## What it is for
Powder coat, resling, recushion. Sell the set, not the chair.

The buyer is an owner or operator of a outdoor furniture restoration business
who is currently running the work across a calendar, a phone, a notebook and a
separate invoicing tool. xPATIOx replaces that with one record per customer
and one record per job, carried from intake through pricing, dispatch, proof
of work, invoice and settlement.

## Category
Specialty & Restoration — Craft work priced per piece or per wall. The before-and-after is the entire
marketing engine.

## What the platform assesses
Frame and fabric photos classify material and damage, and price restoration
against the cost of replacement.

The assessment never sets prices. Quantities come from what was measured or
counted; rates come from the operator's own book. That is what makes two
people pricing the same job land on the same number.

## How work is priced

## Frequently asked
### Is xPATIOx a separate product from the Biz Dev App?
No. xPATIOx is the outdoor furniture restoration configuration of the Biz Dev
App — the same platform, the same ledger, the same support, scaffolded with
the 16 modules and 5 record types this trade actually uses. If the business
later adds a second line of work, it does not mean a second subscription; it
means another vertical switched on in the same workspace.

### How does xPATIOx price a job?
On per piece by frame material and treatment, with set discounts. The basis
lives in the workspace rather than in an estimator's head, so the same job
quoted by two people produces the same number. Your own rates, your own
catalogue — the platform supplies the structure and the arithmetic, never the
prices.

### What does it connect to that we already use?
Powder coat suppliers, Outdoor fabric mills, Stripe, QuickBooks are wired
first, because those are what a outdoor furniture restoration business is
usually already running. Anything else goes through the xCONNECTx public API
catalogue rather than a custom build.

### What happens to the data we already have?
It comes in. The archive import pipeline takes historical customers, jobs and
invoices and lands them as real records — searchable, reportable, attached to
the right customer — rather than as a folder of PDFs nobody opens. The point
of moving is to keep the last five years, not to start over.

## Built on Biz Dev App
xPATIOx is one of 74 service verticals on the Biz Dev App — the operating
system for the AI economy. The leading and trailing x are platform brackets:
Cross-Connect Protocol in, Cross-Connect Protocol out. Every vertical shares
one identity, one ledger (XODIAK) and one settlement rail, so a business that
runs two lines of work runs them in one workspace rather than two
subscriptions.
