End-to-End Gas Software
on the platform your team already knows.

We are not another job management product. We are the team that takes the platform you already run — Simpro, ServiceM8, Tradify or something custom — and makes it do the bits it cannot do today.

AI, automation, integrations and custom apps built around how your gas business actually runs. GCC workflows, CO testing programs, combustion analyser data capture, AS/NZS 5601.1 documentation, dual electrical-gas certificate workflows and Xero/MYOB integration.

Sound Familiar?

Six common situations we work in. Pick the one that lands closest — we'll show you how we typically untangle it.

Gasfitter's hands adjusting a boiler system with precision instruments — the kind of job that cannot be invoiced until the GCC is lodged
Gas Compliance Certificate workflow incomplete — no invoice goes out

Gas Compliance Certificate workflow incomplete — no invoice goes out

Gas Compliance Certificates drafted on paper, never signed off in time. Lodgement to the state gas authority sitting on the office manager's desk for a week. The customer cannot get the certificate, the invoice is blocked, the cashflow takes the hit.

When the next audit lands — or the customer's insurer calls asking for the GCC reference — the team spends two days reconstructing what actually happened from email threads, paper job cards and the gasfitter's phone camera roll.

We build the GCC workflow into the field — drafted from the job record on completion, signed digitally by the licensed gasfitter on the device, filed against the job, lodged with the state regulator and dispatched to the customer the same day the work is signed off. Invoice triggers from the same event, not a manual handoff.

What we offer

Four core capabilities, applied to gas operations

AI, automation, integrations and custom apps — built on top of the platform your gas business already runs.

AI built into gas workflows where it removes real work

What. Practical AI for gas operations — not a chatbot for the sake of it. Combustion data trend analysis across visits to the same asset, GCC pre-fill from job data, appliance failure prediction from service history, and AI-assisted maintenance forecasting that turns servicing into a programmatic offering rather than a reactive call-out.

How. We integrate AI models into the workflow you already run. Whether you use Simpro, ServiceM8 or Tradify, the AI sits as a layer that reads combustion analyser data, job history and appliance records — and surfaces alerts the gasfitter approves, rather than generating from scratch.

Workflow automation across the gas job lifecycle

What. Automation for the repetitive parts of a gas operation: booking confirmations, on-the-way SMS, CO testing reminder programs for property portfolios, GCC dispatch on completion, scheduled service campaigns for hot water and commercial appliances, payment chase sequences and renewal reminders for service agreements.

How. We map your current workflow end-to-end, identify where staff are re-keying data or chasing customers manually, and build automations that run those steps in the background. Built on top of your existing job platform so nothing is replaced — only the manual middle steps disappear. Workflow automation connected to the tools you already pay for, including Xero and MYOB.

Integrations that make the platforms you already run talk to each other

What. Custom integrations between your job management (Simpro, ServiceM8, Tradify), accounting (Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks), rostering (Deputy, Employment Hero), state gas authority lodgement portals, gas wholesaler APIs (Reece Plumbing+Gas), Bluetooth combustion analyser data capture and payment processors.

How. We design the data flows that make sense for how gas work actually runs: job → invoice, combustion reading → asset record, GCC → regulator portal, materials → purchase order, customer → CRM. Standard APIs where they exist; custom middleware and APIs where they do not.

Custom apps for the bits your job platform was never built to handle

What. CO testing program portals for property managers, GCC workflow tools with regulator submission tracking, combustion analyser data capture and trending apps, dual electrical-gas certificate workflows, AI-assisted service forecasting, commercial kitchen and LPG conversion estimating engines — custom-built when the standard product hits its ceiling.

How. We build the custom app as a layer that sits alongside your existing job platform. Your team keeps using the tool they know; the new capability slots in as a separate web or mobile app that reads from and writes to your job data via API. Designed around the actual work — not generic templates wrapped in your logo.

Integrations

Systems we connect for gas contractors

Job management platforms, accounting tools, rostering, Bluetooth instruments, regulator lodgement portals, suppliers and payments — all flowing into and out of your job record.

Simpro, ServiceM8, Tradify

We extend, integrate with and customise around all three. Custom GCC workflows, CO testing portals, dual-certificate workflows, combustion analyser integrations and multi-division reporting — built on top of the platform your team already knows.

Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks

Automated invoicing, quotes, supplier bills, payroll and bank reconciliation. Job data flows directly to your accounting platform — and back — without double entry across residential service, commercial install and maintenance divisions.

Combustion Analyser Data

Bluetooth combustion analyser readings (CO, CO2, O2, flue draft) captured straight onto the job and asset record. Trended over time, flagged when out of spec, no manual transcription.

Deputy, Employment Hero

Rostering, leave management, on-call rotations and labour-cost feeds. Licensed gasfitter and Type A authorisations enforced at scheduling. Timesheets reconciled with jobs so payroll matches reality.

State Authority Lodgement

GCC and CO testing report lodgement to state gas regulator portals. Submission status tracked back against the job, so the certificate, lodgement and invoice trigger as one event, not three.

Online Payments

Stripe, Square or eWAY for in-field card payments and online invoice payment. Reconciled back to the job and the accounting system automatically — including pay-now links on the invoice SMS.

Case Study

GCC workflow and CO testing portal on top of an existing platform

A 12-person gas servicing and installation contractor already running their core job management. We added a GCC workflow with regulator lodgement, a property-manager CO testing portal and a combustion analyser data-capture layer — without replacing the tool the team used every day. GCC turnaround dropped from days to hours, CO testing renewal capture rose from 72 to 96 percent, and invoice-to-payment time halved.

Zero Missed gas authority lodgements

We were three years into Simpro and the team knew the tool. The problem was the GCC backlog after every busy week, the property managers asking for a CO testing portal, and combustion readings disappearing into paper forms. We did not want to switch platforms. HELLO PEOPLE built a GCC workflow with regulator lodgement, a CO testing portal and a combustion data layer that sit on top of Simpro. The team kept using Simpro every day; the new capability just appeared alongside it. Six months later, the GCC backlog is gone, the portfolios are renewing on time, and we know our margin by job type every week.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about gas software

What kind of software do gas contractors actually need?

At a minimum: job management, quoting, scheduling, a field app for gasfitters and accounting integration. Most gas businesses get that from Simpro, ServiceM8 or Tradify. What those tools do not cover well is the work specific to gas — GCC workflow and lodgement, AS/NZS 5601.1 documentation, Type A appliance servicing rules, licensed gasfitter role enforcement, combustion analyser data capture, CO testing programs and dual electrical-gas certificate workflows. That is the layer we typically build on top.

We already use Simpro / ServiceM8 / Tradify. Do we need to switch?

No. We are not in the business of replacing software that is working. If your team already knows Simpro, ServiceM8 or Tradify, the cost of switching almost always outweighs the gain. The smarter move is to extend the platform you have — bolt on a GCC workflow, a CO testing portal, a combustion analyser data capture or an integration the platform does not offer cleanly. That keeps your team productive and lets us focus on the 10 to 30 percent of your operation that the standard product cannot handle.

Can the system handle Gas Compliance Certificates and lodgement?

Yes. We build the GCC workflow into the field app — appliance and pipework details captured against the job, certificate drafted from the job record, digitally signed on-device by the licensed gasfitter, lodged with the state gas authority and dispatched to the customer the same day. The invoice triggers from the same event, so cashflow stops waiting for the certificate to clear.

How do you handle CO testing programs for rental portfolios?

Every appliance and tenant tracked against its renewal date, customer and site details linked, automated reminder cascade to the property manager and the office before the window expires, jobs scheduled into the field calendar, safety reports lodged with the property manager (and regulator where applicable). The whole program runs without anyone needing to remember it manually — and renewal capture rates climb from the typical 70 to 80 percent to consistently above 95.

Can you capture combustion analyser data?

Yes. Bluetooth combustion analyser readings (CO, CO2, O2, flue draft) capture straight onto the job and the asset record. Trended automatically over time so slow degradation across visits to the same appliance becomes visible. Out-of-spec readings flagged for the office, not buried in a paper form that someone has to type up next week.

How does this work with our existing job platform?

We integrate with the platform's API and build the extension as a separate layer that reads from and writes to the platform. Your team keeps using the tool they know; the new functionality (a GCC workflow, a CO testing portal, a combustion data capture app, a margin dashboard) sits alongside. Data stays in one source of truth — your job management platform — with our layer extending it.

Can you connect Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks?

Yes. Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks integration are standard. Multi-entity gas contractors with separate ABNs for residential service, commercial install and LPG divisions are supported cleanly — revenue, GST and payroll split per entity without manual rekeying.

Can AI help with gas servicing, compliance or admin?

Yes, where the data supports it. AI automation can analyse combustion data trends across visits to flag a degrading appliance, pre-fill GCCs from job data, summarise long commercial scope documents and predict service intervals from asset history. We only add AI where it removes real work — not because it sounds good in a brochure.

How are projects priced?

Fixed-price after a 15-minute scoping call followed by a deeper requirements session. You know the cost before any code is written. We deliver in stages so you see progress early and start using the highest-value piece while later modules are still being built. No hourly billing that drifts; no surprises at the end.
