KoruAI vs ServiceTitan

Workflow software for 5–25 person NZ plumbing & electrical crews

ServiceTitan was built for US multi-trade enterprises — and it shows once you cross the equator. PGDB records, EWRB notices, E2/AS1 building-code triggers and NZ Spam Act 2003 follow-ups all sit outside its product. KoruAI is NZ-built around those exact obligations, with pricing that fits a 5–25 person crew rather than a per-tech enterprise band. Compare the two side by side on the things that actually cost you a callback.

KoruAI vs ServiceTitan for NZ trade crews

A side-by-side of the capabilities that actually matter on an NZ trade job — invoicing, compliance records, building-code triggers and the follow-up sequence that gets you paid — pitched against ServiceTitan, the US-built enterprise platform most NZ crews are upsold into once they outgrow the spreadsheets.

What sets KoruAI apart

Four things NZ-specific competitors miss

These are the NZ-shaped features a US-built enterprise platform like ServiceTitan or a spreadsheet workflow doesn't cover. Each one maps to a regulator, code clause, or statute that's actually in force.

PGDB-aware

Compliance records drafted against the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board's actual framework — not a generic form dressed up for NZ.

E2/AS1 triggers

Job notes are scanned for Acceptable Solutions E2 (External moisture) and AS1 (Plumbing) triggers. Flagged drafts appear before backflow is forgotten.

EWRB cross-scope detection

Notices a job crosses the sparky/plumber boundary and flags it for EWRB sign-off — instead of letting the tradie file it under the wrong register.

NZ spam-act compliance

Every follow-up sequence carries a working unsubscribe, suppression list, and sender identity that satisfies the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007.

Frequently asked

Common questions from NZ tradies

Plain answers to the questions we hear most often from plumbing, electrical and gasfitting crews weighing up KoruAI against a spreadsheet, a US-built enterprise platform, or just doing nothing.

Will KoruAI gouge me on per-lead or per-job fees?

No — KoruAI is fixed-tier monthly pricing sized for 5–25 person NZ crews, from $49/mo. No per-lead retail, no per-job surcharges, no commission on a job you already closed.

How quickly will you reply after I request a demo?

First message inside one business day, demo booked within five. We staff the inboxes ourselves — no SDR queue, no US call centre — so the reply comes from someone who can answer NZ compliance questions on the spot.

Will KoruAI spam my customers with marketing texts and emails?

No. Every follow-up sequence carries a working unsubscribe, a suppression list, and a sender identity that satisfies the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007. Customers opt out once and stay out.

Does KoruAI integrate with my existing CRM, Xero, or MYOB?

Xero invoice push is live today. MYOB and most Salesforce-style CRMs sit on the API roadmap — currently reachable via the public REST API and webhook events. Tell us your stack on the demo and we'll confirm what's wired.

Is KoruAI set up for NZ GST and registered-trades pricing?

Yes — invoices ship GST-inclusive by default, with EWRB and PGDB register fields aligned so your tax and licensing paperwork lines up. The full GST breakdown sits on the /pricing page.

How much of my week will KoruAI actually take?

Onboarding is a focused 30–60 min session. Day-to-day use is minutes: open the app at the job, attach the photo, send the invoice. Less admin, more jobs billed out the same day.

Which trades are live on KoruAI right now?

Plumbing, gasfitting, drainlaying, and electrical are live today with their own compliance templates. Roofing, HVAC and general building are on the roadmap — email if you want them prioritised.

Where can I see what each KoruAI plan actually costs?

The full pricing breakdown — tier, what is included, GST treatment — sits on the /pricing page. Three plans for 5–25 person crews, from $49/month, no per-tech add-ons.
