AI for home services and trades

AI answers calls while the crew is on the tools, books and dispatches jobs, and turns site notes into quotes and invoices the same day.

Where the time goes today

  1. Calls go to voicemail while technicians are on a job, and the customer rings the next business.

  2. Quotes sit in a notebook or a phone's camera roll for days before they are sent.

  3. Dispatch is juggled on a whiteboard, and one sick day reshuffles the whole week.

  4. Invoices go out late, and overdue payments get chased only when cash is tight.
