What DispatchCore is
DispatchCore is a visual dispatch and job management tool for small field service crews, including plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and low-voltage teams. Dispatchers can place jobs on technicians’ schedules with drag-and-drop controls and see crew capacity. Technicians update job status in the mobile app, with changes reflected on the dispatch board in real time. When connectivity is unavailable, the app keeps status changes and photos on the device and syncs them once it returns. Job records can include photos from before, during, and after work, as well as customer signatures collected on phones. Users can prepare estimates and recurring schedules, then turn approved estimates into jobs. DispatchCore also syncs invoices and payments with QuickBooks Online. Card payments go to the business’s Stripe account; the maker says it does not see or store card numbers and charges no platform fee during beta. The service runs on Android, iOS, and the web. A founding-member plan is listed at $39 a month, with the stated terms including free use during beta and no contract.
