Built around your shop — not bolted on

Deck Staining: quoted, booked, deposited, and on the tech's phone.

Not an AI receptionist bolted onto someone else's software. DispatchNode prices from your deck staining catalog and rules, books the job on the board, collects Stripe, and the tech sees it on their phone.

Losing Jobs to Voicemail.

The Old Way

Phone trees, hold music, voicemail. Your customer already called the next guy.

The 2 AM Defect

When you clock out, competitors steal your emergencies.

Leaking Funnel

Every missed call is a missed high-ticket job.

Quote, book, collect, and dispatch — on one call

Quotes from your catalog

Live catalog and rules — not a script that says someone will call you back.

Books it on the board

Collects, then dispatches

Stripe before hang-up. The tech sees the job, the map, and the notes on their phone.
