Built in Ferintosh.
For Alberta plumbers.
BuddyHelps exists because plumbers shouldn't lose jobs while doing jobs.
Why we built BuddyHelps
Here's what we kept hearing from plumbers:
"I can't be in two places at once. When I'm elbow-deep under a sink, I can't answer the phone."
"The winner isn't the best plumber. It's the first plumber to speak to them."
"I'm paying $50 for a HomeStars lead and then missing the call because I'm on a job."
The math is brutal. Miss 3 calls a week, lose $28,000 a year. Not because you're bad at plumbing - because you're busy doing plumbing.
Answering services exist, but they're expensive ($300-400/month), charge by the minute, and the people answering don't know a P-trap from a shut-off valve.
So we built something better. An AI that actually has conversations, understands plumbing, and costs less than losing one job. We called him Buddy.

The team behind Buddy
Cameron O'Brien
Founder
Cameron built BuddyHelps after hearing the same story from plumbers over and over: "I'm losing jobs because I can't answer my phone."
He's a software developer based in Ferintosh, Alberta, with a new baby at home and a wife who keeps everything running. He built BuddyHelps because he knows what it's like to want to be present for your family without letting your business suffer.
