Locksmith Software
When someone is locked out at 2 AM, seconds matter. VortechPro routes the closest Platinum tech first, then Gold, then Silver — live GPS on the map, Specialist flags for safes and access control, and card payment that closes the call at the door.
routing — not a CRM portal.
Booked rekeys can wait in a quoting tool. After-hours residential lockouts and car openings need Uber-style tiers: best locksmith first, closest GPS, specialist when the hardware is not a simple pin tumbler.
a response plan.
Group chats stall while the customer stands in the rain. Wrong tech. No map. “Invoice later” after the door is open.
WhatsApp / group chat fails
Lockout pings pile up in a noisy thread. Someone already left for another call. The customer waits while three techs debate who is closer — or nobody answers.
Jobs go to the wrong tech
A residential lockout hits the safe specialist. An access-control job hits the auto opener. Without tiers and Specialist flags, every ping looks the same.
No live GPS on the map
You guess who is closest instead of seeing it. After-hours car openings and hotel lockouts reward proximity — not whoever is staring at their phone.
Payment chase after the run
Cash-only or “invoice later” leaves money on the curb. Charge the card on the phone, attach photo proof, send an SMS receipt — close it at the door.
Closest tech. Fastest accept. After-hours ready.
When a lockout hits, VortechPro pings your Platinum techs first with a short exclusive window — about 30 seconds — then falls back to Gold and Silver so coverage never dies. Live GPS keeps the nearest available locksmith in view for residential lockouts, car openings, and hotel calls.
- Uber-style Platinum / Gold / Silver tiered routing
- ~30-second exclusive window for your best techs
- Live GPS map — assign by proximity, not guesswork
- Loud mobile alerts with distance + accept / call / navigate
Immediate lockouts and booked rekeys on one board.
Run 2 AM emergencies and next-week commercial rekeys from the same platform. Dispatch now or schedule any day and time. Office and field stay aligned with job-tied chat — not a buried group thread.
- Immediate dispatch + scheduled jobs
- Tiered routing on every outbound lead
- Office-to-tech chat tied to the job
- Local jobs stay local as you scale cities
Photos, notes, and proof before you leave the door.
Emergency customers need a clean trail. Attach photos of the cylinder, vehicle, or door. Add field notes for the office. Send an SMS receipt so the call closes with documentation — not a “what did we do?” text later.
- Job photo documentation on every call
- Field notes visible to office and tech
- SMS receipt to the customer
- Job record ready for disputes or insurance asks
VortechPro keeps the focus on dispatch speed and field proof — photos and notes that travel with the job — so residential, auto, and commercial crews leave the same clean record.
- Before/after photos on lockouts and rekeys
- Notes for key codes, hardware, or vehicle details
- Receipt via SMS when the card clears
Stripe on the phone. No terminal pitch.
Techs charge the customer card in the VortechPro app via Stripe — right on their phone. Funds land in your own Stripe account. No orphan reader workflow. Pair payment with photo proof and an SMS receipt so emergency calls close at the door.
- In-field card charge via Stripe on the phone
- Money to your Stripe account — we never hold it
- SMS receipt + photo proof on the same job
- Less “pay me later” chase after lockouts
Locksmith work often ends on a driveway or hallway. Getting paid there — on the device the tech already carries — is the point. Soft trial CTAs below if you want to see the flow.
