TradesOS

The operating system for home service businesses.

Plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and general contracting work the same way: bid, dispatch, complete, get paid. TradesOS is the structured layer underneath the field, the office, and the customer experience — built for owner-operators, not enterprise procurement.

A platform variant of Life Design Technologies.

The operating loop

Bid. Dispatch. Complete. Get paid.

Every home service business runs the same operating loop — even when the trades themselves differ. TradesOS is shaped to that loop, with the rhythm and vocabulary of how trades actually run the work.

  1. 01

    Bid

    Estimates and quotes that match how the work actually gets priced — not generic line-item templates pretending to be a system.

  2. 02

    Dispatch

    Crew assignment, routing, and field coordination. The right tech in the right place with the right context, on time.

  3. 03

    Complete

    Job execution coordinated across the field, the office, and the customer. Voice-first updates from the field; structured records back at the office.

  4. 04

    Get paid

    Invoicing and follow-up tied to the actual work delivered. The cash cycle stays clean; receivables don’t become a second job.

Who it’s for

Owner-operators, not enterprise procurement.

TradesOS is built for the people running the work — owners in the field, dispatchers running the day, office staff holding the operation together. It’s designed for small and mid-size practices that need real coordination without the weight of a generic enterprise system.

  • Plumbing
  • HVAC
  • Electrical
  • General contracting

One unified platform across the trade — not separate apps per role. The dispatcher view, the technician view, and the back-office view all run on the same system.

Run the operation. Not the spreadsheet for the operation.

TradesOS is the operating layer underneath the work — built to hold the field, the office, and the customer in one coordinated rhythm.
