Reply to a client without switching apps.

Quick reply is the button that lets you answer a client from the screen you are already on, instead of switching to Messages, losing the invoice you were looking at, and missing their reply when it comes back. In DIRT it sits on any client-linked screen — client record, job, or invoice — shows recent conversation history, and sends SMS or email from your business number. The message logs to the client record, so months later the conversation is still attached to the work it was about.

The problem

Client texts you about an invoice. You're in DIRT looking at the invoice. You switch to Messages to reply. Then switch back to DIRT. Then the client replies in Messages and you miss it because you're back in DIRT. You're context-switching on something that should take 30 seconds.

Why we built it

Replying to a client should happen from the place where their work lives. Quick reply puts a text or email compose right on the client record — you see the invoice, write the reply, send it, all in the same screen.

How it works

  1. 1

    From any client record, invoice, or job, tap "Reply."

  2. 2

    Type your message — SMS or email, depending on the client's preference.

  3. 3

    Message sends from your DIRT Line. Conversation logs to the client record.

What changes for your business

Common questions

What is quick reply in DIRT?

A reply button on any client record, job, or invoice. You see the client's work context — the job details, the invoice — and send a text or email without switching to another app.

Where does the message go when I use quick reply?

It goes from your DIRT Line business number and logs to the client's conversation history in the app. No copy-pasting, no app switching, no losing context.

Can I reply from a job screen or invoice screen?

Yes. The reply button is available on any client-linked screen — client record, job, invoice. Wherever you're looking at their work, you can message them.

Does the reply go from my personal number?

No. It goes from your DIRT Line business number. Your personal cell stays off client records.

How is this different from texting from my phone?

When you text from your phone, the conversation lives in Messages — disconnected from the job and invoice. Quick reply keeps the message in DIRT, right next to the work it's about.

Can I send email from quick reply too?

Yes. Depending on the client's preferred contact method, you can send SMS or email from the same compose screen.

Does quick reply show previous messages?

Yes. The compose panel shows recent conversation history so you have context before you send.

What plan includes quick reply?

Quick reply works with any client you've messaged through DIRT's two-way SMS inbox — part of the DIRT Line on Ops.
