Built, shipped, still running.

An inspection system a fire protection company runs its day on, two apps in the App Store, and the tool that runs this studio. All of it built in house.

Fire protection

Aimpoint Inspector

Inspectors arrive with the day already planned, fill the NFPA 25 form on the phone in front of the riser, and leave with the deficiencies written up. The office bills the repair and files the report with the fire marshal from the same record.

Irrigation

Irrigation Hero

Parts on the trucks, the day's jobs and the customer record, all held in one place, so the office can see a job the truck is not carrying the parts for.

Inventory · dispatch · CRM

Stock levels per truck against their par levels
The dispatch board, with a job flagged against the parts its truck is carrying

01

Nothing runs out quietly

Every truck carries a par level, and the moment one drops below it the office sees a shortfall rather than a number to work out. The dispatch board knows the same thing: a six-zone install needs fourteen spray bodies, Truck 12 has two, and it says so before the crew leaves. That is the whole reason both halves live in one system.

A part record with photograph, part number, cost and stock across warehouse and trucks
A customer site record with zone count, controller model and backflow test history

02

Enough to act on, in one tap

A part you can actually recognize: photograph, number, what it costs, and where the stock sits across the warehouse and every truck, pulled to a truck in one tap. The customer record carries what is in the ground, the zone count, the controller, when the backflow was last tested, and what the last crew found.

Trucking

HT Trucking

A small fleet dispatches to its drivers from the office, and the driver works the whole day out of the phone: the inspection before the wheels turn, the route and the miles, and the signature at the dock.

Dispatch · DVIR · proof of delivery

01 Before the wheels turn

02 On the road

The day's route, the stops and the odometer

03 At the dock

Pieces, seal, exceptions and a signature

Fitness coaching

BodiQuest

Coaches set the program, clients log a guided check-in one measurement at a time, and both sides watch the same graph. The encouragement comes from a person, not a notification.

Stand-up comedy

My Big Joke Book

Screenwriting

My Big Script Book

Writers keep screenplays, stage plays and sketches in one place, formatted to the measurements the trade expects. The script is the source: mark a line as a scene and it turns up in the shooting list, with its locations, shots and cast.

Environmental compliance

Stormline

Inspections · corrective actions · audit trail

Tennessee requires certified stormwater inspections on a construction site twice a week, and again within 24 hours of any half inch of rain. Miss one and the fine lands on the builder.

THE CLOCK
Rainfall crosses the trigger and the day reorders itself. Three sites that had a week now have until tonight.
THE EVIDENCE
A failure is photographed where it is found, with the time and the coordinates on it, because a description written back at the truck is not evidence.
THE AUDIT
Every inspection and every repair kept for three years, which is the question an agency actually turns up and asks.
The day after a rain event, with three sites now due within 24 hours

A BMP inspection with two failures written up and photographed on the spot
