Painting Scheduler that never drops the ball.
Keeps painting crews booked and projects flowing. Built for painting & wall coverings teams that need the work done without more headcount.
“My job is making sure crew scheduling by availability + skill — without anyone on your team having to ask.”
We watched our own painting & wall coverings team burn out on work that never stopped. Painting 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.
Mateo 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.
Mateo in their own words.
I'm the painting scheduler your painting & wall coverings team leans on when the queue starts stacking. Keeps painting crews booked and projects flowing. 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 crew scheduling by availability + skill, multi-day project sequencing, client access coordination (keys, gate codes). 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.
