Capital Region contractors and service businesses

Get found.Get reviewed.Get hired.

Most local contractors lose work to a competitor with a better online presence, not better work. We fix the presence — reviews, Google, search, and the AI answers people now trust — so the phone rings for the right reasons.

Illustrative. Three local results is all most searches show — being fourth is the same as being invisible.

The problem

Three things quietly cost you jobs

You are invisible in the map pack

Three businesses show up when someone searches for your trade nearby. If you are not one of them, the job goes to whoever is.

Your reviews trickle in

Happy customers rarely leave a review unprompted. Unhappy ones always do. Left alone, the average drifts down.

AI answers are the new front page

People ask ChatGPT and Google AI for a recommendation. Those answers are built from what is written about you online, and most contractors have never checked what they say.

What we do

The whole online side, handled

You run the crew. We run everything between someone searching for your trade and that person calling you.

Review generation

All plans
Automated review requests by text and email after every job, a landing page that makes leaving one easy, and private feedback routed straight to you so problems get fixed before they get posted.

Google Business Profile management

All plans
Posts, photos, questions answered, and drafted replies to every review — you approve, we publish. A neglected profile is the most common reason a good contractor ranks below a mediocre one.

SEO audit and repair

Growth
We score your site across ten categories, show you exactly what is costing you rank, and then fix it — titles, schema, page speed, the citations that list your business wrong.

AI search visibility

Premium
We track whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews recommend you for the searches that matter, and work on the sources that shape those answers.

Competitor monitoring

Premium
Who is beating you, where, and what changed this month. No guessing about why the phone got quieter.

AI chat on your site

Add-on
Answers service questions at 9pm and captures the lead instead of losing it. Kept on a short leash — it never quotes prices or books work you did not approve.

How it works

Three steps, and the first one is free

01

We audit what you have

Your site, your Google profile, your reviews, your listings, and what AI assistants currently say about you. You get a plain-English report with a score and a fix list. No charge, no obligation.

02

We fix and build

We repair what is broken, turn on review requests, and take over your Google profile. Most of it happens in the first two weeks without any work from you.

03

You approve, we publish

Nothing AI-written reaches a customer without your say-so. Review replies, posts and monthly recaps come to you as drafts first. That rule does not change as you scale.

Why us

Built for the smaller shop

Plenty of agencies will take a contractor's money and hand back a monthly PDF. We built our own tools instead of reselling someone else's, which means we can work on the things that actually move a local business rather than the things that are easy to report on.

The point is to let a two-truck operation compete with the outfit that has a marketing department.

  • Month to month. No annual lock-in required.
  • Every service can be switched off independently — you are never paying for something you are not using.
  • Nothing AI-generated reaches a customer without your approval.
  • We ask every customer for a review, not just the ones we think will say something nice. That is both the rule and the right way to do it.
  • Based in Schenectady. We know the market you are selling into.
