Build a Simple CRM for Trades Businesses
10/15The Opportunity
HVAC and plumbing shops tried 4+ CRMs and hate them all. Jobber is overkill for sub-10 person crews.
Original Signal
“Our support team started using AI-generated answers and a customer caught a completely made-up policy that we'd sent them. It's one bad hallucination away from a real legal problem.”
Score Breakdown
10/15How urgently people need this solved and how willing they are to pay for it. Based on complaint frequency and spending signals across platforms.
How open the market is. A high score means few or no direct competitors, or existing solutions are overpriced and underdeliver.
How quickly a solo developer can ship an MVP. 5 = weekend project with standard tools. 1 = months of infrastructure work.
Existing Solutions
Grounded outputs in Azure OpenAI require significant setup and aren't user-friendly for non-engineers. Factcheck.ai is early and unreliable for domain-specific content.
Willingness to Pay
Businesses using AI for customer-facing content pay $29-79/mo for content quality tools; fact-checking middleware at $49/mo targets a clear compliance pain.
