FF&E install-date scoring The schedule knows what is going to be late.
A spreadsheet tells you what you ordered, not that the sofa lands a month after install, and you hear on install day. Techstyles counts every lead time on your FF&E schedule back from the day it is needed on site.

Client and contractor portals, both included Clients and trades, on the same page.
The client portal
Approvals, updates and invoices for your client, in one place.
The contractor portal
The drawings, schedules and items each trade needs, with insurance on file and every revision request logged.
UK invoicing, VAT and Xero From approved estimate to reconciled payment.
Invoices and VAT in GBP, synced to Xero, with paid status coming back.
Raise it
Approved items and purchase orders become an invoice, with the lines and VAT already on it.
Send it
It goes to the client with a PDF and live status, so “has that been sent?” stops being a conversation.
Reconcile it
It syncs to Xero, the paid status comes back, and the project figures update themselves.

It drafts your emails, turns notes into actions, briefs you each morning and flags procurement risks. Nothing is sent until you approve it.
What it will and will not do →- Emails
- It drafts the reply to a client or supplier in your studio’s voice, ready for you to edit and send.
- Notes

- Daily brief
- Each morning, what needs you today, drawn from your tasks, invoices and calendar.
- Procurement

Questions
What studios ask first.
Something not covered? Write to the people who build it: hello@techstyles.ai
Can you move our live projects across?
Yes. Send us a live schedule or spreadsheet and we load it before your first login, so you try Techstyles on a real project, not a demo.
Do clients and contractors cost extra?
No. The client and contractor portals come with every user, and there are no per-project fees.
What happens after the 30 days?
You carry on at £49 per user a month, or walk away. No card up front, no annual contract, and you can export everything to Excel or CSV at any time.
Looking for a Programa or Houzz Pro alternative?
Techstyles is interior design software built for UK studios around the install date. Every FF&E line is scored against the day it is needed on site, invoices go to Xero in GBP with UK VAT, and the client and contractor portals come with every user. Techstyles vs Programa →Techstyles vs Houzz Pro →
How is our data handled?
Your data stays yours. Techstyles is run in line with UK GDPR, and we can sign a data processing agreement for your studio.
Does the assistant send anything on its own?
Never. It drafts emails, notes and the daily brief, and flags procurement risks; a person approves everything that leaves the studio.
Week eleven. The sofa is in, on time.
30-day free trial, no card. Send one live schedule and by your first login you will see which lines are going to be late. Rather see it first? A person walks you through it.
