The math they don't tell you
Most contractors miss 0% of inbound calls. That's roughly $0 /day in lost work — every truck, every shop, every week.
Hausstack assumes you're going to miss calls — and answers them for you, books the work, sends the confirmation, gets you paid faster. The infrastructure for the work you'd do if you had time.

The forking promise
One engine.
Two real shops.
Most CRMs are a generic dashboard everyone has to bend around. Hausstack forks per shop — different brand, different feature set, different IA, same underlying system. Built to fit, not to configure.

The whole job · start to finish
From ringing phone to paid invoice.
Most CRMs cover one slice. Hausstack is the whole loop, designed so the lead the AI booked at 7am is the same record the tech opens at noon and the owner reviews at 6pm. No stitching, no double-entry, no exports.
Chapter 01
The phone rings.
You're on a ladder. The shop is empty. AI receptionist picks up in two seconds, recognizes the caller, qualifies the work, books it into the dispatch board, and texts the customer a confirmation. You see the booked job on your phone before you climb down.

Voltline Electric — this is Riley. How can I help?
Hi, I had y'all do a service call back in March — I'm thinking about upgrading my panel.
Hey Maria — looks like we did the panel diagnostic in March. Mike's free Wednesday at 11am. Want me to put you on his board?

Chapter 02
The truck rolls out.
Tech opens the job on their phone — customer history, gate code, dog warning, parts loaded, before-photos checklist. Tap-to-call, tap-to-navigate, tap-to-clock-in. No paper. No three-app dance. One screen for the whole visit.

Agents that earn their keep
Receipts,
not promises.
Every action every agent takes lands in your AI Work Log — what fired, who it touched, what it said, what came back. Anything that involves money or customer-facing words goes to your approval queue first. You're never surprised.
Below — a real morning's slice from the Voltline pilot.
Hard rules
What agents will never do without your approval.
- Send any message that contains a dollar amount.
- Change invoice status (mark paid / void).
- Cancel a job, plan, or appointment.
- Delete any record.
- Issue a final code or legal determination.
- Charge a customer's payment method.
- Reply to a complaint or warranty claim.
- Send below your margin floor.
What's different about Hausstack
Most CRMs were built for software companies.
We built ours for shops with trucks.
Hausstack
Everywhere else
Forks per shop
Configures per shop
Same engine, different features, different IA, different brand. Voltline gets receptionist + memberships. Ironclad gets RFIs + milestone billing. Both look completely different. Generic CRMs make you bend your shop around their dashboard.
Hausstack
Everywhere else
Mobile is the field
Mobile is the desktop, smaller
Tap-to-call. Tap-to-navigate. One-handed. Required-photos checklist per assembly. Time clock that knows the job. The whole tech experience is built for someone holding the phone in one hand and a meter in the other.
Hausstack
Everywhere else
Agents that work with receipts
AI as a feature line
Every action lands in the AI Work Log with the data it saw, the message it drafted, who approved it, what came back. Not chatbots. Workers. With audit trails. With governance gates. With the trust ramp built into the product.
Hausstack
Everywhere else
Real margin, not just revenue
Today's collected, end of story
Job costing variance vs quote — quoted 9.5 hours, actual 13.2; quoted $890 in materials, actual $1,240. Per tech, per source, per customer. Owners stop the meeting to look at this view. Most CRMs in this space don't even build it.
Hausstack
Everywhere else
Pricebook that drives everything
Loose line items
200A panel upgrade picks itself — labor by role, parts list, permit flag, required photos, margin floor, common upsells. Photo-quote AI prefers assemblies. Required-photos checklist on the job page comes from the assembly. Cascades into every feature.

Founder · Hausstack · Los Angeles
I started Hausstack because every contractor I talked to was running their business out of fifteen disconnected apps — call answering here, scheduling there, invoicing somewhere else, and a stack of paper receipts in the truck.
Hausstack is the one system that fits your shop instead of forcing your shop to fit the software. We fork it per customer. Different brand. Different features. Different IA. Same engine.
You're not opening a ticket. You're emailing the person who built this. I read everything that comes through.
Ready when you are
