Electric-AI handles crew dispatch, permit paperwork, NEC compliance tracking, and on-site invoicing -- so your team spends more time wired in and less time waiting on office calls that never come.
Where the margin goes
Electrical contracting is a high-skill, high-demand trade. The logistics around the work should not be harder than the work itself. Three places where most shops bleed margin every week.
One job runs two hours long and your dispatcher spends the next three hours on the phone rerouting four crews. Every change creates a new conflict. By noon, two techs are sitting idle waiting for a gate code nobody can find.
Residential and commercial jobs both require permits. Each municipality has its own portal, its own form set, its own quirks. A missed field delays the whole project. That is money sitting idle on a jobsite you already mobilized for.
Techs finish a job. Paperwork goes to the office. Office enters it, reviews it, sends it. Cash that should have cleared Tuesday clears Friday. At scale, this wrecks your float and your relationship with customers who want to pay quickly.
Platform capabilities
Six tools, one login. Each built specifically for electrical contractor workflows, not adapted from a generic field-service platform that was designed for plumbers or landscapers.
Drag-and-drop scheduling that reads crew certifications, current load, and job location in real time. When a job changes, the board auto-resolves conflicts and pushes updated routes to every tech's phone. Your dispatcher stops playing phone tag and starts managing exceptions.
Enter the job address and scope. Permit Pilot identifies the correct municipal portal, pulls the required forms, pre-fills every field it already knows, and flags the two or three that need your signature or a site-specific answer. Average time savings per permit: 47 minutes.
Before a tech closes out a job, Compliance Log cross-references the work scope against the current NEC edition and any local amendments active in that municipality. Potential violations surface as warnings before the inspector arrives, not as failed inspections that cost you a re-mobilization.
Crew completes the job, checks off the work order on their phone, taps Send Invoice. The customer receives a branded invoice in under 90 seconds with Stripe payment built in. You collect before the truck leaves the driveway. Accounts receivable shrinks from 9 days to under 3.
When your office closes, Electric-AI answers with your business name and your service area. The AI qualifies callers, captures contact details, logs urgency level, and schedules a callback window in your board. You arrive Monday with a prioritized lead list already built and ready to dispatch.
Track revenue by crew member, by job type, by zip code, and by month. Spot which service categories carry the best margin, which techs are most profitable per hour, and where your pipeline is thinning before it becomes a slow week. Connect to QuickBooks in four clicks.
"I used to spend the first two hours every morning sorting out who was going where. Now I drink my coffee and the board is already done."Marcus Rivera, owner, Rivera Electrical Services -- Phoenix, AZ

Come in Monday. Your leads are waiting, your schedule is pre-loaded, and every tech has their route on their phone before 7am.
From the field
These are owner-operators who were managing dispatch on whiteboards and invoicing by hand. Three examples of what changes after 30 days on Electric-AI.
"We run 8 trucks and were losing at least 3 hours a day to rescheduling. Electric-AI cut that to maybe 20 minutes. The dispatch board alone paid for the whole year in the first month."
"Permit Pilot is the most underrated part of this whole platform. We work across four municipalities. Before this I had four different logins, four different form sets. Now I do them all from one screen in a fraction of the time."
"On-site invoicing changed our cash flow completely. We were averaging 9 days to collect. Now it is under 3. Same work, same customers, same quality of job. Just a different tool for the last step."

Common questions
No. Electric-AI integrates alongside most field service scheduling tools via API. Many shops run them in parallel for 30 days, then let the old subscription lapse because Electric-AI covers it. We do not push a rip-and-replace approach.
We maintain a database of 2,400 municipal permit portals, updated quarterly. When you enter a job address, we match it to the correct portal and scope the required forms based on the work type you select. Local NEC amendments are flagged separately and kept current.
None specific. You point your existing after-hours number or an overflow line to your Electric-AI AI number via a standard call forward. Works with any carrier. Takes about four minutes to configure, and you can route it back to voicemail any time you want.
No. It is a job-level profitability view that QuickBooks does not give you without significant manual setup. Revenue by crew, margin by job type, cash flow by week -- all from the dispatch data Electric-AI already has. The QuickBooks sync keeps your books accurate in parallel.
Yes. Crew dispatch respects certification tiers and can be configured with shift rules, overtime thresholds, and journeyman-to-apprentice ratios per job type. Set these once in the admin panel and they apply automatically to every schedule the board generates.
