The job you are losing right now

It is 2pm on a Tuesday. A homeowner in Mississauga submits a quote request through your website. They like your portfolio. They are ready to spend $40,000 on a kitchen renovation.

You are on a roof three towns over. Phone is in the truck.

By the time you see the form at 5pm, the homeowner has already submitted to two other contractors. One of them replied in 4 minutes. They are booked for a Thursday walkthrough.

You never even knew you lost the job.

This happens to GTA contractors every single day.

What changes when STL runs

Leads stop dying in the inbox. The homeowner hears from your business in minutes, not the next evening. You see who needs you before they move on to the next name on the list.

You run follow-up from your phone — between jobs, not from a desk. One place to see open leads, what needs a call, and what already moved forward.

Nothing slips because you were on a job. You get a short morning summary of what came in overnight and what still needs a human touch.

It is not a generic “we received your message” email. The reply reads like your business — enough to earn the call or the site visit.

No CRM login. No second app to learn. If you already use Telegram, it fits how you work. If not, onboarding is part of the install.

What it is not

It is not an autoresponder that only confirms receipt. The first reply is meant to earn the next step.
It is not a chatbot that replaces you. You close the job. STL shrinks the gap between “they asked” and “you answered.”
It is not a CRM that assumes you live in front of a laptop.

What you can buy

I work with 5 GTA contractors at a time.

Free Speed-to-Lead Score — 30-second form, you see what slow follow-up is costing you in dollars.
Speed-to-Lead Audit ($497) — 20-minute call + a 1-page report: where leads leaked, what it cost, what to fix in 7 days. Full refund if it was not worth it.
STL install ($2,500 one-time) — I wire everything to where your leads already come in and turn the full system on. White-glove, about a week.
STL Operator ($197/month) — It stays running, monitored, morning briefings on your schedule, one monthly review to tighten follow-up.

Most contractors recover the install cost in the first month.

Why me

I am Ahmed, Toronto. I built SolveTO — civic reporting and open data, live across the city, real residents using it.

I built STL because my own plumber took three weeks to call me back. I hired someone else. He never knew he lost the job. That is the same invisible leak your leads have.

I show up in person when it matters and I answer my own phone within an hour. That is the bar I hold STL to for your customers.

Twenty years ago every serious business hired for search and for social. The next recurring role is whoever makes follow-up and quotes actually run — not slides, not experiments. I am not a generic “AI consultant.” I am the speed-to-lead operator for a handful of GTA contractors at a time.

What is next on the product

Missed calls — the caller still gets helped and you see what happened on your phone.
Text follow-up — timed nudges so warm leads do not go cold.
Voicemail in plain language — you read the gist before you call back.

The goal: no lead waits because you did not see it in time.
