Built by a Texan, for the trades
GetTradeReady was built in Houston by someone who's always been around contractors and saw firsthand how much time they were losing to paperwork, unanswered texts, and tools that promised everything but delivered confusion.
Edwin
Data Engineer & Founder
I'm a Houston native, a dad, and a data engineer who loves to automate things. Growing up around do-it-yourself people taught me the value of just getting things done. No fluff, no overcomplications.
I built my first tool for a local HVAC company who was tired of driving miles to quote jobs that didn't go anywhere. Then a gate company came to me frustrated. They were writing work orders by hand, tracking techs by text, and building invoices one by one. I knew I could fix that.
What started as a small project became GetTradeReady. Not because I set out to compete with the big software companies, but because every contractor I talked to said the same thing: “I don't need all that. I just need a few things that actually work for my business.” That's exactly what I built.
Software that works the way your business does
The big platforms are built for everyone, which means they're really built for no one. GetTradeReady is curated for small trade contractors who want dispatch, work orders, invoicing, and QuickBooks sync without the noise. And if you need something custom automated, we build it with you. No empty promises. Just results.
Every feature exists because a real contractor asked for it. No bloat, no features you'll never touch.
One flat monthly fee. Unlimited techs. No surprises. Ever.
Our first customer said it best: “This is more than what I could have asked for. Everything I envisioned actually happened.” That's the standard we hold ourselves to.
