The AI operating system for service businesses
The AI that actually
runs your service business.
Cleaning, pest control, HVAC, plumbing, lawn, pool, pressure washing — if you schedule crews and chase customers, ARKHOS runs it. It books the jobs, sends the right crew, talks to your customers, runs the money, and tells you exactly what to do next.
Onboarding in waves — join the launch list · no card · cancel anytime · set up in a day
One OS for every trade · connects the tools you already run on
If you own the business, you are the operations.
Every service owner we've met lives the same three days on repeat. This is what ARKHOS actually replaces.
The phone never stops
Quotes, reschedules, "are you coming?" — every message is you, at all hours. ARKHOS answers first, drafts the reply and waits for your tap.
Dispatch is a puzzle
Who's closest, who's rated, who's free — solved on paper, every single day. ARKHOS builds the route and tells the crew before you finish your coffee.
Money leaks quietly
Missed charges, unpaid invoices, tips that never reach the crew. ARKHOS charges the card, sends the invoice and reconciles to your books.
One OS for the trades that keep a home running.
Cleaning crews, techs, plumbers, lawn teams — different tools, same operation underneath. ARKHOS is tuned to each.

One OS replaces the 8 tools you glue together.
Most owners pay $400–600/mo across a stack of apps that don't talk to each other — plus the hours lost gluing them together by hand. ARKHOS is one system that already connects them.
Built on a real operation — not a demo. ARKHOS already runs 900+ customers, 260+ crew and 7,391 jobs.

Self-serve for customers. A phone-first day for crew.
ARKHOS isn't just your cockpit — it ships two branded portals so the people around your business can help themselves, and you stop being the middle of every message.
One engine, built for the way your trade actually works.
The engine underneath is identical. What changes per trade is the booking questions, the pricing rules, the dispatch logic and the language. Here's the specific value ARKHOS delivers in each.

Not a chatbot. An operator that does the work.
ARKHOS reads every lead, message, job and payment across your whole operation, then acts — the way a great office manager would, except instantly and at 3am. Here's the loop it runs, all day:
- 1Reads everythingA text, a form submission, a missed call, an unpaid invoice, a gap in tomorrow's route — it's all one live picture.
- 2Decides the next best actionQuote this lead, move that job, re-book this renewal, chase that card, confirm tomorrow's jobs.
- 3Proposes it to youEvery action shows up as a one-tap Approve / Dismiss — you see exactly what it wants to do and why.
- 4Runs it — then learnsOnce you trust a category, flip it to autopilot and it just happens. It adapts to how you say yes.
Approve-first by default
The AI can be aggressive on the busywork and cautious on anything risky. Money, messaging and deletions stay locked behind your explicit approval — and can't be talked into acting by a clever customer or a bad prompt.
Connects the tools you already run on.
ARKHOS plugs into the accounts you already have with a bring-your-own-key model — your payments, your number, your books stay yours. No rip-and-replace.
Payments
Charge cards, split tips, run deposits and refunds.
Accounting
Push receipts, payroll and expenses to QuickBooks — no manual exports.
Communications
Text, email and call from your own number — SMS, email and live-chat inboxes in one system.
Calendar & reviews
Sync jobs and turn happy customers into public 5-stars.
Analytics
See demand, revenue and lead sources in one place.
AI
The brain that reads it all and proposes the next move.

Questions, answered.
What is ARKHOS?
ARKHOS is an AI operating system that runs a service business on autopilot. It books jobs, prices them, assigns and routes the best crew, replies to customers and leads, runs charges, payroll and bookkeeping, and surfaces the next best action for you to approve — or fully automate. It's the productized engine behind Captain Duster, a real cleaning company running 900+ customers, 260+ crew and 7,391 jobs on this exact system.
What does ARKHOS actually do on its own?
It books jobs from your form, phone and texts; prices them; assigns the best crew; dispatches routes; replies to customers and leads; requests reviews; runs charges, payroll and bookkeeping; and surfaces the next best action for you to approve — or fully automate.
How much does ARKHOS cost?
Plans start at $99/mo for owner-operators (Starter), $299/mo for growing teams up to 15 crew (Growth), and $799/mo for multi-location (Scale). Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card. Most owners find it pays for itself in the first week by capturing leads they used to miss and replacing $400–600/mo of separate tools.
What kinds of businesses is it for?
Home and field service businesses that live on scheduling and dispatch: cleaning, pest control, HVAC, plumbing, lawn and landscaping, pool service, pressure washing, junk removal, handyman and detailing. Whether you book time-slot appointments or run recurring routes, the engine is the same; the booking form, pricing and language adapt to your trade.
What integrations does ARKHOS support?
ARKHOS connects the tools you already run on with a bring-your-own-key model: payments (Square), accounting (QuickBooks), communications (Twilio SMS, email, calls), calendar and reviews (Google), analytics, and AI. Your accounts and data stay yours — ARKHOS orchestrates them, it doesn't hold them hostage.
Do I need to be technical?
No. It's built for owner-operators. Connect your number and payments and the system runs the operation. Every automated action can require one-tap approval until you trust it.
Is my data safe and separate from other businesses?
Yes. ARKHOS is built for multi-tenant row-level isolation — a database-driver proxy with per-query guardrails, adversarially tested, and enforced per tenant as we onboard each business. Security is a continuous, adversarially-tested program, and money, messaging and deletions stay locked behind your explicit approval.
I already use other software — is switching a hassle?
No. You keep running your current tools while ARKHOS imports your customers, jobs and pricing in the background, then you switch over when you're ready — no gap and no lost data. Most owners run both for a few days, then flip the switch once they trust it.
How fast can I get set up?
Most owners are live within a day. You connect your phone number and payments, import or seed your customer list, and ARKHOS starts handling bookings and dispatch. Every automated action can require your one-tap approval until you trust it.
Can I cancel, or am I locked in?
No lock-in. The 14-day trial takes no credit card, your data stays exportable, and you can cancel anytime. We're onboarding in waves, so joining the launch list reserves your spot — you decide if you stay.
