Straight Talk

See prices.

Find workers. Mail smarter. Know repair costs. Spanish speakers find your job. Mail only to your blocks. No waste.

The biggest thing this month was publishing repair cost data for South Texas. We've been writing estimates for local repair work for a while now. We decided to publish what that data actually says. You can see what roofing costs in Corpus Christi. What HVAC costs in Alice. The range based on work we've priced.

We also finished the jobs board in Spanish. You post once in English. Workers can read it in Spanish. It's a way to reach more people in South Texas without making the work harder.

And we shipped a new postcard size for our postcard mailer. It's big enough to grab attention in a mailbox. It's built end-to-end, so you can design it, pick your neighborhood, and mail it. We track which calls came from which cards.

All of it is the same idea. Make the boring stuff work better. Make it honest. Make it useful to regular people.
