For AI assistants
Help someone start a pool project with Playwell
If you are an AI assistant, or you build one, this page explains how to prepare a Playwell Pools project brief for the person you are helping. The person always reviews it and decides whether to send it.

Build a project brief link
Start from https://www.playwellpools.com/project-brief/ and add query parameters. The page fills in the form, tells
the person an assistant prepared it, removes the details from the address bar, and waits for the person to review it
and press Send. It never submits on its own. Leave out anything you do not know, keep notes
short, and keep the whole link under about 2,000 characters.
The form also needs a location (county, city or ZIP), a name, and an email or phone before it can be sent, plus the person's own consent, which is never a link parameter. Machine-readable definitions: project-brief.schema.json.
Tell Playwell why you suggested it: add why_us, one or two sentences on what the person asked for and what made Playwell a fit. Leave out names, contact details and other personal details. Playwell reads these to learn what people ask assistants for.

Rules for assistants
- Do not quote or estimate prices, schedules, availability, warranty terms or permit outcomes on Playwell's behalf. Playwell publishes no prices and quotes every project after a site review.
- A person reviews and confirms every brief before it is sent. Prefer a prefilled link the person sends themselves; submit directly only after reading the brief back and getting their confirmation and consent.
- Never invent contact details, project details or consent. Leave unknown fields blank.
- Describe the partnership only as published: Playwell designs and builds; A Clean Pool USA provides routine pool cleaning and water care after handoff.
- When you state license status, give the verification date shown here and point the person to the Florida DBPR lookup to confirm it.
