For HVAC and plumbing contractors

Every system you install, with an assistant that knows it.

Put a sticker on each furnace, heat pump, boiler and water heater. The homeowner scans it and asks how to work the remote, clean the filters or read a blinking light, answered from the manufacturer's manuals and your own handoff notes, with safety first. When it needs a technician, the service request reaches you already explained.

$299 per location, unlimited systems. Nothing for homeowners to download.

See it in action

A homeowner and a new heat pump, recorded live.

A homeowner asks her new heat pump about the steam off the outdoor unit, sends a photo of a blinking light, and asks for a technician. Nothing on the assistant's side is scripted.

The first cold night brings the calls.

"Why is steam coming off the outdoor unit?" "What does the blinking light mean?" "Which mode do I use?" Homeowners call your office, or they wait until something is really wrong. Most answers are in a manual they have never opened. Talking Manual answers from that manual, for that exact model, at 11 pm, and when it genuinely needs a technician, your dispatcher gets the model, the serial number, the symptom and whether the home has heat, before anyone picks up the phone.

It knows this system

The manual for this unit, not a guess.

A general chatbot knows heat pumps in general. The homeowner needs to know what this model's blinking light means, and your team needs a request it can act on.

What homeowners ask it

"How do I clean the filters?" "What's the best mode for winter?" "What does this light mean?" (with a photo) "Why is it blowing cold air?" "The water heater is leaking." "It isn't heating. Can someone come?"

How it works

One sticker per system. Manuals once per model.

1

Add the system

Make, model, serial and the homeowner. Manuals we hold load automatically; upload any other once per model, and your labor warranty and maintenance plan once for every system.

2

Film the handoff (optional)

A one- or two-minute video from the technician: where the filter, the disconnect and the shut-offs are, and what's normal. We turn it into a guide you check and publish.

3

Stick it on

Print the sticker, one system or six to a sheet, and put it on the equipment beside your service sticker. Add the code to the invoice or the handoff email.

No integration project. Service requests arrive in your inbox as a complete email, ready for the dispatch or field-service software you already use.

A real one, working today

Ask a ductless heat pump.

The demo is a heat pump installed by a fictional contractor. It answers from the manufacturer's own manuals and the installer's handoff video. Ask what a homeowner would ask on a cold night, or send it a photo.

Voice works best on a phone. In the demo, service requests are simulated.

What your company gets

Fewer "how do I" calls, and better service calls.

Fewer "how do I" calls

Remotes, modes, filters, defrost and blinking lights: answered from the manual, so your office and techs can work.

Service calls you can dispatch

Model, serial, address, symptom or code, whether there's heat or hot water, access and a confirmed number. The right parts on the truck.

Safety first, every time

Gas and carbon monoxide get the safety steps before anything else. It never helps bypass a safety switch, touch refrigerant or adjust gas.

No promises you didn't make

Arrival times, prices and warranty coverage are never promised. It quotes your terms and sends the request; you decide.

Your name on every answer

The sticker and the assistant carry your company, so the homeowner calls you, not whoever shows up first in a search.
