Stop quoting at 9pm and chasing invoices on Sundays.
Electricians, plumbers, builders and the like run on quoting, scheduling and getting paid. Buildloop builds AI tools that handle the admin so you can stay on the tools.
A quick look at what it does
This is the kind of tool we'd build for your trades business — quoting, chasing invoices and answering questions, running in the background.
Buildloop
Software that runs the boring parts of your trades business.
Custom AI software for New Zealand small business.
The loops worth closing first
Each of these is a custom tool with AI woven through it — built around how you actually work.
Auto-quoting from a photo + notes
Draft accurate, branded quotes in minutes, not evenings — then they're sent and tracked for you.
Smart invoice chasing
Polite reminders escalate automatically — email, then SMS — until you're paid, often about two weeks faster.
Job scheduling + client reminders
Bookings synced to your calendar with day-before texts — far fewer no-shows and double-bookings.
Smart inbox
Every enquiry from email, web and text sorted by urgency, with a reply drafted in your voice.
Missed-call text-back
An instant 'sorry we missed you' text so a missed call never becomes a lost job.
Automatic review requests
Asks happy customers for a Google review after each completed job, and drafts your replies.
Software that fits your trade, not the other way round
- Built around your real workflow, not a generic template
- Fixed price, agreed up front in the proposal
- Shipped in weeks, improved on an ongoing loop
- Your team trained to actually use it
Will it work with Xero and my job-management app?
Where those tools offer an integration, yes — we connect to Xero, Gmail, your calendar and more, and work alongside what you already use rather than replacing it.
I'm not techy. Is that a problem?
Not at all. You bring the trade knowledge; we build it, set it up, and explain it in plain English. Most owners are up and running without touching any settings.
What if the AI gets a quote or reply wrong?
Nothing goes out the door on its own. Quotes, replies and reminders are drafted for you to glance over and approve — you stay in control of anything a customer sees.
How long until it's actually running?
Most first tools are live in a few weeks, not months. We start with the one loop that saves you the most time, then add more once it's earning its keep.
Is my data safe, and do I own it?
Your data stays yours, encrypted and isolated to your business. You can export it any time, and nothing is shared with other tradies or sold on.
