Lehvel · Mission 01

I build AI systems that win more jobs.For owner-run trade businesses.

I learn how work comes in today, then set up AI that answers every lead, speeds up each estimate and chases the follow-up. And I keep it running.

Made for shops where one job is worth thousands: windows and doors, roofing, HVAC, remodeling, building supply.

Who we build for

What we see in businesses like yours.

Four kinds of company share the same problems: jobs that start with a call, facts spread across systems, and owners who are still the system of record.

Trades & field services
Plumbing · HVAC · Electrical · Roofing · Garage doors · Tree service · Landscape · Painting
The owner is the estimator, the dispatcher and the person who answers the phone. The website says one thing about hours and services; Google and AI answers repeat another.
3 of 4 businesses in our September study contradicted themselves on their own website.
Building products & distribution
Windows & doors · Building supply
Price lists and spec sheets live in PDFs, inboxes and one person's head. Quotes wait on whoever knows the part numbers.
A 22-page invoice that took about 90 minutes now takes about 5.
Commercial & specialized services
Fleet repair · Towing & recovery · Specialty services
Fewer, larger jobs, each won on the first call, a fast estimate and the next update. One person usually carries all three.
In the same study, AI answers named the business in 13 of 13 questions asked by name, and 6 of 12 asked for the best provider.
Multi-location & local operators
Multi-location operators · Dealers & dealer networks
Several locations telling one story, and the name, address and phone drifting between them.
4 of 4 businesses in the same study had a name, address or phone conflict across site, Google and directories.

Mission plan

The master plan.

Four steps. Step one never changes.

Step 01Sit with the owner and follow one job from first call to signed contract.
Step 02Find where jobs slip away: missed calls, slow quotes, no follow-up, a thin Google listing.
Step 03Wire AI into the tools your crew already uses to close each gap.
Step 04Watch the numbers every week and keep what works.

Then do it for the next owner, and the one after that.

First principle: the best data entry is the kind nobody does.

Start at step one

How we use AI

AI does the grind.A person makes the call.

Nothing reaches a customer without a person's approval. We check every result against the data your staff already trust, and one named person owns each system.

AI

Reads supplier sheets, invoices and quotes
Retypes them into the systems you run
Compares every copy of a fact
Drafts the fix and the listing

A person

Walks the floor and asks why
Decides what is true
Approves each change
Signs off what ships

ConfirmedThe fact, its source, who confirmed it and when.
ApprovedConnected systems change only after a person says yes.
HeldA fix counts only when a separate check shows it held.
