How a mum who sews from home runs her day with TailorSync AI

Amina sews salwars and dresses from a corner of her flat in Sharjah, between school runs. Her hands are usually busy, so she dictates to ChatGPT with her phone's microphone instead of typing. It keeps her customers, measurements and orders in TailorSync.

    Add a new customer, Fatima, phone 050 123 4567. Chest 92, waist 76, hip 98, length 110.

    What happens

    TailorSync adds Fatima with her phone number and saves the measurements as her active set. If the phone number already belonged to a customer, it would use that customer instead of making a second one.

    The two salwars for Noura are done.

    What happens

    The assistant finds Noura's order, ORD-0388, and marks it ready. Then it gets her reminder: her first name, TailorSync's "ready to collect" message and a WhatsApp link, so Amina taps once and sends it.

    She paid the rest in cash.

    What happens

    TailorSync records the AED 120 that was left as a cash payment against ORD-0388, and the order shows as fully paid. It never records more than the balance owed.

    How do I add a second set of measurements for a customer?

    What happens

    She asks the assistant inside the TailorSync app. It answers with the steps from the Help Center, in English or in the other languages it speaks. This one is the in-app helper, not ChatGPT, and it is free for everyone signed in.
