Extras Billed, Not Forgotten.

Mechanical, electrical, HVAC and general contractors lose money in the gaps: the extra done on site and never written up, the proposal rebuilt from last year’s file, the service call that sat in voicemail. We build small tools for those gaps. Your rates and markups stay on rules.

WHAT WE USUALLY HEAR
Extras done on site and forgotten by invoice time.
Every proposal starts from last year’s file.
Service calls sit in voicemail until lunch.
WHERE WE’D START

Four Jobs Worth Handing Over.

Each one is a single task, a fixed price and written tests you watch pass. A Skill is a set of instructions Claude follows the same way every time. An App is a browser tool built for your business.

OFF THE SHELF OR CUSTOM

Estimating Software Too Big?

Full estimating suites are built for firms with a dedicated estimator. If your estimator is also the owner, the PM and the person who answers the phone, a small tool built around how you already price jobs can be the better fit. If an off-the-shelf estimating package suits you, we’ll say so.

ON THE FIRST CALL

What We’ll Ask You.

  1. How do extras get from the site to the invoice today?
  2. What does your last proposal have in common with the one before it?
  3. Who answers the service line, and what happens after hours?
WHERE WE WORK

On-Site Where You Are.

We come to your yard, shop or office, and work remote when that’s easier. More about us.
