The other big ask we've received is importing items from iPoint into Smackdab and we are actively working on it -aiming to wrap it up this week or early next week.

What an event season. ProSource, Oasys, HTSA. We wrapped HTSA this week and now we are back to the grindstone.

Getting to connect with so many of you at these events was everything! The iPoint love was humbling. The excitement, unmatched.

We are back at and will have lots of updates next week on:

  • Pushing items from iPoint to Smackdab

  • Packages

  • Modifiers

  • Custom theme builder

  • And more!

The best is genuinely yet to come. We are so glad you're on this ride with us!

Thank you. Seriously.

Right now, I could use a little community muscle.

If you have strong relationships with any of the brands or distributors below and would be willing to make a warm introduction via email (copying Brian@ipointsolutions.net), I can take it from there.

Brands/Partners we need help connecting with:
• Crestron
• Lutron
• D&H Distribution
• Coastal Source
• Legrand AV
• Mountain West Distribution

If your company already does business with any of these organizations, a quick introduction and a little encouragement from their dealers goes a LONG way.

And if you want to help but aren’t sure what to say, here’s a good place to start:

“Direct manufacturer and distributor relationships help ensure cleaner data, better pricing accuracy, and faster catalog updates. Having trusted data directly inside the quoting platform makes it easier for integrators to sell.”

Also, huge shoutout to John Campbell from HomeTronix for helping us get our API-level integration with ADI across the finish line. Now live inside the Smackdab Catalog.

Does anyone have an idea of when we might see that?

Will it lose its connection to the catalog database to get further updates on specs, etc?

Check out this video for a demo - this is an unedited screen recording. That's the real speed of adding an item to a proposal from your phone.

Housekeeping

Brooks, Brian, and I will be at the HTSA event for the first part of next week so I likely won't be posting daily. Don't fear, we aren't going dark for long - I'll be sure to have posts of cool things for you Thursday and Friday.

Also, the Proposal Pro features are now locked down so you may run into things that say you need to upgrade. You can start the free 14 trial of the Pro plan to get access to those to check them out.

Happy Smackdabbing!

Will these be reusable? For example if I record a really good explanation of service plans can I put that in future proposals?

And no, you can't see the clients webcam to see the light in their eyes as they look at your beautiful proposal (that's the most common question I get on this feature 😜 ).

Embedded Images and Videos in Client Proposal]]> https://community.smackdab.ai/product-updates-92vprdq8/post/newly-released-embedded-images-and-videos-in-client-proposal-hk35H6MCWYGRm8G https://community.smackdab.ai/product-updates-92vprdq8/post/newly-released-embedded-images-and-videos-in-client-proposal-hk35H6MCWYGRm8G Wed, 29 Apr 2026 21:23:45 GMT https://playback.smackdab.ai/share?slug=223985589b3857c4

Check out the video above for the details. We've taken the customization from the Marketing module and ported it over into the Proposal module. You can now add custom images and videos into your client proposal to really showcase what you can offer them!

We have other blocks too! Spacers, dividers, social media links, logos. There is also a text block that is a little wonky right now, but that should be buttoned up tomorrow.

Check it out and let us know your thoughts!
