## What it is for
Two seasons a year, forever, if the reminder actually fires.

The buyer is an owner or operator of a gutter cleaning & protection business
who is currently running the work across a calendar, a phone, a notebook and a
separate invoicing tool. xGUTTERx replaces that with one record per customer
and one record per job, carried from intake through pricing, dispatch, proof
of work, invoice and settlement.

## Category
Property & Real Estate — The buyer is an owner, a manager, or an agent. The deliverable is a documented
condition of an asset.

## What the platform assesses
Roofline imagery measures linear feet and stories, and debris photos grade
urgency for a maintenance schedule.

The assessment never sets prices. Quantities come from what was measured or
counted; rates come from the operator's own book. That is what makes two
people pricing the same job land on the same number.

## How work is priced
linear feet of gutter with a story multiplier, guard installation quoted
separately

## Records the workspace keeps
- Roofline measurement with linear feet by elevation
- Debris condition photo set per visit
- Downspout and drainage condition record
- Guard product installed with warranty
- Seasonal reminder schedule per property

## Workflows it ships with
- Aerial measure → quote → seasonal visit
- Before/after photo proof at every downspout
- Guard installation upsell from repeat-cleaning history
- Spring and fall campaign to the full customer list

## Modules
- CRM (Contacts, Companies, Deals)
- Calendar & Meetings
- Tasks
- ERP - Work Orders
- Client Portal & Intake
- Invoices
- Payments & Checkout
- Messaging (Email, SMS, Voice)
- Campaign Manager
- XODIAK Chain & Treasury
- Media Library (Audio/Video/Image)
- Opportunity & Signal Scanning

## Integrations wired first
- Google Maps aerial

## The numbers the owner checks
- Linear feet per crew-hour
- Seasonal reminder conversion
- Guard attach rate
- Repeat rate at two years

## Who buys
- Homeowners with mature tree cover
- Property managers with single-family rental portfolios
- Commercial buildings with box gutters and internal drains

## What hurts without it
- Reminders that never go out, so the list decays every year
- Ladder work with no documented safety practice
- Guard installs sold to the wrong customer and warrantied badly

## How the business makes money
- Spring and fall cleaning visits
- Gutter guard supply and installation
- Repair, resealing, and downspout extension work

## What it costs
- The workspace opens free, scaffolded with all 15 modules.
- Premium surfaces unlock individually — monthly, or a 24-hour unlock.
- Credits: $20 for 500 XDK, spendable across any surface. Balance carries.
- Multi-branch and own-domain deployments are quoted per market.

There is no published per-seat subscription tier for this vertical. Any figure
quoted elsewhere as a xSERVICESx monthly price is not ours. Ask.

## Frequently asked
### Is xGUTTERx a separate product from the Biz Dev App?
No. xGUTTERx is the gutter cleaning & protection configuration of the Biz Dev
App — the same platform, the same ledger, the same support, scaffolded with
the 15 modules and 5 record types this trade actually uses. If the business
later adds a second line of work, it does not mean a second subscription; it
means another vertical switched on in the same workspace.

### How does xGUTTERx price a job?
On linear feet of gutter with a story multiplier, guard installation quoted
separately. The basis lives in the workspace rather than in an estimator's
head, so the same job quoted by two people produces the same number. Your own
rates, your own catalogue — the platform supplies the structure and the
arithmetic, never the prices.

### What does it connect to that we already use?
Google Maps aerial, Stripe recurring, Twilio SMS, QuickBooks are wired first,
because those are what a gutter cleaning & protection business is usually
already running. Anything else goes through the xCONNECTx public API catalogue
rather than a custom build.

### What happens to the data we already have?
It comes in. The archive import pipeline takes historical customers, jobs and
invoices and lands them as real records — searchable, reportable, attached to
the right customer — rather than as a folder of PDFs nobody opens. The point
of moving is to keep the last five years, not to start over.

## Built on Biz Dev App
xGUTTERx is one of 74 service verticals on the Biz Dev App — the operating
system for the AI economy. The leading and trailing x are platform brackets:
Cross-Connect Protocol in, Cross-Connect Protocol out. Every vertical shares
one identity, one ledger (XODIAK) and one settlement rail, so a business that
runs two lines of work runs them in one workspace rather than two
subscriptions.
