Housecall Pro
· #153 most-usedThe field-service brain your technicians never have to babysit
Housecall Pro is the all-in-one platform for home-service businesses — scheduling, dispatching, estimating, invoicing, and customer communication in one place. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can book jobs the moment a lead comes in, fire invoices the second a technician marks work complete, chase overdue payments without a single phone call, and keep customers informed with perfectly-timed messages — all without touching the Housecall Pro dashboard yourself.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual steps between field events and office follow-up — invoice creation, review requests, customer notifications, and schedule updates run automatically the moment a job status changes.
What your Housecall Pro agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
Housecall Pro × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Job complete → invoice, review, and close
When a technician marks a job complete, your agent fires on the Housecall Pro completion event, reads the full job record, creates a finalised invoice, and sends the customer a review request — all before the tech pulls out of the driveway. It then posts a job-closed summary to Slack for the support team and drops a calendar reminder for the 30-day follow-up call. Zero dispatcher steps, zero forgotten invoices.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot
