One build, 9 roles
Send status, ETA and running-late updates
Send status, ETA and running-late updates. Writes a plain update: where it stands, the new time, what is next, what we need from them. Only when something changed or an update was promised. This build has not been filmed yet; the page fills in once it is.

How it works
The loop
- 1. Trigger
A status change in the system (tech running late, load ETA moved, part arrived, condition cleared, candidate moved stage) or a promised update coming due.
- 2. Inputs
The job, load or file status, the schedule, the contact, and the last update sent.
- 3. Agent does
Writes a plain update: where it stands, the new time, what is next, what we need from them. Only when something changed or an update was promised.
- 4. A person checks
The dispatcher or advisor approves bad-news messages (late, delayed, denied). Routine 'on the way' and 'approved' messages go from templates.
- 5. Lands in
SMS or email from the system, note on the job.
Tools a non-coder uses: Claude Project. Zapier on a ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro webhook, a TMS email, or a status sheet. Native texting in the field service tool.
What changes per role: The unit, the clock and the reader. HVAC: minutes, homeowner. Trucking and freight: hours, broker or shipper. RV: days, owner waiting on parts. Mortgage: borrower, loan officer and realtor. Restoration: homeowner, in plain claim words. PM: client and stakeholders. Recruiter: candidates between stages. TC: clients and agents.
