Founder, SignalRoute

Plumbing-business owner turned SaaS founder. Building the simplest review tool small businesses actually trust.

I started a plumbing company a few years ago. Two things became obvious fast.

First — getting reviews is harder than anyone tells you. Customers who had a great visit don't think to leave one. The ones who left frustrated do.

Second, and the bigger one: in a service business, one negative review can undo months of work. It costs more than the job itself. And most of those reviews come from problems I would have happily fixed if I'd known.

So I built SignalRoute. One link for every review platform you care about. Happy customers go to Google in a tap. Unhappy ones land in your inbox — where you can call, apologize, fix it, and turn what would have been a public scar into a five-star moment.
