Why video changes the game
A kitchen refit has twenty decisions tied up in its layout: where the hob goes, which wall runs the cabinets, what's behind the fridge, how the boiler pipes drop into the utility. You could take twenty photos. Or you could spend 30 seconds walking through the kitchen with your phone pointed at the scope. The video captures it once, the AI processes it all together, and you get one coherent priced quote.
Kitchens, bathrooms, loft conversions, landscaping, and any job where the space matters more than individual items are where video shines. Photos alone miss context. Video gets it.
Powered by Gemini multimodal AI
QuickPrice uses Google's Gemini model because it's built multimodal from the ground up. Most other AI quoting tools are text wrappers, they describe a photo as text, then reason about that text. Gemini processes the video itself, catching temporal patterns a frame-by-frame approach misses: how someone walks around an island, where the sink sits relative to the window, what the boiler flue does when the camera pans up.
The result: fewer follow-up questions, fewer missing line items, more accurate first-pass pricing on complex jobs.
How to film a useful walkthrough
- Keep it under a minute. 30 seconds is the sweet spot. Longer videos don't help the AI and slow processing.
- Walk slowly. The AI handles motion well but running pans blur detail.
- Narrate while filming, your voice is captured alongside the video and gives the AI context.
- Pan up and down at key points, boilers, ceilings, soil stacks, so the AI sees the vertical elements.
- End with a close-up of anything unusual, a non-standard fitting, a damaged section, a hidden access point.
Use cases by trade
Kitchen fitters, walk the kitchen, narrate unit positions, appliance locations, and service runs. The AI builds a kitchen-fit quote from the walkthrough.
Bathroom fitters, film the existing suite, pan up to the ceiling extractor, show the pipework route under the sink. Full refit quote from the video.
Landscapers, walk the garden narrating scope: “this area is getting a patio, the fence runs down the left”. Patios, fencing, and turf priced together.
Builders, walk through the rooms that need reconfiguring. The AI follows the scope across spaces and prices multi-room projects coherently.
