INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
In this episode of Beers with Contractors, host Will and Terry recap meeting listeners at the National Foundation Repair Association Conference and discuss Will’s Bedrock Academy event, then welcome guests Rachael and Leslie from Oblyss. They explain how Oblyss was created to solve foundation repair contractors’ pain points with disconnected tech stacks by consolidating scheduling, estimating, production tracking, and data into a single “ecosystem” with one login, integrating with other tools via APIs. Rachael describes funding and developing the platform over several years and focusing on contractor feedback, while Leslie emphasizes canonical data, rapid development, and simplifying onboarding by pulling data from existing systems. They cover supply catalog integration and markups, plans for estimate-to-order workflows, and permit/engineering coordination, plus future ideas like homeowner portals with job tracking, reviews, and AI-driven communication.
