Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Airship provides proposal and field-sales software for residential home services contractors, with a focus on HVAC, plumbing and electrical trades. The product lets technicians and salespeople assemble professional proposals that include multiple equipment options, accurate pricing, incentives, rebates and customer financing, intended to be presented to homeowners during an in-home visit.

The platform positions itself as a sales layer rather than a field-service management system: while most trades software addresses scheduling, dispatch and billing, Airship concentrates on the selling moment and on standardizing how each representative presents and prices work. Capabilities described by the company include dynamic multi-option presentations, AI-assisted system recommendations, a propensity scoring engine that predicts future demand and system replacement opportunities, automated upsells, AHRI matching, customizable branding, and pricebook controls that enforce company standards across reps and locations. Management-facing features include real-time visibility into what each seller is presenting and closing, and pipeline tracking of proposals presented, shared and sold.

Business model

Airship sells software to residential home services contracting businesses, delivered as a configurable sales platform that integrates with the customer's existing CRM or field-service system rather than replacing it.

Traction

The company states that leading HVAC, plumbing and electrical companies using the product report at least 20-40% more closed jobs and higher ticket sizes. Named customer and advisor references include Tim Flynn of Winters Home Services and Jim Cosmas of Polytechnix Services Consulting.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market

Market position

Airship operates in the home services software market as a sales and proposal tool complementary to field-service management platforms such as ServiceTitan.

Airship differentiates from field-service platforms centered on scheduling, dispatch and billing by focusing on the in-home sales process, and from a deployment standpoint by integrating with existing systems such as ServiceTitan instead of requiring replacement of incumbent software.

Technology

The platform generates dynamic proposal presentations with multiple priced options, uses proprietary algorithms and AI-assisted search to recommend appropriate equipment systems, and runs a propensity scoring engine that predicts future demand and system replacement opportunities. It handles AHRI matching, surfaces government, utility, retailer and manufacturer rebates, and displays real monthly costs using a contractor's live financing plans with links into financing applications. Airship reads and writes system details to existing software including ServiceTitan and other CRMs, so it can be deployed alongside incumbent tools.

Go-to-market

The company markets through its website with a scheduled product demonstration (described as a 30-minute walkthrough) as the primary conversion path, supported by customer testimonials from contractors and industry consultants.

Residential home services contractors, particularly HVAC, plumbing and electrical companies, including multi-location operations with field sales teams.
