Overview

About Pipeline

Pipeline is an innovative tool designed specifically for home service companies, enabling them to identify anonymous traffic visiting their websites. Unlike traditional lead generation methods that rely on form fills, Pipeline captures essential visitor information such as names, addresses, and emails without requiring any form submission. This groundbreaking approach allows businesses to significantly increase their lead pool, converting an average of 40% of website visitors into actionable leads. With Pipeline, companies can seamlessly integrate their lead data with existing CRMs, facilitating automated communication strategies including emails, calls, postcards, and even door knocking. By turning anonymous visitors into qualified leads, Pipeline empowers contractors to maximize their marketing investments and improve their overall conversion rates.

About Playwriter

AI agents cannot browse the web properly. They either have no browser access, or they get a fresh Chrome with no logins, no extensions, and instant bot detection. Playwriter gives them your actual browser session instead. One Chrome extension, full automation API, everything you are already logged into. Includes accessibility snapshots (5-20KB instead of 100KB+ screenshots), a debugger with breakpoints, live code editing, network interception, and video recording. Works with any MCP client: Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and more. Open source, MIT licensed.
