Your day's jobs on one board. Drag a card between columns, assign a tech, and watch the day fill in.

Dispatch board

About the dispatch board

The dispatch board is a free scheduling tool for home-service businesses: HVAC, lawn care, plumbing, electrical, cleaning, and remodeling. Add a job with the customer, address, service, and time window, assign it to a technician, and move it across New, Scheduled, In progress, and Done as the day unfolds.

Everything you enter is saved in this browser, on this device. Nothing is uploaded and there's no account. It's the honest, single-user version of the dispatch systems we build for companies running several crews, where the same board syncs to every phone and texts the customer when the truck is on the way.

How to use it
  • Add a job with the customer, address, service, and time window
  • Assign a technician and drag the card to Scheduled
  • Move jobs to In progress and Done as the day runs
  • Load sample data to see a full day, or export your board as a file

Questions people ask

Is the dispatch board free to use?

Yes. It's free, there's no account, and nothing you type leaves your browser. It's here so you can feel what a scheduling system built around your crews would be like before you talk to us.

Can my technicians see the board on their phones?

Not this version. It lives in one browser on one device, which is the point of a free demo. The full build syncs the same board to every tech's phone, with the day's route, customer notes, and photos, and it works offline in the field.

What does the full dispatch system add?

Customer self-booking, automatic assignment by skill and availability, SMS reminders and on-the-way texts, a crew app with the route, payments on site, and QuickBooks sync. Typically $22–35K and 10 to 14 weeks, with a fixed price after discovery.
