Measure Once: AI-Built Apps for Blinds and Curtains Companies

With Mythex, a blinds and curtains company can build a website, a home consultation booker and a quoting app that stores every window's width, drop and fabric once. Describe it in chat, check the live preview, and publish.

Where made-to-measure work goes wrong

The expensive mistakes in this trade are small ones. A drop written as 1450 in the notebook becomes 1540 on the supplier form. A recess measurement gets ordered as exact fit. The same bay window is typed into three order portals by someone who was not at the visit. Then there is the time between order and fitting: weeks while products are made, a fitter who should not be booked until the parcel lands, and a customer asking whether the bedroom blackout has arrived. What a company like yours needs is a record per window that carries from the adviser's visit through the quote, the supplier order and the fitting day without anyone re-typing it.

• Window-by-window measurements with room, width, drop and fit type
• Consultation slots sized by how many windows the house has
• Quotes that price each window from width, drop and fabric band
• Orders followed from deposit to supplier to fitting
• Sample books tracked by who has them
• Remakes logged with their cause

What you can build for blinds and curtains companies

Room-by-room quotes priced from width and drop

Enter each window and its measurements; the quote prices it from the product, fabric band and size, with linings, motors and fitting as clear extras. Subtotals per room let a customer drop the spare bedroom to fit a budget instead of cancelling the whole house. A validity date protects you when supplier price lists change in spring.

Build a quoting app for a blinds and curtains company. A quote has rooms, each room has windows with width, drop, recess or exact fit, product type and fabric price band. Price each window from a price grid I can edit, add optional extras for blackout lining, motorisation and fitting, show a subtotal per room, and set a 30-day validity date.

A customer file that keeps every window's size

Each customer holds their rooms and windows with measurements, chosen fabrics and the order status from quote to supplier, delivery and fitting. When they come back next year for the kitchen, you can quote from the stored sizes without another visit. A follow-up list shows who is still deciding between two fabrics after the consultation.

Make a CRM for my blinds and curtains business. Each customer has an address and a list of windows with room, width, drop, fit type and fabric. Track each order through quoted, deposit paid, ordered from supplier, delivered and fitted. Add a list of customers who had a visit but have not ordered yet.

Home visits booked by the number of windows

Customers say how many windows and rooms they want covered, and the booker allows a short slot for one room or two hours for a whole house. Postcodes route each visit to the adviser who covers that area. Fitting appointments only open once an order's products have arrived, with a reminder to clear the windowsills the day before.

Create a booking system for home consultations. The customer enters their postcode, number of windows and rooms. Visits for 1–3 windows take 45 minutes, 4–8 take 90 minutes, more take 2 hours. Assign each booking to the adviser covering that postcode area and send a confirmation.

A website organised the way homeowners think

Pages for roller, Roman, Venetian and vertical blinds, curtains, shutters and motorised options, plus a gallery sorted by room: blackout for a child's bedroom, privacy for a bathroom, a bay in the lounge. Add a home visit form and a page on child safety features for corded products. Check the rules that apply where you trade before writing that page.

Build a website for a made-to-measure blinds, curtains and shutters company. Include product pages for each blind type, a gallery filtered by room, a page about child-safe options, and a home visit request form that asks for postcode, rooms and number of windows.

Sample books checked out like stock

Supplier sample books are costly to replace and easy to lose in a car boot or a customer's living room. Check each book out to an adviser or a customer with a date, and see at a glance which ones are overdue. Count tracks, poles, brackets and motor units per van too, so a fitter is not short a bracket on site.

Make an inventory app for a blinds company. Track supplier sample books with who has them (adviser or customer) and since when, and flag any out for more than 14 days. Also track tracks, poles, brackets and motor units by location: store or each fitter's van.

Day one: windows, not products

Build the data around the window, because that is the thing measured and the thing that goes wrong. Each window gets a room name, width, drop, recess or exact fit, product and fabric code. Quotes, supplier orders and fitting sheets then read from the same row. Start with your own price grid for your two or three main products; add the rest once advisers are using it on visits.

• Window record: room, width, drop, fit type, product, fabric
• One price grid per product and fabric band
• Order status: quoted, deposit, ordered, arrived, fitted

Tracking remakes so they stop

Every remake costs a second product and a second visit. Tag each one with its cause: wrong measurement, wrong fabric code, supplier fault or customer change of mind. After a few months a dashboard shows whether the problem is one adviser, one supplier's order form, or a product that is hard to measure, and you fix that one thing.
