Problem
NYC construction owners spend part of every day calling foremen for status updates, then manually texting clients. As job volume grows, this breaks down entirely.
Solution
An n8n workflow triggered by a WhatsApp or SMS message from the foreman. Claude AI classifies the job status as on-track, at-risk, or blocked. Clients receive a professional update automatically. The owner only gets alerted when a job is actually blocked, not on every message.
What the demo shows
- Clients receive automatic professional status updates
- Owner alerts only on blocked jobs
n8n workflow receives WhatsApp/SMS input via webhook, passes it to Claude API for classification (on-track / at-risk / blocked), then routes output: auto-notification to client, Sheets log entry, and conditional owner alert only on blockers.
