The old auto-reply
Cold and unhelpful. Sarah realises you are too busy, logs back onto Google, and rings the next trade.

The invisible office dispatch engine
Shield builds a private timeline from your estimates and enquiries, so the moment the phone rings it already knows the caller, and replies the right way.
Every time you copy an estimate to Shield, or a web enquiry lands, your back-office assistant quietly notes it and builds a private, running timeline.
So when the phone rings, it already knows the caller. If you have an open quote sitting with them, it does not send a generic reply, it follows up on that exact estimate by name.
Everyone else gets a polished, professional reply from your dedicated office notification line. Either way, the customer feels looked after.
Sarah fills out your website form on Monday. You email her a quote on Tuesday and copy Shield in. Today she rings your mobile while you are running a machine, and the call is missed.

The office notification
Staggering professionalism. Sarah feels looked after by your office, stops searching for other quotes, and replies with her status.
Speed to lead
The instant a call or web enquiry lands, Shield fires back a context-matched reply in seconds, so the lead never has time to go cold.
Too busy to answer? Shield checks your timeline for an open quote and fires back a polished text straight away.

The moment a new enquiry lands, from your website, a Facebook lead or a referral, Shield reads it, creates a client record, and sends an instant welcome text, before they look elsewhere.

A No Caller ID call leaves no number to text or call back, so most tradies let it ring out and most systems lose that lead for good. Shield answers in your office voice, takes a voicemail, and turns it into a clean hot-lead ticket on your phone: who called, the best callback number, and what they need.

The Shadow CRM
Built quietly from your daily emails and invoices, the Shadow CRM chases dead quotes, wins reviews and manufactures repeat work. The bigger marketing pushes wait for your one-tap approval, so you are always in control.
Quotes get forgotten when you are flat out. Hit 30 days with no invoice and Shield fires a friendly text to clear the books, routinely reviving dead money.

The second a final invoice is closed out, Shield texts a direct Google review link to the happy client, right when they are happiest.
At the same moment, it pings your phone to remind you to snap a photo of the finished job and post it, lifting your ranking in local Google Maps.

Stop leaving repeat revenue on the table. About a year after a job is done, Shield lines up a friendly check-in and asks for your nod before it sends, high-margin repeat work out of thin air.

Slash non-billable drive time. Quote a new job in a suburb and Shield finds past clients in that same area, lining up a neighbourly offer while a truck is nearby. One SEND and they all go out, packing your week with local jobs.

Not every job is a "yes" today. When a customer says "contact me next spring", Shield confirms, parks the lead, and quietly reminds you when their time comes around.

FAQ
Anything else, just text us.
No. There's nothing to install, no app to learn, and no accounting software to plug in. You won't be stuck on the phone to a help desk or have to get IT involved — Shield just works quietly in the background with the tools you already use every day, and we have you up and running in minutes.
Shield operates as your dedicated office notification line. If it texted from your personal mobile, it would interrupt you while you are working or talking to clients. Framing the text as an office notification lifts your professional image, explains the different number perfectly, and collects structured details for you before you call them back.
It is incredibly simple. The moment you get an alert about a non-revenue contact, just reply with the single word MUTE. Shield instantly whitelists that number and drops all future replies to them. No menus required.
Never. Shield only messages your customers during normal business hours, in their local time. Anything it prepares of an evening simply waits and goes out the next morning.
The moment Shield does a job for you, whether it rescues a call, captures a lead or takes a voicemail, you get a notification straight to your phone. Instant, free, and as many as it takes. You'll always know who called and what they need, without lifting a finger.
They are prepared for you and held until you approve them. Once a day Shield shows you what is ready and you reply SEND to release the lot, or PAUSE to clear it. The instant replies, like missed-call rescues and welcome texts, go out on their own straight away.
Many operators stay within their 100 each month. If you're busy enough to go over, which usually means you're winning more work, you simply add a top-up pack: 100 extra actions for $35, and any you don't use roll over to the next month. You can switch on optional auto top-up so it happens seamlessly, or leave it off and we'll just remind you. Either way your service is never cut off, your lead is never dropped, and there are no surprise platform fee spikes.
None. It is a simple, rolling subscription of $89 a month. If your workflow changes or you want to pause tracking, you can do it instantly by texting PAUSE.
