AI integration

Ask CrewPulse. Your AI does the rest.

Use the AI assistant you already pay for. Connect it to CrewPulse once, then ask in plain language: it answers from your live data and does the admin for you. No extra AI subscription needed.

  • Answers from live data

    Projects, crews, hours, resources, expenses and documents.

  • Does the admin

    Log or correct time, set up projects, review expenses.

  • Stays within your role

    It sees only what you can, and every change is recorded under your name.

Works with your AI assistant once it’s connected. How it works β†’

CrewPulse connector active Your AI assistant
  1. You ask: β€œWhich projects are we running?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: β€œTwo: Smit Residence in Durbanville (3 jobs) and Van der Merwe Residence in Somerset West (3 jobs).”
  2. You ask: β€œIs the Hilux available?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: β€œYes. The Toyota Hilux (CA 123-456) is free, and so are the Isuzu truck and the bridge saw.”
  3. You ask: β€œAny licences expiring this month?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: β€œOne: Thabo Mokoena's forklift operator licence expires in 7 days. A reminder has already gone out.”
  4. You ask: β€œLog 3 hours for Pieter Jacobs on the Smit scullery counter yesterday.” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: β€œDone. 3 hours logged for Pieter Jacobs on Scullery Counter (Smit Residence), recorded under your name.”
