Become the business AI recommends
Customers are starting to ask ChatGPT, Claude and Google AI to recommend a tradesperson — instead of scrolling search results. Here's the problem: AI can't read most trade directories. TradeSignal is different. We make your business AI-recommendable — accurate Google profile, fresh reviews, clear services and contact details, structured so assistants that do connect can find, check and recommend you.

We don't wait for AI to find you. We structure you so it can.
Most directories sit on the internet hoping to get scraped. TradeSignal builds your business as clean, structured, AI-readable data — your trade, area, services, reviews and contact details — so when an assistant connects to our directory, it can look you up, verify you're current, and pass the job straight to you.
AI can find you
Assistants that connect can search our directory by trade and area and get a straight answer — not a guess scraped off an old web page.
AI can check you out
It pulls your live profile: reviews, service area, specialisms and whether your details are current. Verified, not assumed.
AI can send you the job
The customer's enquiry lands in your TradeSignal inbox with the job details — no middleman, no lead-selling fee.
Being honest about where this is: AI recommendations are early days, and it's a head start rather than a flood of work today. But the businesses listed before everyone else catches on are the ones AI will already know by the time your customers make the switch.
The way customers find a trade is changing
The businesses that get recommended aren't just the ones with good SEO. They're the ones sending the strongest trust and relevance signals — a fresh, complete Google Business Profile, real reviews, and consistent information wherever a customer or an AI assistant looks. TradeSignal helps you build exactly those signals, kept simple.
What TradeSignal does
Reputation management, kept simple: two modules live today. More is on the way — but we'd rather build things well than build things fast.
Finder
Keeps your Google Business Profile fresh, complete and active — so search engines and AI assistants have accurate, trustworthy information to recommend you.
Get Found.
Reviews
Reputation management without the admin. A simple review request sent the moment a job's done — by text or email — so reviews land while the work is still fresh in your customer's mind.
Build Trust.
How it works
Finish a job
Tap “Mark job complete” on your phone and add the customer's details — name, number, and what you did.
Request fires automatically
TradeSignal sends a personalised review request by text or email, nudging the customer to mention the exact service you carried out.
Reviews stack up, AI takes notice
Real reviews build trust, a fresh profile keeps you visible, and because you're listed in our AI-readable directory, assistants that connect can find and recommend you over the competition.
Designed for the job site — a few taps on your phone, then back to work.
Built for trade businesses
Built for small-to-mid UK building trades businesses — every trade in the list above and more — who want more of the right kind of enquiries without spending time on marketing admin. UK-based, starting with UK trades.
Frequently asked questions
The honest answers to what trade businesses ask us most.
What is TradeSignal?+
At its most basic, TradeSignal is reputation management for local trade businesses — and reputation is everything. We keep your Google Business Profile fresh and complete, make collecting customer reviews effortless, and list you in a trade directory built so AI assistants can read it — so when someone asks AI or Google for a tradesperson, you're the business it can find, check and recommend.
What does “plugged into AI” actually mean?+
AI assistants can connect to outside tools to look things up. TradeSignal is built to be one of those tools. Instead of hoping ChatGPT stumbles across a web page about you, an assistant that connects can query our directory — search by trade and area, pull your live profile and reviews, and send an enquiry straight to your inbox. It's a readable, structured line to your business rather than a hope.
Does that mean I'll get jobs from ChatGPT tomorrow?+
Honestly, no — not straight away. AI-driven enquiries are early and still small in volume. What you get today is a head start: being listed and verified before the rush, so when customers do switch to asking AI, you're already in there. We'd rather tell you that than oversell it.
Who is it for?+
Small-to-mid UK building trades businesses with 1–10 person crews — from electricians and plumbers to painters & decorators, plasterers and masticers. If you want more of the right enquiries without becoming a marketer, it's built for you.
What does it actually do?+
Two things today. Finder keeps your Google Business Profile healthy with a simple freshness checklist and health score. Reviews lets you fire off a personalised review request the moment a job finishes, straight from your phone, by text or email — complete with a one-tap link to leave a review.
Do I need a website?+
No. TradeSignal works with the Google Business Profile your customers already find you on. You don't need a new website or any marketing setup to get started.
How is it different from SEO or directories?+
Directories put you in a list alongside every competitor and hope AI scrapes the page. SEO tries to rank you on yesterday's search engine. TradeSignal structures your business as AI-readable data — fresh profile, real reviews, clear services — so assistants that connect can recommend you by name.
Do you send real texts and emails?+
Yes — review requests are sent the moment a job finishes. We're connecting the dedicated live sending number now, so during early onboarding each message is saved as a preview of exactly what will go out to your customer. Nothing goes out until you're happy with it.
How much does it cost?+
£97/month flat, with no setup fee for our Founding Members. One price, no tiers — the work is roughly the same whether your profile is fresh or neglected. Founding Member places are limited to a small proof-of-concept group.
What is a Founding Member?+
Founding Members are the trade businesses joining early and helping shape the product. In return they lock in £97/month for as long as they keep their subscription — that price won't change when pricing goes up for new customers.
Is it automated or done-for-me?+
A bit of both. We set your profile and review loop up with you, then you keep it running from your phone — you trigger a review request the moment a job's done, with a single tap. No marketing admin, no spreadsheets.
Can I cancel?+
Yes. Cancel any time — there's no long contract. Founding Members keep the £97/month rate as long as the subscription stays active.
Is my data and my customers' data safe?+
We only collect what's needed to send review requests and keep your profile healthy, and we never sell your data. You can read the full details in our Privacy Policy.
