Distance

AI Sales Automation for Home Services

Distance uses AI to automate sales follow-ups, qualify leads, and close more jobs, all without adding headcount. Built for cleaning crews, HVAC teams, pest control pros, and other field service businesses, Distance turns incoming inquiries into booked appointments with an always-on virtual sales agent (Miles) that texts, chats, and follows up until the job is won. No more missed leads or messy spreadsheets, just steady bookings and faster revenue.

Overall Value

Distance isn’t a generic CRM — it’s a sales automation engine made for service businesses. The platform captures leads, handles multi-channel conversations (SMS, chat, ticketing), and closes prospects using smart follow-ups and data-driven prompts. That reduces manual admin, shortens sales cycles, and boosts conversion rates, so teams spend less time chasing and more time doing the work that grows their business.
