Drop in what you have
Staff lists, rate cards and customer spreadsheets. CREW25 AI reads them into your team, customers and price book, and you check everything before it is created.
Looking at Housecall Pro?
Meet CREW25.
The AI platform for Australian trades running crews on projects and service calls, on one plan.
14-day free trial, no credit card required.
AI that runs your office, not another software
Ask in plain words, typed or spoken. It works from your own jobs, schedule, hours and price book, and checks with you before it changes anything.
Your admin, done by 9:30
Ask for today’s jobs, what’s overdue, a quote or the week’s hours. Anything important, it checks with you first.
Quotes from a sentence
Say the job on site and CREW25 AI drafts the quote from your own price book, ready for you to check and send.
Knows the margin mid-job
Labour is costed as hours are approved, so a job running over shows while there’s still time for a variation.
Paid without the chasing
Reminders go out until the invoice is paid, and payments come back from Xero and card payments by themselves.
