# Katalo — Less Phone Tag. More Booked Work.

Katalo is a branded storefront and operations hub for service businesses and local sellers. It gives customers one place to book services, buy products, request quotes, modify recurring orders, and pay online while providers keep jobs, inventory, customer records, and payments organized behind the scenes.

Katalo is built for contractors, electricians, plumbers, pest control companies, lawn care teams, pool service providers, house cleaners, local retailers, makers, pop-up shops, and hybrid businesses that sell both services and products.

## Primary value proposition

Less phone tag. More booked work.

Service businesses lose time to missed calls, voicemail, quote follow-ups, small schedule changes, payment chasing, and recurring service adjustments. Katalo moves more of that work into branded customer self-service flows while keeping providers in control.

## Smart Orders

Smart Orders are Katalo's customer self-service workflow for changes, add-ons, quotes, and recurring work.

Example: one of your monthly pest control customers needs a one-time treatment this month. They open their account, add the treatment, and the price adjusts from $65 to $89 based on your rules. You get a notification that the order was modified and the add-on is confirmed. No phone tag, no missed details, no lost revenue.

Smart Orders support:

- Customer self-service changes.
- One-time add-ons to recurring services.
- Smart quote and pricing rules when prices vary.
- Provider approval for edge cases.
- Seasonal offers and specials.
- Appointment reminders, confirmations, price changes, and follow-ups.
