“How does this make me money?”

  1. You talk through the day
  2. Opulence builds the scrapbook
  3. Your client picks who gets it
  4. It goes out every week, automatically
  5. Friends & family see your name
= referrals from people you’ve never met

It's human nature to want to share exciting news, especially when there's a significant investment involved. When people hire you and you give them an easy, no-risk way to share beautiful updates, they jump at it.

Those updates carry your branding and contact information, so you're creating a positive emotional connection with people you haven't even met. They refer you even if they don't need your services directly, because everyone wants to be the person who knows the right people.

Architect referrals work the same way: you stay in front of the people who make the decisions, and you make them look good. Opulence does both.

Opulence AI instantly translates your technical field notes into beautiful, easy-to-understand project updates for homeowners. When clients see consistent, professional proof of your progress, the app gives them an automated, frictionless way to share that proof with neighbors and friends.

Yes. We suggest snapping progress photos in the app while you speak. Opulence pairs the visuals with your audio to create complete, bulletproof site records and visual marketing updates.

No. Every photo in a scrapbook is a real photo you or your crew took on the job site. Opulence's AI writes the update, but the photos are always yours.

AI-generated images would make your clients question what they are looking at. Authentic job site photos are what build real trust and real connections with your clients, their friends and family, and the architects you work with.

Never. The app is designed to only send what your clients want, and you are in full control of what they receive.

Never. You don't even have the ability to see their contact information, so your clients won't feel awkward about sharing their progress.

Absolutely. In fact, mid-construction is the best time. By sharing visual, structured daily updates, you build massive trust early on, turning your active job sites into your best marketing billboards before the project is even finished.

02 · Time, effort & usability

“Is this going to waste my time?”

Opulence AI is built specifically for the field. Our audio processing filters out background construction noise, like heavy machinery, drilling, or wind, so you can speak naturally without pausing work.

Not at all. Just talk exactly like you're explaining the job to a foreman or a client. The AI handles the formatting, categorizing, and translating of your natural speech into structured data.

We suggest spending three minutes a day, but it can realistically be done in under 60 seconds. Instead of typing for 15 minutes at the end of the day, you just talk as you walk the job site and you're done.

Yes. You can record your photos and voice reports completely offline. Opulence safely saves your data locally and automatically syncs and processes the second you hit cellular or Wi-Fi range.

03 · Integrations & technicals

“Will this fit my workflow?”

Opulence is built for teams. You can invite your field supervisors or subcontractors to log their own voice reports, keeping all site data, progress tracking, and reports organized under one roof.

No. Your clients receive updates by email, and the links to share them with friends and family open a private web portal that's easy to access without creating an account. They can choose to download or print everything from the links in their email.

Yes. Every voice-first report is instantly converted into a professional PDF summary. You can download, print, or email it with a single tap for liability protection or client sign-offs. Every scrapbook can be downloaded, printed, and shared the same way.

Those are heavy operational tools built for complex scheduling and invoicing. Opulence is a voice-first field marketing tool designed to make daily reporting effortless for your crew while turning that daily work into a referral pipeline that wins you more jobs.

04 · Industry logic & strategy

“Why should I use this?”

Based on NAHB data and the best cited return on ad spend, paid marketing and SEO can account for at most about 31% of a custom home builder’s revenue. That means at least 69% comes from relationships and referrals, which consistently bring in the highest-paying, most loyal customers. Opulence is designed to maximize your most powerful existing revenue stream. See the full math in our Marketing Playbook.

Architects are a major source of high-paying professional referrals. Opulence turns your daily field updates into elegant weekly progress scrapbooks. Architects love receiving these visual updates, and they keep your company top of mind for their next major project.

Yes. Five-star Google reviews and strong website SEO are great for driving initial traffic, but in custom building they don't make nearly the splash that direct referrals do.

The best way to improve your overall marketing is to get your current clients and architects working for you, by giving them an engaging weekly progress timeline they want to receive and share.

05 · Pricing & free features

“What do I get?”

Just $19/month for up to 8 users. Your entire field team gets voice-first reporting, progress scrapbooks, and the automated client referral pipeline.
