NOTES FOR THE NEXT SERVICE CALL
Your tech documents what they found — model numbers, readings, parts replaced, what to check next time. The next tech taps and sees it all. No more starting from scratch on callbacks.
Your Tools. Your Crew. Your Proof.
When your tech finishes a job, one tap leaves notes for the next guy — what was found, what tests were done, readings, what to check next. GPS-timestamped. Cryptographically signed. No app. No login.

Good. Keep it. We're not replacing your dispatch, your invoicing, or your scheduling. We do the one thing they don't.
One tap. Same Dot. Here's what it does:
Service history — Notes from the last tech for the next guy. On the equipment itself.
Tool custody — Who has the crimper. Who had it last. When it moved.
Tool room — What's checked out, what's in, who took it, when they brought it back.
Crew check-in — Who tapped into which truck this morning. Who hasn't.
Owner dashboard — Your crew, your trucks, your tools, your equipment. One screen. Real time.
Your dispatch software knows who's going where.
TALOS knows what happened when they got there.
And everything above comes from the same tap. One Dot. No app. No login. 30 seconds.

When your next tech shows up to a callback, how do they know what the first tech found? With TALOS, they tap and see everything.
TALOS puts that note on the equipment, not in someone's memory, not in a group text, not buried in a folder nobody opens, or on a clipboard already overflowing with printouts and handwritten notes.
The next tech taps the Dot and starts with the last tech's hard earned knowledge.
That is where the habit starts. The Dot helps the guy in front of the equipment get started sooner and with better information.
Then it starts answering the bigger question: when you need to send Truck 3 across town, how do you know it has the right tools on it?
Every tap adds to the story of that piece of equipment. Who serviced it. What they found. What they did. The next tech picks up where the last one left off.
Notes first. Tool visibility built in.
Tap. See the note. Know what's there.
1 in 5 service calls requires a return visit.
IBM / Aberdeen Group
That's not unusual. Callbacks happen — wrong part, bad diagnosis, scope changes. That's the job.
The expensive part is what happens next. When your second tech shows up and starts from scratch — re-diagnosing what the first tech already found — that's not a callback. That's two first visits. At $650 per callback1 — tech time, overhead, and lost opportunity — that math gets ugly fast.
TALOS puts the last tech's notes in the next tech's hands. One tap. What was found. What was tried. What to check next. No phone calls. No guessing. No wasted hours retracing someone else's work.
Service History First. Custody Built In.
PROOF OF CUSTODY — BUILT IN
Every tap creates a GPS-timestamped, cryptographically signed record. You know who had what, when, and where. That's your insurance documentation and accountability layer — automatically.
NO APP. NO LOGIN. NO TRAINING.
TALOS works in the phone's browser. Your crew taps like they're paying for coffee. If they can use Apple Pay, they can use TALOS. Nothing to install. Nothing to learn.
The TALOS Dot shows who tapped, when they tapped, where they tapped, and what they need to know about the last service call to that equipment. It also builds the record of what's on the truck. We all know equipment moves, gets borrowed, or disappears. TALOS shows you the trip receipts. The Dot doesn't care what it's on — it just tells you what you need to know.
Know before you dispatch.
Every note your tech leaves is dispatch intelligence for the next call.

One call, not three
Before TALOS, the dispatcher sends a truck. Tech arrives, realizes he needs a mega press he doesn't have. Drives back. Second trip.
With TALOS, the dispatcher reads the notes first. One phone call: "Tony, you got a mega press? Good — take Building C." Right tech, right tools, one trip.

Your Tech on a Ladder
Mid-diagnosis. Phone rings.
23 min
average time to regain focus after one interruption

The Interruption Cost
Without TALOS
Dispatcher calls tech: "What did you find last Thursday?"
3-minute call. 23-minute recovery. Diagnosis lost.
With TALOS
Dispatcher reads the note on the dashboard.
Zero calls. Zero interruptions. Tech stays in the zone.
3 calls a day × 23 minutes = $14,000/year in lost focus. The note on the equipment saves the call.

The clipboard won.
When you started your company, everyone thought the same thing: why leave a solid paycheck to make less and work more? Because you knew there was a better way.
Then the tech companies showed up with their better way. Dedicated apps. Required logins. Training sessions. Systems that cost more than the tools they were supposed to protect.
The guy with mud on his boots looked at it and went back to the clipboard. Not because it's better. Because it worked. Simple and seamless, no training, easy.
But every tool accountability system on the market works the same way — you notice something's missing, then you start looking. That's not accountability. That's cleanup.
The clipboard can't tell you what's on truck 3 when dispatch gets an emergency call at 9 PM. And the app your crew wouldn't open can't either.
TALOS works before something goes missing. One tap builds the record. When something does disappear, you don't start making calls. You already know who had it last, where they were, and when.
TALOS is the clipboard — with proof. One tap. No app. Unforgeable.
Setup in Minutes
Three dot types. Three roles. Each one takes less than 60 seconds.
Owner Dot
Included free with every order. Tap it, enter the 6-digit PIN from your welcome email, add your phone number. You now have full dashboard access and your device is locked to your company.
Manager & Dispatch Dot
Hand this dot to your manager or dispatcher. They tap it, enter their phone number and optional email. Registered instantly. If they add an email, they get a dashboard login link. No PIN needed — the owner's activation unlocks their access.
Field Dot
Attach to any tool or equipment. When a tech taps it for the first time, they name it, pick a category, and optionally add serial and model numbers. From that point on, every tap logs who had it, when, where, and any notes they leave for the next tech.
Every order ships with 1 Owner Dot + 1 Manager/Dispatch Dot free. You only pay for field dots.

Google Review Cards
Reviews win work. The hard part is asking. Your tech finishes the job and hands the customer a card: “If you’re happy with the work, tap this.” One tap opens your Google review page — no app, no QR squinting, no typing your business name. Each card belongs to the tech who carries it, so your dashboard shows exactly who’s bringing home the stars.
- • One tap → your Google review page
- • Registered to each tech — see who earns the most reviews
- • Every tap counted on your owner dashboard
- • Yours to keep — one price, no subscription

Frequently Asked Questions
Most contractors have a system for everything — except knowing where their tools are.
TALOS fixes that in two seconds.
TALOS Stops S.T.E.A.L.
Five things draining your margin right now. One dot fixes all of them.
S
Stolen Tools
Not stolen by strangers. Stolen by the job site, the weekend, the guy who 'borrowed it real quick.' The $1,800 Greenlee bender that was definitely on Truck 2 and is now definitely not. TALOS won't stop the borrowing — but it'll show you who had it last and when it walked.
T
Time Wasted Searching
Your tech calls the office about a unit he didn't work on last time. Now your dispatcher is calling the tech who did. Two guys on two job sites, both standing around while someone digs through a clipboard to figure out what happened last Thursday. That's not a tool problem. That's a documentation problem. TALOS puts the answer on the equipment. Tap. Read. Get to work.
E
Equipment Walking Off
Nobody stole it. It just migrated to a different crew, a different truck, a different job site. Nobody knows where it went because nobody wrote it down. Worse — nobody wrote down what they did to it while they had it. TALOS writes it all down.
A
Apprentice "I Don't Know"
Three words that cost you more than the tool. But "I don't know" isn't always a lie — sometimes the apprentice genuinely doesn't know because the last tech didn't leave notes. TALOS makes sure the next guy always knows what the last guy found — whether that's your 20-year journeyman or your first-week apprentice.
L
Lost Insurance Claims
Your adjuster doesn't care what you remember. They care what you can prove. A tap record with a GPS timestamp and a cryptographic signature is the kind of documentation that holds up. A spreadsheet you updated from memory two weeks after the theft doesn't.
