What Vocito does for you

Architect = 12-24 months from sketch to handover. Vocito catches every moment.

Clients leave your firm at every phase: between intake and quote (too slow), between permit and build (too complex), during build (no update). Vocito keeps everyone engaged.

How it works

Three features for long sales cycles with multiple stakeholders.

Project intake with visualisation questions

AI asks: type of project (new build, renovation, interior), sq m, location + zoning check, desired style (modern, classic, eco), budget indication, desired delivery. Collects reference images via WhatsApp. Schedules introductory meeting. Sketch phase can start with full brief.

Multi-stakeholder coordination

Per project: client + contractor + council + subcontractors (structural engineer, MEP). Vocito becomes central hub. Contractor asks question = AI checks client approval + escalates emergency. Client has change = AI confirms budget impact + planning impact + sends contractor.

Phase updates + visualisation sharing

Per project phase (sketch, preliminary design, definitive, building permit, build) auto update to client with progress + visual renders. 3D renders via shared link, client can give feedback via WhatsApp. Keep client warm during long wait times.

Real numbers

"Architecture is long sales cycles. Previously we lost clients during the permit phase because we had no contact for months. With Vocito clients get automatic updates about every step with the council. Result: 45% more projects continue to build phase, no more "we've decided to wait"."

Frequently asked

What architecture firms ask before they start

Does this work with my project software (Archicad, Revit, ProjectWise)?
Vocito is not a replacement — it's a communication and coordination layer. CSV export from project software works for client data and project status. For visualisations: link sharing to Archicad/Revit renders directly in WhatsApp/email.
Can AI answer conceptual questions about architecture?
AI answers operational questions ("when is the next phase?", "how is the permit going?"). Conceptual/design questions ("what do you think of this idea?") AI always escalates to the architect. Clients don't notice the difference.
What about subcontractors (structural engineer, MEP)?
Per project you can connect subcontractors. They get access to file info via client portal. AI coordinates communication between you, client, main contractor and subcontractors. No more email spaghetti.
How does AI handle council correspondence?
Permit correspondence still goes through you (legal responsibility). But Vocito tracks every request, deadline and status. On council update, client gets automatic translation into understandable language. For permit applications: pre-fill forms with project data.
Doesn't this cost more than a communication employee?
Communication employee: €3-4k/month for client updates and coordination. Vocito from €299/mo does the same + 24/7 + automatic updates. For architecture firms with 10+ ongoing projects: immediate ROI plus less client churn.

45% more projects to build phase. No forgotten clients.
