Great sales call. Different story once you signed.
If you've been burned before, it usually went one of these three ways. We built the opposite into the contract.
They locked you in
Smooth demo, then a contract you couldn't get out of and data they wouldn't hand back.
The Pledge: 30 days' notice, no exit fees, one-click export. Written in the contract, not buried in the FAQ.
Read the Pledge →The price moved after the handshake
Per-lead fees, commission and add-ons that crept up the moment you'd committed.
One flat monthly price. No per-lead fee, no commission, no per-job cut, no paid extras. Texts run on your own Twilio account, billed to you at Twilio’s own rates with no markup from us.

A ticket queue, an offshore script, and nobody who actually knew your business.
You email me, you get me. I'm Cristian, I built it, and I answer every support email myself.
About the founder →Live within a day of your details being complete. Then it runs your day.
Four steps from a missed call at 9pm to a booked, paid, dispatched job. I review every business before go-live myself — the aim is simple: you're live within one working day of your completed details.
Get found & booked
Customers land on your branded booking page and pick a slot themselves. No phone tag, no WhatsApp chaos, no double-bookings.
Take the deposit
They authorise a card deposit at booking, paid straight into your own Stripe account. Card authorisation cuts no-shows before they happen.
Send your team
The job drops onto your workers' phones with the address, customer and notes. You see the whole day live on one dashboard; reminders go out by SMS and email automatically.
Get paid
Customers either pay in full when they book, or a card deposit is held from the start. On completion the invoice is generated and syncs straight to Xero — the paperwork is done before you sit down at night.
One platform. No add-ons, ever.
Everything below is in your monthly price. Nothing bolted on after you sign.
Stop running your business on spreadsheets and goodwill.
A directory rents you access to people who should already be your customers, takes a cut of every lead, and keeps the relationship. Here's the difference, line by line.
Made for UK trade businesses. Yours is probably here.
Plumbers, electricians, gas engineers, HVAC and drainage businesses. Built for UK trade firms of any size up to 90 workers. I review every business personally before it goes live, so the setup actually fits how your trade runs.
All supported trades →For a name you've never heard of, the safety has to be structural.
- Your money never touches us
Customer deposits go straight into your own Stripe account — we never hold your money, and we can't. You pay a flat monthly subscription, fixed in your agreement before you sign — we take nothing from your customers' payments. For a brand-new vendor, that's not a promise — it's how the money physically flows.
- The Pledge is a contract clause
30 days' notice, no exit fees, one-click export, and the customer relationships are always yours. If we break the Pledge you have legal cause to recover your pro-rated fees. It's enforceable, not marketing.
- You're not charged until you're live
Your card is authorised at signup, but your monthly subscription doesn't start until your systems are switched on and you're up and running. No paying for something that isn't working yet.
- EU-hosted, UK GDPR, ICO registered
Your data is EU-hosted (Dublin, AWS eu-west-1) and handled under UK GDPR, covered by the UK adequacy regulations. I'm registered with the ICO, registration C1963975. Plain and verifiable.
- One real person answers you

Be one of the first 10 trade businesses on OptiTech Automation and the price you choose today is locked for life on that stage: no price rise ever reaches a founding member. Your Onboarding Investment is waived too, on the Standard Stage and above. Once the 10 founding places are gone, the founding lock closes. Your card is authorised at signup, but you're not charged a penny of subscription until you're live.
