Overview

About Pipeline

Pipeline is an innovative tool designed for home service companies to enhance their lead generation capabilities by identifying anonymous website visitors. Unlike traditional methods that rely on form submissions, Pipeline captures valuable information about potential customers who browse your site without engaging directly. This tool can identify up to 40% of your website traffic, significantly increasing your lead pool compared to the industry average conversion rate of just 4%. By leveraging Pipeline, contractors can fill their sales pipeline with names, emails, and addresses, allowing for targeted follow-ups that can convert these leads into customers. With seamless integration into existing CRM systems, Pipeline supports various outreach methods such as emails, calls, texts, postcards, and even door knocking, ensuring that no potential lead is left behind.

About Playwriter

AI agents cannot browse the web properly. They either have no browser access, or they get a fresh Chrome with no logins, no extensions, and instant bot detection. Playwriter gives them your actual browser session instead. One Chrome extension, full automation API, everything you are already logged into. Includes accessibility snapshots (5-20KB instead of 100KB+ screenshots), a debugger with breakpoints, live code editing, network interception, and video recording. Works with any MCP client: Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and more. Open source, MIT licensed.
