The four automations that do the work

Paint Quantity Calculator

Customer gives room dimensions, bot estimates litres of paint needed based on standard coverage rates you configure per brand.

Daily Rate List Broadcast

Sends your current price list for cement, paint, and hardware items to regular contractor customers whenever rates change.

Bulk Order Quote Request

Captures item list and quantity for bulk contractor orders, then routes it to you to send back a quote instead of a shop visit.

Urgent Delivery Request Routing

Collects site address and item list for same-day delivery requests and flags them for immediate dispatch during active project work.

The Instagram side

Discovery happens on Instagram โ€” ZapUp runs both

Contractors and homeowners find shade and finish ideas through before-after reels on Instagram. ZapUp answers shade availability in DM and shifts the order and delivery address to WhatsApp for confirmation.

Before you ask

Can I automate WhatsApp for my hardware or paint store?

Yes. ZapUp can answer stock, rate, and paint-quantity questions automatically, and capture urgent site delivery requests so contractors don't need to call and wait for someone to check the shelf.

Can it calculate exact paint quantity for any room?

It gives an estimate based on the room dimensions the customer provides and standard coverage rates you set per brand. Final quantity confirmation still depends on wall condition and coat count, which your staff can adjust.

Can contractors get same-day delivery requests handled faster?

Yes, urgent delivery requests with site address and item list are captured immediately and flagged separately from routine enquiries, so your team can prioritize dispatch.
