    What Volty does with Basecamp

    Basecamp keeps each project's to-dos, messages and files in one place. Volty connects to Basecamp with one sign-in. It can read the projects and to-dos it is given, so a client asking about their drawings hears where the work stands, and a request can become a to-do on the right project.

    • Status from the to-dos

      Volty reads what is done and what is next before it replies.

    • Requests become to-dos

      A client's request becomes a to-do on their project.

    • Answers from the message board

      Volty reads the project's messages for what was agreed.

    • Approval on every write

      Writes start Off, and each can be set to wait for a colleague.

    Could we look at adding a skylight over the stairs?
    VoltyI'll pass that to Joanne. Is it for daylight only, or would you like it to open for ventilation as well?
    Both if possible.

    Common questions

    Can Volty change records in Basecamp?

    Only when an admin allows it. Every tool has its own switch: tools that only read can be turned on, and tools that change a record start Off. A tool that is on can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague to approve it.

    How much does it cost to connect Basecamp with Volty?

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
