Business texting for contractors, without your personal cell
TradeFlare handles business texting for contractors from your verified business number. Customers get booking confirmations, appointment reminders, on-my-way texts with a live map, quote follow-ups, invoice reminders and after-job Google review requests, and their replies come back into TradeFlare instead of your personal phone.
Or download the app and start the 14-day trial on Pro or Crew.
What TradeFlare fixes
Your personal number everywhere
Text from your business number so replies go to the business.
Where's my tech? calls
Customers get an automatic reply with the ETA when they ask.
Forgotten review asks
Review requests go out after every job.
Everything in one phone app
Automatic customer texts
From your verified business number: booking confirmations, appointment reminders, on-my-way texts with a live map, a where's-my-tech auto-reply, quote follow-ups, invoice reminders, maintenance reminders and after-job Google review requests. STOP replies are honored automatically.
Scheduling and dispatch
The AI can book callers into open slots using your business hours, job types and lengths, and who's available, and you can undo any booking in one tap. Create jobs, assign techs, and see who's working what today and this week on the dispatch board.
Card payments on the invoice
Tap Collect payment and text a secure Stripe pay link or show a QR code; the customer pays by card or bank transfer on their own phone and the invoice flips to Paid. Payments run on your own Stripe account. TradeFlare adds no fee of its own (Stripe's standard fees apply). There's no card reader or Tap to Pay yet.
AI front desk, 24/7
The AI front desk answers your business line day and night, tells callers they're talking to an AI assistant, takes their name, number, address and what's going on, and saves the call as a lead with a summary, transcript and recording. Emergencies get flagged with a loud alarm on the on-call phone that rings through Do Not Disturb.
