Breezeworks is a San Francisco-based software company that builds mobile-first business management tools for independent service professionals - plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, cleaners, landscapers and other on-the-go contractors. Its app bundles scheduling, dispatching, customer management, automated reminders, GPS team tracking, custom invoicing and integrated payments (via Square and Breezeworks Payments, with QuickBooks sync) so a solo operator or small crew can run the entire back office from a smartphone. Founded in 2012 and backed by Obvious Ventures and a roster of notable tech investors, Breezeworks aims to keep small service businesses independent and efficient.

The company markets a measurable outcome: boosting customers' operating margins by more than 40% within six months. In May 2023 it closed an eight-figure Series B round funded entirely by home-service business owners.
MotionOps is a Utah-based vertical SaaS platform that gives home service and home improvement contractors a single system to run their business - CRM, proposals, scheduling, invoicing, payments, timesheets, materials tracking, payroll prep and HR. Founded in 2021 by service-industry operator Trevor Maddux and software veteran Nikola Cvetkovic, it aims to replace the four or five disconnected tools that plumbers, electricians, remodelers, landscapers and cleaners typically stitch together.
