If you can describe it, we can build it.
Custom software for home and field-service businesses. Dispatch boards, the tech's phone, customer texts, estimates and the numbers behind them. Scroll to fix one.
OP 00 — The call
Every project starts with something that isn't working.
An AC humming in 105° heat. A spreadsheet that's outgrown itself. Either way, we start by looking.
What we can build
A few things to click through.
Every one of these works. Click around: it all runs on invented data. Yours would be shaped around how your business actually runs.
The whole company, working
One app, from the phone ringing to paid.
Calls matched to the customer, a dispatch board that moves on its own, the tech's phone with good-better-best options, texts the customer gets, members and money. A year of invented East Valley history underneath, on a 114° Monday.

Pocket tools
Small tools that earn their keep.
Not every win is a big system. These are the quick numbers you work out in the truck, done properly: on your phone, with a picture, and the formula shown. Free to use.
Fitting angle
Measure center to center. Subtract your fittings' take-off from the travel to get the cut length.

true offset = √(set² + roll²) · travel = offset ÷ sin θ · run = offset ÷ tan θ

Ideas to get you thinking
Things people ask us for.
Tap one to see how we'd build it. Most are small; all of them save time every week.
Use the tech's location from the field app and send the arrival text automatically, with a live map link.
Photos taken in the field app land on the invoice and in the customer's history, with no emailing back and forth.
Recurring agreements schedule the visit, remind the customer and charge the card on file.
Revenue against labor, materials and drive time, by job type, tech and neighborhood.
Your price book on a phone: pick the service and size, add options, get a signed estimate.
A polite sequence of reminders for estimates that didn't close, stopped the moment they reply.
Parts used on jobs deduct from truck inventory; each morning, a restock list per truck.
After the job, a one-tap rating. Fives get a review link; anything lower goes to you first.
TKT 0713 — Owner view
The owner view is a service ticket.
Readings against spec, what's out, and what to do first, every morning. Read from the dispatch board, invoices and phones you already have. Nothing in your systems is changed.
“Where does the day stand before the phones get busy?”

Routing
Small, scoped, and written down.
One project at a time, so the one we're running gets done properly. Like a work order on the truck, you always know the next stop, what it costs and when it's done.

Tolerances
The tolerances we hold.
Built around how you work
We start from your process, not a template. Replacing a tool you hate, filling a gap, or connecting what you already have: the software fits the business, not the other way round.
You own it
Your code, your data, your accounts. If we ever part ways, you keep everything and it keeps running.
AI-assisted, human-verified
We build with AI coding tools, which is why custom work is affordable now. Every change is tested and checked by a person, and your data stays out of tools you haven't approved.
Honest demos
Everything on this site runs on invented sample data. No fake clients, no fake testimonials, no made-up savings.
Who's on the job
An engineer who has run the machines and run the trucks.
Running a service business and building software for service operations. Mechanical engineering and hands-on machining. Less time explaining why the crew hates the app, more time building the thing that fixes it.
