Overview

About Pipeline

Pipeline is an innovative tool designed specifically for home service companies that enables businesses to identify anonymous website visitors, increasing the potential for lead generation. Unlike traditional methods that rely on form submissions, Pipeline captures valuable visitor information such as names, emails, and addresses without requiring any form fill-out. This capability allows companies to tap into an average of 40% of their website traffic, significantly enhancing the lead conversion rate compared to the industry average of just 4%. By integrating seamlessly with existing CRM systems, Pipeline empowers contractors to automate their outreach efforts, facilitating email campaigns, call scheduling, text reminders, postcard drops, and even door knocking. The result? A fully optimized pipeline filled with qualified leads, ready to convert into loyal customers. With a simple setup process and no long-term contracts, Pipeline is a game-changer for contractors seeking to maximize their online presence and capture missed opportunities.

About Playwriter

AI agents cannot browse the web properly. They either have no browser access, or they get a fresh Chrome with no logins, no extensions, and instant bot detection. Playwriter gives them your actual browser session instead. One Chrome extension, full automation API, everything you are already logged into. Includes accessibility snapshots (5-20KB instead of 100KB+ screenshots), a debugger with breakpoints, live code editing, network interception, and video recording. Works with any MCP client: Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and more. Open source, MIT licensed.
