Automate Your Electrical Business
Troubleshooting calls come in while your electricians are wiring a panel across town. Autopilot answers by text, books the service window, routes the vans, and collects payment before the ladder is back on the rack.
Autopilot, working your route
Run Your Electrical Business on Autopilot
Most electrical contractors lose money on admin work: answering phones mid-job, dispatching electricians, texting arrival windows, chasing estimates, and collecting invoices. Our software automates it all:
- Online booking 24/7 for service calls and estimates
- Missed calls answered by text in seconds
- Smart scheduling & dispatching for every electrician
- Automatic arrival-window and reminder texts
- Estimates and invoices sent, approved, and paid by phone
How an Electrical Day Runs on Autopilot
The same system, told the way the work actually happens: from the first troubleshooting call to the approved panel estimate to the money in your account.
1Book the call
Every ring and click becomes a booked service call
Customers book online 24/7 and pick a troubleshooting visit, an install, or an estimate. When the phone rings, you see who's calling with their full job history, and every call is recorded. Miss one on a ladder? Autopilot texts them back before they call the next electrician.
2Plan the day
Service calls and installs, laid out for the week
The weekly overview shows every troubleshooting call, panel upgrade, and rough-in in one view. Drop new calls into open windows, keep the right electrician on the right work, and everyone knows their day before the vans roll.
3Run the route
Stops ordered so nobody drives in circles
Service calls get ordered by location so your electricians go job to job, not back and forth across town. Crews get SMS alerts the moment anything changes, and homeowners get automatic on-my-way texts so nobody waits by the door.
5Book the next one
Reviews and repeat work, on autopilot
Auto texts ask happy customers for a Google review while the fix is still fresh. SMS, email, voicemail, and postcard blasts bring past customers back for panel upgrades and safety work when the schedule runs thin.

The two kinds of electrical work, and the math of each
Service calls run on speed. Bid work runs on follow-up. Most shops run both and track neither.
Service tickets versus bid work
Electrical splits into two businesses. Service work is dispatch-speed arithmetic: a homeowner with dead outlets or a tripping panel calls two or three shops, and the one that answers and shows up first wins a ticket priced for urgency. Bid work is the opposite tempo: panel upgrades, EV chargers, remodels, where the money is bigger and the enemy is the quote that never gets followed up.
The number that quietly eats service margin is the second truck roll. Going back because the first visit's notes lived in a tech's head costs the drive, the hour, and the schedule slot, all against a ticket that was priced for one trip. Job history attached to the customer is not paperwork, it is margin defense.
The numbers on the electrical side
- Panel upgrade$2,000 to $6,000
Common installed range, varies by market and amperage. One followed-up quote pays for a lot.
- EV charger installA growing pipeline
The homeowner asking today is also the panel-upgrade lead of next quarter.
- A second truck rollThe ticket's margin
Priced for one visit, spent on two. Notes and photos on the job are the fix.
Ranges are rough national figures. The structure is the constant: service rewards speed, projects reward follow-up, and both punish thin notes.
What electrical shops usually replace
Bigger shops arrive from ServiceTitan quotes sized for a dispatch office. Small crews come from Housecall Pro or Jobber, or from an estimating pad and a phone that rings while both hands are in a panel.
The comparison worth running is the whole loop: what it costs to answer the call, send the quote, chase the quote, and collect, without the price climbing per electrician.
