Designed for the field

Most software was built for someone sitting at a desk. The Discovery Workspace was built for a contractor standing in a customer's yard with one hand on a tablet and the other pointing at something dying.

01 · Speak as you walk

Voice memo in. Line items out.

Hit record. Describe what you see in plain English, the way you'd describe it to a coworker. ZeroFi transcribes in real time, then extracts the line items — quantity, unit, and the price from your catalog — as fast as you can talk.

  • Natural language, not a form. "Replace the dead patches near the driveway with premium fescue, maybe 60 square feet" — that's enough.
  • Catalog-grounded. Prices come from your materials and labor catalog. The AI never invents numbers — that's a hard rule.
  • Type if you'd rather. The same workspace accepts typed notes. Voice is preferred outdoors; typing wins indoors or in the truck.

"Front yard sod is dead in three patches near the driveway."

"Boxwoods are stunted from irrigation overspray — let's replace them with something more salt-tolerant. Inkberry holly, about six plants."

"Irrigation heads need adjustment in four zones. Probably an hour for the tech."

✓ Sod replacement (60 sqft, premium fescue) — $840

02 · Snap as you go

Photos that pull their weight.

Tap the camera. Snap the issue. ZeroFi's image analysis flags conditions you might have missed — and quietly adds them to the line items. You walk away with photo-backed scope that protects you in disputes.

  • Site assessment per industry. Solar gets shading and roof-condition flags. Landscaping gets turf health and drainage flags. Each vertical, tuned.
  • Attached to the quote. Photos travel with the proposal PDF. Customer sees what you saw. No "you didn't tell me about that" two months in.
  • Bulk-accept or hand-tune. AI flags are suggestions, not auto-bills. Approve the ones that matter; dismiss the rest.
03 · Real-time assembly

The proposal assembles
while you're still talking.

As soon as the AI recognizes a line item, it appears in the panel — quantity, unit, price, total. By the time you've finished walking the perimeter, the proposal is 90% there. Hit Build Proposal and the cover, approach, scope, and timeline get written.

  • Running total in your peripheral vision. Know what the job is at before you've stopped walking.
  • Edit anything inline. Tap a line item to adjust quantity, swap unit, or remove. No mode switching.
  • Tax + labor + materials split automatically. Math you don't have to do in your head while talking to the customer.

Tablet-first design

Designed for a 10-inch screen.

Most software is desktop-down with a "responsive" tablet view that looks like a phone in a tuxedo. The Discovery Workspace is the other way around: built for the iPad / Surface and scaled up to desktop.

Large tap targets

Buttons sized for thumbs, not cursors. Hit zones meet Apple's HIG and Material guidelines for one-handed use.

One-handed flow

All primary controls in thumb-reach. You don't have to put the tablet down to do anything important.

Side-by-side panels

Transcript on one side, building proposal on the other. The screen real estate of a 10" tablet, fully used.

iPad & Surface

Tested on iPad Pro, iPad Air, and Surface Pro. Works on phones too, but the workspace really shines on 10"+.

Requires an internet connection. Offline mode is not currently supported.

Why this changes everything
