Plain, working AI for the shop that can't stop to answer the phone.
Northwoods is a small company in Appleton, Wisconsin. We build the boring, useful kind of AI for trades and local businesses: things that take a job off your plate today, cost less than a part-time hire, and never need a manual.

What we sell
Northwoods Call Desk
A receptionist for the calls you can't take. When you're under a sink or on a roof, it answers as your assistant, gets the job, how urgent, the address and a budget, and gets it to you or whoever is on call within a minute, by text and by phone. You keep your number; one forwarding code turns it on. Free test on a spare number first.
Back office for trades
Estimates, customer emails and the schedule drafted from a two-minute voice note, in your own format and your own words. You approve, it sends. Built with a Fox Valley contractor first.
Short clips from your long videos
Your walkthroughs and job videos cut into captioned vertical clips for Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, reviewed by a person before you ever see them.
AI help and consulting
If you know the job you want off your desk but not the tool, tell us. We'll say honestly whether AI does it well today, and build it if it does.
How it works
- Call or reply. Fifteen minutes on the phone about the job you want gone.
- Free test. We set it up on a spare number or a small batch of your work. If it isn't earning its keep on day one, you owe nothing.
- Month to month. No contract. Prices are quoted on the call for your size of shop, in writing, before anything starts.
