Confirm & Route

One-tap transition workflow: closeout checklist, travel directions, next job details
Real-time fill-in dispatch: notify available technicians of nearby cancellation gaps

Target Users: HVAC service companies with 5-50 technicians, especially those in dense residential or commercial service areas

Revenue Model: SaaS subscription per technician per month ($50-100/tech/mo)
