For service trade businesses

Field service software you run on a phone, a Sheet, and a smart assistant.

OpsLight turns voicemails, texts, and contact-form submissions into structured projects, daily Game Plans, and finished documents — without an app to install, a portal to log into, or a $600/month subscription nobody on the crew will actually use.

The pattern we kept seeing

Field-driven businesses don't run on software. They run on phones and trucks.

Enterprise project-management tools assume everyone is at a desk. Your crew is on a scaffold. So the system that's supposed to organize the work either gets ignored or gets reduced to one frantic Friday catch-up session.

01

Your guys won't use another app

Every contractor in your network has a graveyard of "the system we tried for three weeks." If it isn't text-and-phone-call native, it doesn't survive contact with the job site. Why we built without a crew app →

02

You can't justify a $600/month subscription

Procore, MaintainX, BuilderTrend — they're built for general contractors with 50 active projects and an ops department. You have 5 active projects and you ARE the ops department. Month-to-month, cancel anytime →

03

Your reports still live in your head

You know the status of every active project. The problem is you're the only one who does. Property managers ask, "is your crew on site yet?" — and you call Tony to find out.

The OpsLight way

One pipeline. Five intake channels. A Sheet you already understand.

Calls come in through your existing phone number. Texts come in through SMS. Emails forward in. Crew check-ins are texts. Website forms post in. Claude parses every one of them into structured fields and writes them to a Google Sheet you own.

Records & reports

System of record

Google Sheet — append-only, audit-friendly, owned by you forever.

Daily Game Plan

Auto-drafted every morning. Active projects, crew assignments, open items, week-ahead view.

Documents

SOWs, change orders, lien waivers, status emails — auto-drafted from project data, brand-styled.

What's included

Four modules. One platform. Configured for your trade.

Intake

Every voicemail, text, email, and form submission lands in your Sheet — structured, classified by urgency, and routed for callback. Nothing slips.

Crew Tracker

Your guys text "IN [project]" when they arrive and "OUT [project] [notes]" when they leave. Sheet logs timestamps automatically. No app. No login. No new behavior to learn.

Documents

SOWs, change orders, lien waivers, photo releases, project closeout packets — all auto-generated from your project Sheet, styled in your brand, ready to send.

Reports

Daily Game Plan in your inbox at 7am. Weekly digest. Monthly property-manager status emails. Quarterly capex review. Every report shows up where it's supposed to, without you writing it.

The daily report

Every morning at 7am. The whole operation on one page.

The Game Plan is the morning briefing for your operation — auto-drafted from every signal that came in the day before. Print it. Forward it. Run your morning meeting off it.
