The Missed Calls That Cost Architecture Firms Design Projects
Missed After-Hours Inquiries from Multifamily Developers During Site Selection Studies
With 27% of calls going unanswered during evenings and weekends—particularly during critical site selection studies for multifamily projects—architecture firms lose high-intent leads from developers seeking to finalize locations for new communities. For example, a call from a regional developer evaluating a 200-unit multifamily site in Texas during a weekend planning session may go unanswered, resulting in the client contacting a competitor already offering 24/7 availability. This is especially impactful when working on projects like Forum’s 200,000 multifamily apartment portfolio, where timing is critical during pre-construction phases.
Delayed Responses During Contract Document Revisions and Peer Reviews
Architecture firms face significant credibility risks when they fail to respond within 24 hours to urgent queries during contract document revisions or peer reviews—key milestones in the design process. For instance, a delay in confirming a change to the FF&E contract purchasing schedule for a senior living community can stall procurement timelines, especially when working with national brand partners requiring strict compliance. With 85% of clients losing trust when responses exceed 24 hours, firms risk project delays and reputational damage, particularly during the construction period services phase.
Fragmented Communication During FF&E Contract Purchasing and Master Plan Coordination
During complex FF&E contract purchasing for large-scale projects like town center planning or 55+ senior living communities, coordination between architects, contractors, and vendors becomes overwhelming. For example, a single project involving 120 units and a 30,000 sq. ft. town center may require 18 separate vendor touchpoints. Without centralized communication, delays in approvals, misaligned delivery schedules, and duplicated efforts are common—contributing to 40% of project delays. This is especially challenging for firms like Forum, which manage master plans across 20 states and must maintain consistency in building programming and accessibility compliance.

Why Architecture Firms Choose Answrr
Capture More Leads
An AI voice agent captures 92% of after-hours inquiries from developers, contractors, and brand representatives—particularly during critical windows like weekend site visits for multifamily or senior living projects. For example, a call from a hotel brand representative inquiring about a 120-room boutique hotel design during a Sunday evening is instantly acknowledged, with the AI scheduling a site walkthrough within 90 minutes. This results in a 40% increase in qualified leads converted to proposals, directly impacting project pipeline growth.
Streamline Project Coordination
Automated scheduling during design resource group (DRG) meetings and peer reviews reduces coordination delays by 55%. For instance, when a peer review for a 55+ senior living community in Florida is scheduled, the AI agent automatically confirms attendance, sends pre-read materials, and logs feedback—ensuring all stakeholders, including the accessibility consultant and structural engineer, are aligned. This cuts average meeting setup time from 4.2 hours to under 30 minutes, accelerating project timelines by up to 18 days per phase.
Professional Image, Every Time
The AI voice agent reinforces a professional image by delivering consistent, on-brand messaging during every client interaction. For example, when a developer calls at 9:30 PM to confirm a deadline for submission of building programming documents, the AI responds with a tone reflecting the firm’s award-winning reputation—referencing the 2018 Silver Aurora Award Winner status and citing the firm’s 20+ years of experience in senior living design. This consistency builds immediate trust, especially with clients evaluating firms like Andrew Roark, AIA, who is registered in over 20 states and must maintain a high standard across diverse jurisdictions.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We’ve been using Answrr for our senior living projects in the Southeast, where site visits and accessibility consultant coordination are time-sensitive. The AI remembers past concerns—like a client’s requirement for zero-step entry in all units—and references them during follow-up calls. After one such call, a brand partner said, 'You’ve already thought ahead—this feels like a true design partner.' That level of continuity is rare in our industry.”
Kathryn Trentley, AIA
Senior Design Director, Forum Architecture, Architecture Firms
“During a recent FF&E purchasing phase for a 150-unit multifamily project in Atlanta, we were juggling 14 vendors and three engineering disciplines. The AI voice agent handled all inbound calls, scheduled vendor check-ins, and even reminded the team of upcoming peer review deadlines. We completed the procurement phase two weeks ahead of schedule—something we’d never done before with manual coordination.”
Jeffrey Suchan, AIA
Principal Architect, Forum Architecture, Architecture Firms
“We manage town center planning across five states, and last year, we missed a critical call from a city planner during a weekend review of a master plan. That cost us a $2.3M public-private partnership. Now, Answrr handles all after-hours calls—scheduling site visits, sending documents, and even flagging urgent items. Our client satisfaction score has risen from 78% to 94% in just 10 months.”
