You're running jobs out of your head, your phone, and a WhatsApp thread you can't find. Backbone Ops captures what your contractors are already sending — and turns it into real job visibility. No new apps. No training. No drama.
See how it worksYou start your day texting four contractors asking if they showed up, what they got done yesterday, and what they need today.
Your job status lives in your head. If you got hit by a bus, nobody would know what's active, what's blocked, or what's waiting on materials.
You get a call asking for a status update. You stall while you scan three WhatsApp threads trying to remember what happened on that job.
A contractor went quiet. You don't know if the job is done, blocked, or abandoned. You'll find out tomorrow when it's too late to react.
Backbone Ops sits quietly behind your existing WhatsApp setup. Contractors send the same photos and voice notes they always have.
AI reads every message, extracts what matters — job status, materials needed, blockers, check-ins — and surfaces it on a dashboard before you've had your second coffee.
When a job goes quiet, you know. When a contractor is blocked on materials, you know. When a client calls for an update, you already have the answer.
It's just WhatsApp. Your contractor sends a message — the same way they always have. Backbone Ops figures out which job they're on, reads what they sent, and updates your dashboard automatically.
This is what you see while your contractors are just sending WhatsApp messages. Every job. Every status. No chasing.

Text, photo, or voice note. Exactly like they always have. Nothing changes on their end.
Every message is parsed — job code matched, status extracted, materials flagged, blockers identified.
Your job board reflects the latest status in real time. Blocked jobs are flagged. Quiet jobs get a reminder.
Daily summary drafted for your review. Client updates go out when you say so — never automatically.
Every active job. Current status, last update, assigned contractor, and any flags — all in one view you can actually trust.
If a contractor goes quiet, Backbone Ops follows up. You stop being the one chasing for updates at the end of every day.
AI drafts a full activity digest every afternoon. Review it, edit it, send it — or just use it to know exactly where things stand.
