# xLOCKx

> xLOCKx is the locksmith & access control operating system on the Biz Dev
> App: a complete business workspace — not a scheduling app and not a CRM —
> scaffolded with 16 modules, 5 record types and 4 named workflows that a
> locksmith & access control business actually runs on. Work is priced on
> service call plus labor by task, with master key systems and access
> control quoted as projects.

## What it is for
Emergency response at three in the morning, master key systems in the
daylight.

The buyer is an owner or operator of a locksmith & access control business who
is currently running the work across a calendar, a phone, a notebook and a
separate invoicing tool. xLOCKx 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
Technical & Installation — Licensed, permitted, inspected. A site assessment gates the quote and the
quote gates the install.

## What the platform assesses
Photo identification of lock and hardware type pulls the right keyway, pinning
chart, and parts before dispatch.

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

quoted as projects

## Frequently asked
### Is xLOCKx a separate product from the Biz Dev App?
No. xLOCKx is the locksmith & access control configuration of the Biz Dev App
— the same platform, the same ledger, the same support, scaffolded with the 16
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 xLOCKx price a job?
On service call plus labor by task, with master key systems and access control
quoted as projects. 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?
Hardware distributors, Access control manufacturers, Property management
systems, Stripe are wired first, because those are what a locksmith & access
control 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
xLOCKx 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.
