Equipment history and reminder tool for service companies
HVAC and inspection owners need simple per-unit service history with reminders.
Why it can work
- Technicians lack records of equipment age and warranties.
- Customers miss servicing and safety tests without reminders.
- Existing options are either too complex or missing features.
Watch out
- Owners may prefer their current scheduling software.
- Buyers may see little value beyond existing paper records.
