Field service software that answers the phone, too

Founding Crew: $49.99/mo locked for 12 months, first 10 licensed crews. Or download the app and start the 14-day trial on Pro or Crew.
Everything a small crew runs on, in one app
AI front desk
Answers every call 24/7, takes the details, books open slots and flags emergencies with a loud alarm to the on-call phone.
Lead inbox
Your own lead email address. Forward leads from Angi, Thumbtack, Google, Facebook, Yelp, Nextdoor and others, and they land in one inbox, tagged with where they came from.
Jobs, scheduling and dispatch
Create jobs, set the time, assign the right tech, and see who's working what on the dispatch board, today and this week.
Crew walkie-talkie and chat
Push-to-talk like a radio, job photos in the same channel, rooms, direct messages, and who's available right now.
Automatic customer texts
Booking confirmations, reminders, on-my-way texts with a live map, “where's my tech?” replies, quote and invoice follow-ups and Google review requests.
Quotes and invoices
Price book, quotes the customer signs on their phone, change orders, and invoices you send in a tap.
Get paid on the spot
Card or bank transfer through your own Stripe account, by pay link or QR code. TradeFlare adds no fee; Stripe's fees apply.
Run it by voice
Set up your company by voice in about 10 minutes, then create jobs, assign techs and text customers by voice from the truck.
Who it's for, honestly
Built for
Owner-run plumbing, HVAC and electrical crews of 1-10 people where the owner still answers the phone. It also fits handyman, roofing and other service crews that book work by phone.
Not built for
Big operations with 50+ techs and a dispatch office, shops that need a desktop app or QuickBooks/Xero sync today, and teams that need Spanish. TradeFlare doesn't offer those yet.

Questions owners ask
Is TradeFlare field service software or an answering service?
Both, in one app. The AI front desk answers and books calls, and the same app runs jobs, scheduling, dispatch, crew chat and walkie-talkie, customer texts, quotes, invoices and payments.
Does it work on a computer?
TradeFlare runs on iPhone and Android. There's no desktop web app today.
How long does setup take?
About 10 minutes by voice: your trade, hours, job types, crew and who's on call. It reads each answer back and saves only when you say yes. You can type instead.
What does it cost?
Pro is $99.99/mo for up to 5 seats, Crew is $249.99/mo with no seat cap, and Founding Crew is $49.99/mo locked for 12 months for the first 10 licensed crews. AI phone minutes are included in every plan.
