Foremann is an app that gives you a business phone number with a built-in AI assistant. It handles your client texts for you, so you can reply in seconds and stay on the job.
You're running the jobs, the books, and the phone. Something has to slip. For most contractors we've talked to, it's one of these three.
You see the text after the job wraps up. By then she's already hired the other guy who answered in ten minutes.
You quoted the deck rebuild two weeks ago and never heard back. You meant to check in. You didn't. That's a job you didn't get.
Clients have your cell. Your partner is sick of it. There's no off switch between work and home.
Foremann doesn't answer it for you. It writes your reply and holds it until morning.
Pick an area code. We buy the number and set it up. Your clients text it. Your personal phone never rings for work again.
Tell us your trade, your service area, and how you talk. We train your foreman to sound like you, not a chatbot.
Every text that comes in has a reply ready. Tap edit or tap send. You're out the door before the other guy wakes up.
When a client texts, your foreman reads the thread and writes a response that sounds like you sent it. Review, tweak, hit send. Most contractors are out in under ten seconds.
When you sent a message and the client hasn't written back in a couple of days, your foreman writes a check-in for you to send. One missed follow-up is the difference between a paid week and a slow one.
Two sentences that tell you who the client is, what they want, and what to do next. No more scrolling back through the thread to remember.
How long your messages are. The phrases you always use. The ones you'd never use. Your foreman matches you, instead of sounding like a robot.
When a new lead comes in from Angi, Yelp, or Thumbtack, Foremann writes the first message in seconds. The fastest reply almost always wins the job.
Coming nextAnyone who calls hears "please text this number instead." Your phone doesn't ring. Your day doesn't get interrupted. Smart call handling coming next.
Clients only have the business number. Nothing hits your personal phone. Notifications off when you want them off.
We start with the phone because that's where you're losing the most money right now. But a real foreman handles more than texts, and so will yours.
Every inbound text arrives with a ready-to-send reply in your voice. Stale threads get surfaced before they go cold.
Your foreman answers when you can't. Takes a message, writes down what they want, writes the callback or text. You see it when you get off the ladder.
From the same thread that booked the job, your foreman puts the date on the calendar, writes the quote, sends the invoice when the work is done.
"I used to take forever to text people back because I'm always on a job. Now I see the draft and hit send in ten seconds. Closed two jobs I probably would've lost."
"The follow-up thing is what got me. I quoted a deck rebuild and forgot about it. Two weeks later Foremann reminded me to text the guy. He said 'glad you followed up' and booked the job."
"My wife kept asking why clients were texting me at 10pm. Now they have the business number. Problem solved."
One job pays for a month. Lock in your rate. Cancel anytime.
No. You always review before anything sends. The AI writes a reply in your voice. You read it, edit if needed, and hit send. Your clients always hear from you, not a bot.
Edit it before sending. It's a starting point, not an autopilot. The more you fill in your AI profile (how you talk, words you use, words you'd never say), the better the drafts get. Most contractors are sending drafts on day one.
You get a second business number. Foremann doesn't replace your personal number. Clients only have the business line. Your personal phone stays clean.
Yes. iOS and Android both. Download the Foremann app and sign up. Your number is set up inside the app in about five minutes.
You get a push notification at 80% so you're not surprised. If you hit the cap, AI drafting pauses. You can still send and receive texts normally. Upgrade anytime mid-month and the limit resets right away.
