AI for the Trades.
Built by tradesmen, for tradesmen.
$242 billion went into AI last year. Zero reached the 10 million skilled workers who keep America running. We're changing that — for the apprentice on the tools and the shop running them — by building tools you'll actually use, teaching the AI literacy you deserve, and defending your shop from AI-powered threats.
Three pillars
Build. Teach. Defend.
We don't do philanthropy to tradespeople — we do the work with them. Every tool we ship, every class we teach, every audit we run is pressure-tested in real shops.
BUILD
AI tools for trade work
Truck Inventory, AI Estimator, Job-Site Companion. Voice-first, mobile-first, built for a grease-covered thumb in 40° weather.

Who this is for
Pick your bay.
Most "AI for business" pitches go to the boss. We pitch to both — because the apprentice who learns this first is the one who walks into the shop on Monday with a workflow the owner didn't know existed.
If you're on the tools
AI didn't take your job. It's about to make you the one who knows it.
Apprentice, journeyman, solo op — the workers who learn this first stop getting yelled at, start getting raises, and walk into the shop with workflows the boss never asked for. Free seat every cohort for low-income tradespeople, no proof required.
If you run the shop
Train the crew. Audit the gaps. Stop losing $48k Tuesdays.
Crew rollouts, phishing audits, voice-clone drills, AI workflow training — customized to your trade and stack. We come to your bay or run it remote. Pilot pricing for the first 10 shops in NJ.

Why it matters
Hope is not an inventory system.
The tools tradespeople have been given to run their businesses are garbage. Clipboards, text threads, parts counts done from memory. Meanwhile the workforce is aging out — three retirees for every new tradesperson in NJ. We exist to close that gap with tools, training, and protection that actually work on a job site.
