Every trades business has what they call "glue" employees.
These are people just managing software. Copy-pasting between systems. Clicking through janky UIs. Acting as the human layer on top of tools the business already owns, just to get basic outcomes.
Take a collision repair shop. They'll use something like CCCOne as their system of record.
And then they'll have:
One person generating estimates inside it. One person coordinating with vendors to procure parts. One person picking up calls, responding to leads across Yelp, Google, their website, and Podium, and chasing follow-ups. A finance team manually reconciling invoices in QuickBooks.
What does need to be there - the technicians, the estimators in the field, the crew actually doing the work - and they’re being slowed down because the office can't keep up. Leads go unanswered. Estimates take days. Jobs get lost.
Ressl deploys AI agents that sit on top of your existing software - the tools you already use - and handle the glue work autonomously.
1. Lead response & scheduling: Their agents respond to inbound leads across every channel (calls, texts, Yelp, Google, website) instantly, 24/7, and book the job.
2. Estimating & bidding: Agents pull the relevant job data and generate estimates inside your existing system - dramatically cutting the time from inquiry to quote.
3. Procurement: Agents handle vendor communications to source and coordinate parts, so your team isn't playing phone tag with suppliers.
4. Admin & invoicing: Routine back-office tasks - follow-ups, invoice management, job status updates - handled automatically in the background.
The business owner gets the outcome. The software does the work.
Legacy software with no APIs, fragmented communication, and workflows requiring human judgment made automation impossible. AI agents (especially with OpenClaw-like architecture) that can read a UI, understand context, and operate across tools change that entirely. The technology finally matches the problem.
They would love to talk to:
Trades & home services business owners — if you're managing HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, collision repair, roofing, or any field ops business and your office feels like it's always behind, that's exactly who they are building for.
PE firms and roll-up operators — if you're acquiring and scaling home services businesses and want to increase margins across your portfolio without adding headcount, you should chat to the team.
