Clockwork · by Beat the Clock
The desk that never leaves the office.
Clockwork is the operating system for a trades business: lead in, qualified, answered, quoted, scheduled, confirmed, invoiced, reviewed, and then mined again next season. Tock does the work. You approve it.

Beat the clock
Race it.
Three rounds, each a bit more like an actual Tuesday. You will not win, and the reason you will not win is the entire product.
Round 1 of 3 · At the desk
How fast are you, really?
A call is going to come in. Hit Answer as fast as you can. Three rounds, and each one is a bit more like an actual Tuesday.
Tock’s work, in the order your day happens.
- 01
The call you missed
A call rings out while you are under a sink. Clockwork sees the missed call and texts them back in seconds, before they scroll down to the next name in the search results.
- 02
The question you would have asked
Tock reads what they wrote, marks it hot, warm or cold, and writes a brief. From the symptoms alone he will often name the likely parts and the hours, so you know what is coming before you pick up.
- 03
The reply you did not have time to write
They text back. Tock reads the thread and drafts your answer in your voice. You read it, change anything you want, and send it with one tap.
- 04
The quote you meant to send
Set your rate card once. From then on a lead becomes a priced quote in one tap, sent as a link they can accept from their phone. Every price is computed from your card, never guessed by a model.
- 05
The follow-up you forgot
Quotes get chased on a schedule until the customer answers or the job closes. The moment they reply, the chasing stops. Nobody gets texted after they have already said yes.
- 06
The appointment nobody confirmed
When a job gets a date, the customer gets a confirmation. The day before, a reminder. Your most expensive failure is a truck arriving at an empty house, and this is the cheapest way to stop it.
- 07
The invoice sitting in your glovebox
A won job drafts its own invoice. Send it as a pay-by-text link, the customer pays on a hosted page, and it flips to paid on its own. Your revenue number becomes money actually collected.
- 08
The review you never asked for
Every job you mark won fires a review request automatically. Reviews are the biggest local-lead driver there is, and asking for them is the task that always loses to the next call.
- 09
The customers you already have
Tock reads your closed book for equipment coming up on its age, seasonal timing and customers who have gone quiet, ranks them by what they are likely worth, and drafts a win-back for each one.
- 10
Tomorrow, planned while you slept
Overnight Tock reads tomorrow’s board and writes a plan: move this job, fill the 2pm gap, the storm at 9 means the roof work goes to the afternoon. In the morning you approve, edit or reject each move.
Tock drafts. You send. After you have approved enough of his drafts without editing them, you can promote him to send that type himself. The promotion is a deliberate two-step switch, and taking it back is one tap.
