Fix one broken workflow.
Pay when it works.

CQ builds custom software and automations for home services, home improvement, and homebuilding businesses. No assessment fee. No build fee. We earn our fee when the agreed result is verified.

Good first projects

Start where revenue,
time, or capacity leaks.

We do not begin with “Where should you use AI?” We begin with a recurring operating problem and the number it should move.

01

Leads that never become appointments

Respond faster, qualify consistently, route by territory and job type, and keep every inquiry visible until it is booked or disqualified.

Booking rate
02

Estimates that quietly go cold

Prioritize follow-up by project value, financing status, objection, age, and homeowner activity—not another generic CRM task.

Recovered gross profit
03

Sold jobs that are not ready to build

Catch missing measurements, selections, financing, permits, materials, photos, or approvals before the schedule and crew are disrupted.

Preventable reschedules
04

Brands that operate by different rules

Give a rollup one view of leads, sales, backlog, production, and exceptions without forcing every company onto the same workflow.

Cycle time by brand

How it works

Small scope.
Real operation.
Measured result.

No transformation program. No new system of record. One working improvement that can prove its value quickly.

1

Pick one costly workflow

We start with a problem your team already feels and your systems can measure. No paid assessment or transformation roadmap.

2

CQ builds the working fix

We connect the tools you already use and deliver the automation or small internal product inside the live operation.

3

Pay for the verified result

The baseline, target, source of truth, measurement window, and maximum fee are agreed before the build starts.

Outcome-only pricing

We take the
execution risk.

CQ is paid only when the agreed result is achieved.

The fee can be a fixed success payment or a capped share of verified incremental gross profit, savings, or recovered capacity. You keep the software, documentation, and operating logic we build.

Why CQ

Close enough to
make it work.

We have spent years inside technology companies serving the trades, home improvement, and residential construction.

We have watched operators buy capable software and still miss the result because workflow design, data, ownership, incentives, and adoption were treated as somebody else’s problem.

CQ owns the gap between buying technology and changing the operation. We work with individual businesses and rollup platforms, inside the systems and constraints they already have.
