How We Calculate This
We don’t pull numbers out of thin air. Here are the assumptions behind the calculator, based on industry benchmarks and early customer data.
Scheduling: Up to 70% Reduction
Visual calendars, conflict detection, and smart suggestions replace phone-tag and spreadsheets for most scheduling work.
Dispatch: Up to 60% Reduction
Auto-assignment matches the right tech in seconds based on skills, proximity, and workload. Dispatchers handle exceptions, not every job.
Invoicing: Up to 80% Reduction
Invoices are ready to generate from completed jobs. Parts, labor, and photos are already captured — just review and send.
Missed Jobs: Up to 60% Recovery
Automated reminders, real-time updates, and better scheduling mean fewer cancellations. We estimate you could recover up to 60% of lost jobs.
Extra Capacity
Saved hours translate to more jobs your team can complete each week. We calculate that based on your current throughput rate.
Based on Industry Benchmarks
These estimates are based on average improvements reported across field service companies using scheduling and dispatch automation tools, compared to paper-based or manual processes.
Dispatcher Automation
We estimate 50% of a dispatcher’s daily workload can be automated through intelligent assignment, reducing manual dispatching overhead.
Intelligent Dispatch
Our dispatch engine matches the right tech to every job — skills, availability, and proximity all factor in. Teams typically see 20–30% shorter drive distances, which adds up to real fuel savings.
SLA Compliance
Auto-assignment and disruption recovery prevent approximately 80% of SLA violations by ensuring every task is assigned to the best available technician immediately.
