Tag the equipment during the visit, let the customer scan it when something changes, and receive the next request with the unit already identified — no app, login, or search required.

A concrete rollout your team can follow.

Start with the company setup, put the included tags in technicians’ hands, and build the homeowner path one serviced unit at a time.

Step 1

Set up the company workspace

We coordinate the company account, owner access, and the service details customers should see.

Step 2

Receive the starter tag kit

Start with 25 serialized QR service tags and three months of complimentary software access. The remaining 75 starter tags are included when paid service starts.

Step 3

Invite the service team

Owners and admins add technicians and office staff to the private workspace with the right access.

Step 4

Place and link each tag

A signed-in technician scans with the phone camera and links the tag to the customer, site, and exact unit.

Step 5

Receive equipment-specific requests

The homeowner scans later and the team sees the issue with the claimed customer, site, and equipment attached.

Step 6

Schedule the next touchpoint

The company sets default maintenance reminders and can adjust the schedule for each tagged unit.
