The real app in your trade's words · demo shop data

### Every part of the office. One app.

-   **Today**: Jobs, money in and estimates out on one screen. Hoss lists what he handled with the time.
-   **Dispatch**: Every tech on one timeline. Hoss picks a tech for each open job from your own records. One tap assigns it.
-   **Schedule**: Day and week views of every job with its customer and its tech.
-   **Next actions**: One finishable list of everything that needs a person, from jobs to money.
-   **Inbox**: Every customer conversation in one place. Routine texts send themselves. Anything about money waits for approval.
-   **Estimates**: Every quote on one board from waiting on you to approved. Hoss nudges the ones gone quiet.
-   **Invoices**: Every dollar owed and every late invoice. Reminders go out on their own and stop the moment it's paid.
-   **Price book**: What every item sold for on your jobs and how often it won. Your shop sets the price.
-   **Customers**: Every customer and every home with every past visit. Who lives there, who pays and who owns.
-   **Equipment**: Every unit at every house with its age and refrigerant. Hoss flags what is due for a replacement talk.
-   **Stock and purchasing**: What is on the shelf and in each truck, and what to order.
-   **Books**: Bank entries matched to their jobs, invoices and receipts. Anything off waits for a review.
-   **Reports**: Booked, billed and collected money by day and by tech.
-   **Shop workflows**: Tell Hoss how a kind of work should happen. He tests it on your own history first and changes nothing until you approve.

### One sentence closes the job.

Your tech says what happened. HandledIQ fills in what was wrong, what they did and how they left it. The invoice drafts from your price book and waits for your approval.

What was wrong

-   **Getting in** Live

    The gate code, the dog and every past note at that house are on the tech's phone.

-   **Snap the label** Live

    Reads make, model and serial from the rating plate. It states only what the label shows.

-   **Works offline** Live

    Notes and photos save on the phone and send when signal returns.

### Hoss does the office work. You approve.

Hoss reads what your crew says and the photos they take. He books the costs, drafts the follow ups and lists every step. Anything about money waits for you.

### No app. No login. A link.

Homeowners get a price and a time. Then a heads up and a record of the work. Every link carries your shop's name.

### Money waits for approval.

Hoss reads and prepares. Code checks the prices, the permissions and the math. A person approves anything that touches money.

-   Queued texts never show as sent
-   Sent texts never show as delivered
-   Approved invoices never show as paid
-   Fixed mistakes keep the original

### Your records work for your shop. No one else.

#### Never sold, never used for others

No AI trains on your records for anyone but your shop. Nobody else's ads use them. Hoss runs on our own computers. The terms promise it, for records we already hold too.

#### Connected AI sees what you allow

Your ChatGPT or Claude reads your jobs, schedule and money. Customers show as stand‑ins until you tick one box. Settings shows what it read today.

#### Leave with everything

Customers, jobs and invoices download as spreadsheets other apps take in, with your call recordings. Close the shop on the same page and you get 7 days to change your mind. Within 30 days we delete your records and send a signed receipt.

### Move over one part at a time.

#### Bring your records

Customers, jobs and invoices come over from Jobber, ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, FieldEdge, Workiz, QuickBooks, Square, your phone's contacts or a spreadsheet. Photos of a paper invoice book work too.

#### Start with the schedule

Run tomorrow's jobs in HandledIQ first. Texting, payments and books follow when each one is ready.

#### Undo any import

Every import can be undone. Export every record and original photo any time.

### Straight answers.

Something else? [Book a walkthrough](https://handlediq.com/contact/) or email [hello@handlediq.com](mailto:hello@handlediq.com).

#### Is HandledIQ live today?

Yes. The app runs at app.handlediq.com and shops sign up at /start. Texting, card payments, the phone line and QuickBooks Online or Desktop run on your shop's own accounts, connected in a few minutes.

#### What does it cost?

Your price follows your shop's size: how many different people worked in the field that month. Every feature comes with every size. Founding prices for shops that start by November 30, 2026: HandledIQ Crew is $199 a month for 1 to 3 people. HandledIQ Shop is $499 a month for 4 to 15 people. HandledIQ Fleet is $999 a month for 16 to 40 people. Each person past 40 adds $25 a month. Your founding prices hold at every size you grow into, for as long as you stay. From December 1 new shops pay $299 or $799 or $1,499 a month. Each person past 40 then adds $35. You move up a size only after two months in a row above it. We tell you first, and your first month there costs the old price. Shrink and you move down on your next bill. The first 14 days are free with no card. We move your customers, jobs and prices in at no charge. HandledIQ keeps nothing from your card or bank payments: you pay only Stripe's own fee. Pay for a year and get two months free. Still paying for your old software? Send us each month's paid bill. We take it off your HandledIQ bill for up to six months, up to the whole bill. No contract and no fee to cancel. Your ad money stays yours.

#### Does HandledIQ run payroll?

HandledIQ prepares each pay run from the hours and jobs your team worked: overtime, job pay, commissions and tips. Techs sign their own timesheets on their phones. You approve the run, and it goes to Gusto, ADP, QuickBooks Payroll or Paychex in their own import file.

#### Will Hoss text my customers on his own?

Only routine texts you've given a standing OK, like reminders and visit records. They never go out at night. Your office gets a few minutes to stop one. Anything about money waits for a person.

#### Can I bring my records from Jobber, ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro?

Yes. Customers, jobs, invoices and your price book come over from Jobber, ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, FieldEdge, Service Fusion, Workiz, QuickBooks, Square, your phone's contacts or a spreadsheet. Photos of a paper invoice book work too. Your first customers show in seconds, and any import can be undone.

#### Does it answer my phone?

Your people answer, with the caller's home, past visits, your price and the soonest open time already on screen. When nobody can pick up, after hours or on a fourth call at once, your shop's assistant answers and says it's the assistant. It gives your real price and times and books only after the caller presses 1. It runs on your shop's own HandledIQ line.

#### Can ChatGPT or Claude book my shop?

Yes, once you switch it on. A homeowner's AI assistant gets your book price and holds a real open time for 10 minutes. Your shop texts the homeowner, and only their tap books the visit. It works with ChatGPT, Claude or any assistant the homeowner connects to HandledIQ.

#### Do I still need HandledIQ if I use an AI assistant?

Yes. An assistant reads and drafts. HandledIQ is where the work happens: the schedule, texts, techs' phones, invoices and card payments. So it sees a late invoice or an unanswered customer the minute it happens, and checks everything again every 10 minutes. Connect your ChatGPT or Claude and it reads the same list.

#### Do I get a website?

Yes. HandledIQ builds it from the records it already keeps. It lives at yourshop.handlediq.com with HTTPS. You look it over and publish it. A booking from it lands in your schedule.

#### Will my website make anything up?

No. HandledIQ leaves off any part with nothing real behind it. Your on-time record shows once ten visits back it. A review from a visit shows only when the homeowner said yes.

#### Do my techs need training?

They get their day on their phone and close a visit by saying what happened. Notes and photos save offline and send when signal returns.

#### Who owns the data?

You do. Export every record and original photo any time. Homeowners and techs can download their own Passports.
