Installation companies typically juggle a mix of new-build projects, renovations and service maintenance. That demands tight administration: logging technician hours to the correct project, tracking delivery tickets and material per project and invoicing on time. With Bouw Botje you connect Exact Online Construction to your AI assistant via the MCP protocol. Ask where a technician is scheduled today, which tasks are still open, which hours still need to be logged, and which projects can be invoiced. Whether you are a one-person installation business or run 50 technicians — AI saves hours of admin every day.
