TradeflareA plumbing scheduling app for shops that can't stop to answer
TradeFlare is a plumbing scheduling app for plumbers who are usually elbow-deep when the phone rings. The AI front desk answers 24/7, flags burst pipes and backups with a loud alarm to the on-call phone, and books routine calls into your open slots. You invoice from the job and collect by card before you leave the driveway.
Or download the app and start the 14-day trial on Pro or Crew.
What TradeFlare fixes
Burst pipes at 2 AM
Emergencies don't go to voicemail. The front desk takes the address and the problem, flags the emergency and alarms the on-call plumber.
Drain calls that fill the day
Set job types and lengths for drains, water heaters and fixtures. The AI books each call into a slot that fits.
Getting paid at the sink
Create the invoice from the job, then text a Stripe pay link or show a QR code. The invoice flips to Paid while you're still there.
Everything in one phone app
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.
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.
Quotes, change orders and invoices
Build quotes from your price book, let the customer sign right on the quote, add change orders when the job changes, and create the invoice from the quote, the job or from scratch. Past-due invoices get a friendly reminder automatically.
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.

Questions contractors ask
Can TradeFlare tell real plumbing emergencies apart?
You set what counts as an emergency and which jobs are worth an after-hours call-out. Calls the front desk flags as emergencies trigger the loud alert.
Do customers know they're talking to an AI?
Yes. The front desk tells callers they're talking to an AI assistant.
Can I take card payments without a card reader?
Yes. Customers pay on their own phone through a pay link or QR code. Tap to Pay isn't available yet.
