Book a call

Your engineers text you. The spreadsheet fills itself.

I build WhatsApp and Telegram bots for UK field service teams. Your lads send a message from site like they already do. It lands in your sheet, sorted, timestamped, and flagged when a job is blocked.

Currently taking on two businesses for a free pilot build, in exchange for an honest testimonial.

What paperwork is costing you

The reports are already being written. Twice.

Once by the engineer on site. Again by whoever types it into the system that evening. Everything below is the gap between those two.

2–3 hrs

A supervisor's evening, every evening, retyping messages into a sheet.

Next morning

How long a blocked job sits before anyone with authority hears about it.

The photos

Buried in a group chat. Nobody can find the one they need at invoice time.

Services

Three things I set up and then keep running.

Job reporting bot

Engineers message as normal on WhatsApp or Telegram. The bot reads it, works out the job number and status, writes the row, and asks a follow-up question when the message is too vague to log.

Photo and document capture

Site photos and paperwork go into storage against the right job, not into a group chat. Ask the bot for a job's photos and it sends them back.

Customer enquiry chatbot

A bot on your website or WhatsApp that answers the same five questions all day, takes details, and books the job into your calendar.

Already built and running

Two working systems, not slides.

WhatsApp job reporting bot

Built for telecoms field crews. Reads free-text WhatsApp reports, classifies each work point as done, blocked or unclear, writes it to Google Sheets, and alerts the manager on anything blocked. Asks the engineer a follow-up when the message doesn't say enough.

Telegram reporting and photo bot

Field workers send reports and photos through Telegram. Everything is stored against the job in a database. A manager can message the bot to pull back a specific report or the photos from a specific site.

How we'd start

Three steps. You do almost none of it.

  1. A 20-minute call

    You tell me how reports reach you now and where they get stuck. If automation won't help you, I'll say so on the call.

  2. I build it in about a week

    Set up against your real jobs and your real sheet. You send me one week of old messages so it's trained on how your team actually writes.

  3. Your team uses it as-is

    No app to install and no training day. They message the same way they message now. I stay on to fix and adjust it.

Two free pilot builds available.

I build it, run it, and you pay nothing. If it saves your supervisor their evening, you give me an honest testimonial and we talk about keeping it on. If it doesn't, we shake hands and you've lost a week of messages.
