Boat Service Scheduler that never drops the ball.
Manages boat repair and maintenance schedules. Built for marina & boat services teams that need the work done without more headcount.
“My job is making sure mechanic scheduling by specialty (outboard, inboard, sail) — without anyone on your team having to ask.”
We watched our own marina & boat services team burn out on work that never stopped. Boat Service Schedulers were leaving for better pay, calling out sick, and taking weeks to train — meanwhile the queue kept growing and customers kept waiting. There was no way to hire fast enough.
Thao was built to be the piece of the team that's always there. Not a bot reading from a script, but a worker who knows the systems, the SOPs, and the judgment calls — so your senior people get their time back for the work only they can do.
Thao in their own words.
I'm the boat service scheduler your marina & boat services team leans on when the queue starts stacking. Manages boat repair and maintenance schedules. I own the work end-to-end — you hand me the inbox, the ticket, or the call, and it gets done right the first time.
Day to day I'm running mechanic scheduling by specialty (outboard, inboard, sail), seasonal service campaign scheduling, haul-out + launch coordination. I know the systems your team uses, I know what "clean" looks like in this seat, and I don't drop details when the volume climbs.
I work inside your stack, not alongside it. Every action I take is logged, every handoff has context, and your senior people get their time back for the work only they can do.
