Five shops. Lifetime price lock.
Then we're done.
FieldBrain is early. The first five shops on board don't get a discount — they get a price lock for life, free onboarding, and a direct line to the operator for 90 days. We're picking five founding partners who help define what good looks like. Then the door closes.
Questions first? floyd@depalma.ai
What founding customers get.
Six things. The value is the lock and the access — not a discount.
Retail price holds — $1,499/mo
No founder discount. 5 techs included, +$149/mo per additional tech. The honesty is the point.
$0 onboarding
Waives the standard $2,500 setup fee. Records imported, agents configured, your shop live in days.
Lifetime price lock at $1,499/mo
When retail rises later, founding customers stay locked. Lock survives only while continuously subscribed.
Founding member status
Named in the founding cohort with permission. Since-2026 badge — there are only five of these.
Direct line to DePalma for 90 days
Text or call us. Not a ticket queue, not an SDR — the operator answering the phone.
Weekly 30-min feedback call for 90 days
Roadmap input. You see what's being built and you push priorities. Feedback flows both ways.
Month-to-month from day one. No contract, no minimum commitment, no penalty if you walk. Founding-member benefits survive only while you're continuously subscribed — they're tied to staying, not to a signature.
What we ask in return.
A fair trade between adults. Not fine print.
Case study rights
Logo, story, named quotes, before/after numbers — once results land. Drafts shared with you for review before anything publishes.
Reference rights
Prospects may call you directly. Capped at two calls per month for the first year — at your convenience.
Weekly feedback call for 90 days
The same 30 minutes that serves you. Feedback flows both ways — you'll see the roadmap as it's being built.
Is this you?
The cohort is sized narrow on purpose.
Yes
Built for owners who run the dispatch board themselves.
- Field-service operator — HVAC, refrigeration, commercial maintenance, or close adjacency
- 5–10 technicians
- Owner/operator with decision authority
- Ready to onboard in the next 30–60 days
- Real intent to run the product, not just kick tires
3–4 techs or 11–20 techs? Apply anyway — we handle those case-by-case.
Probably not
A clean "not yet" saves both of us time.
- —1–2 techs (too small to need a dispatcher)
- —50+ techs (wrong product shape)
- —No decision authority — committees, corporate sign-off
- —Just researching or benchmarking vendors
Not a no forever — just a no for this cohort. The retail waitlist is open via /contact.

The five questions every owner asks.
Why no commitment? Aren't you worried about people just cancelling?+
Honestly, no. If a customer wants out, we'd rather they walk than feel trapped. The thing that's worth being careful about isn't a contract — it's that the founding perks are tied to staying. Price lock, $0 onboarding waiver, direct line to DePalma: those survive only while you're continuously subscribed. Cancel and come back later, you come back at then-current retail.
What does the price lock actually cover?+
The $1,499/mo base and the $149/tech overage rate. Both stay locked for as long as you're continuously subscribed. There's a single safety-valve clause for outlier usage that materially exceeds shop-size norms or future major capability additions — handled with 60 days' written notice. Not a price-hike trigger. A single-customer outlier valve.
Why only 5 shops?+
It's the number we can give weekly hands-on time to without it falling apart. Five owners on the phone every Friday for 90 days is real work — that's the cap.
What if I'm slightly outside the 5–10 tech range?+
Apply anyway. 3–4 techs or 11–20 techs gets a manual look. The hard outs are 1–2 techs (too small) and 50+ (wrong product shape).
What about results from H&H Equipment Service?+
H&H goes live the week of April 27. We imported their records (2,200+) in 48 hours and their techs didn't sit through a training session. Results — time saved, dispatch outcomes — will land over the coming months. We're not making outcome claims yet, on principle.
Tell us about your shop.
Eight fields. We read every one.
Plain-text email. No marketing sequence. We answer within 24 hours — yes or no.
Five shops. Then we're done.
The scarce thing isn't the price — it's the founder access. We can give weekly hands-on time to five owners. After that the math stops working.
