BuildOps Put a Billion-Dollar Price on the Contractor’s Messy Back Office
Commercial contractors kept hospitals cold and data centers humming while their own businesses ran on spreadsheets, texts, and software sprawl. BuildOps turned that mismatch into a vertical SaaS company valued at $1 billion - but the real test happens during the three-month slog of changing how a shop works.
FieldPulse
FieldPulse is a Dallas-based software company that builds an all-in-one field service management (FSM) platform for residential and commercial trade businesses - HVAC, plumbing, electrical, garage door, appliance repair and more. Founded in 2015 by Gabriel (Gabe) Pinchev, the platform combines scheduling, dispatching, CRM, estimating, invoicing, payments, inventory and reporting into a single web and mobile app, and now layers AI-driven tools (Operator AI and Chat AI) that answer calls and web chats 24/7 to book jobs automatically. Backed by roughly $79 million in total funding - including a $50 million Series C in August 2025 - FieldPulse positions itself as a flexible, customizable alternative to enterprise-heavy rivals like ServiceTitan and simpler tools like Jobber and Housecall Pro.
