ServiceM8 automation, less admin for tradies
ServiceM8 automation for small Australian trade and service businesses that want quotes-to-jobs, accounting handoffs, booking reminders and customer follow-up to run without manual effort. We connect the supported ServiceM8 events to Xero or MYOB, customer messages, smart forms and the operational steps around each job.
The operating problem
The tradie admin that follows every job
Leads are returned late, bookings are confirmed individually and completed jobs are re-entered into the accounting system before anyone can invoice.
ServiceM8 can be the job record while automation handles the predictable handoffs around it. We first clean up the trigger, categories and permissions, then add only the workflows the team can support.

Data and control
Your customer and job data, connected safely
We use the supported ServiceM8 API rather than shared logins or screen scraping. We limit access to what's needed, and if something goes wrong it goes straight to a named person.
Your qualified people still make the call on invoice review and high value jobs. For the accounting side, see Xero automation or MYOB automation; for wider data controls, see data loss prevention.
Clients
What clients say about the way we work
VibeZero reviewed BuildScore end to end before our public launch. What impressed us most was the rigour: a clear scope of work up front, tightly controlled access that they wound back the moment the job was done, and a written report so precise that our own independent verification confirmed every finding, line for line. They didn't just point at problems. Every issue came with a practical fix, sequenced so we could ship safely, and they handed over their testing tools so the value outlasted the engagement. Professional, responsive and security-first at every step. We'd recommend Josh and the VibeZero team to any founder who wants confidence in what they're shipping.
Josh and the VibeZero team turned a mess of ideas into a working product faster than I thought possible. They actually listened to what we needed, didn't overcomplicate things, and delivered something our team could use straight away. Genuinely one of the best tech experiences I've had as a business owner.
