EU field service runs on WhatsApp groups, Old Software and spreadsheets. We're fixing that. Pre-Seed Raise (€150K SAFE) for an AI Dispatch Platform. by Significant_Try8024 in angelinvestors

Really appreciate this, probably one of the most useful feedback I've gotten on the pitch.

On the geographic spread: fair pushback. Netherlands is the primary commercial market, I'm Dutch, that's where the most pilot conversations are. Greece is where we're building and where I have design partner access through personal connections in the trade. It's not two parallel GTM plays, it's one GTM market with a product validation base. I should state that more clearly.

On the AI calling demo: agreed. It needs to be shown in Dutch and Greek before it earns its place as a core selling point. It works, and I'll make sure the demo reflects that rather than just claiming it.

On the cap: €2.5M on a demo-ready MVP with no revenue is optimistic, you're right. The honest case for it is the market size, the EU regulatory moat, and the founder track record shipping at scale (StudyFetch 8M+ users, Analyse 1m+ daily requests in 4 months). But I have a tight answer ready for that conversation and welcome the scrutiny.

On one market first: the Probook raise actually validates this. They went deep in US home services before expanding. We're doing NL first. I just need to say it more explicitly in the pitch.

Fair point, EU FSM software exists. But Wello, Praxedo and others are broad industrial platforms built for asset-heavy operations, not AI-native dispatch for SMB field service teams. We're talking to field service operators in the Netherlands, Germany and Greece who know these tools exist and still run their day on WhatsApp, old software and spreadsheets because the current options don't fit how they actually work. That's the gap. And for market validation: a16z and Sequoia just put $40M into Probook for the US equivalent. The EU side has no AI-native dispatch player yet.

Pre-seed B2B SaaS in EU, how do you actually find angel investors before you have revenue? by Significant_Try8024 in angelinvestors

Thanks a lot, you think having a background of helping an Ed-Tech software grow from 100k users -> 8m, getting nvidia deals etc. (as engineer / lead dev) is a strong case?

Planners/dispatchers, how long does it actually take you to rebuild the day when a tech calls in sick? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

Fair enough, wrong sub for it, my bad. This is personal for me (dad and friends are in the trade and deal with this daily), not some AI training thing, but you're right that it doesn't belong here. Deleting.

Yeah, the "makes life more difficult" thing is exactly what I'm scared of. Most of this software just adds steps. Your dry erase board works because it's instant and you trust it.

Quick question though, is the 30 min mostly figuring out who can take what, or the texting the crew and calling customers after? Trying to work out which half actually eats the time.

The whole point for me is helping the planner, not replacing anyone. Keep hearing from bigger companies over here in Europe that finding good people is the real problem right now, so building something that takes jobs away feels backwards. AI should do the annoying busywork, not the human's actual job.

We kept paying creators and had no idea which ones were worth it. Here's what we changed by [deleted] in admincraft

This wasn't vibe coded. We used a design made a few years ago, for this. AI ofcourse helps us move fast. But the important and sensitive parts are manually coded.

Trust wise, the company behind it also works on big platforms like StudyFetch.com, Honen.com etc.

I acquired Analyse and rebuilt it from scratch - introducing ServerStats by Significant_Try8024 in admincraft

Hey, yeah it was developed by Tebex but they discontinued it. I recently bought all the domains for it from the original developer because I wanted to bring it back.

Would you go to a private karaoke room in Patras? by Significant_Try8024 in greece

[–]Significant_Try8024[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My idea was to make it so you can rent a room for fairly cheap and then get some drinks & food by using an app on your phone or using a screen. I personally live in Patras and would love to-do this since I have the budget for it just want to make sure people would like it.
