Fred Voccola, CEO of @simprosoftware, on AI for the trades, which run on margins far thinner than the software industry ever thinks about. The ROI here is unglamorous and immediate. Cut repeat visits by prepping the job properly, get the right tech there with the right materials, tighten routing. Agents acting as affordable back office staff for contractors who could never justify hiring someone for collections follow up or documentation. buzzsprout.com/2228835/episo…

AI agents might be the most useful thing we have built and the most disruptive, both at the same time. Simpro joined me to talk what that looks like on the ground. Full thing on techimpact.tv xitter.cf/TechImpactTV/status/20…

The future of work is not just happening in offices, dashboards, and meeting rooms. It is happening in the truck. On the job site. At the customer’s door. In the moments where a technician has to diagnose the issue, find the right part, update the customer, close the loop, and move on to the next call. That was the focus of my conversation with Fred Voccola, Chairman & CEO of @simprosoftware, co-founder and former CEO of Kaseya, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and author of The Coming Disruption. Fred has spent decades building and scaling software companies, and now he’s focused on one of the biggest opportunities in technology: bringing modern tools to the trades. (Adam Mendler) Field service is one of those massive parts of the economy that people rely on every day, but rarely think about until something breaks. HVAC, plumbing, electrical, facilities, security, maintenance, telecom, and construction. The work is complex, physical, urgent, and still full of friction. What makes this conversation interesting is that it is not really about software. It is about the people doing the work. The technicians, contractors, and field teams who keep businesses running, buildings operational, and communities functioning. Better scheduling. Better information. Fewer repeat visits. Less paperwork. More time solving problems and serving customers. The technician is not fading into the background. The technician is becoming the center of a more connected, more efficient service business. Join us on @TechImpactTV with @simprosoftware as we discuss The Coming Disruption and what comes next for the trades. #FieldService #Trades #FutureOfWork #TechImpactTV #Simpro
