For painters
Single-room interiors and exterior re-coats live in the quotable middle ground; whole-house jobs and pre-1978 properties don't. Reeve runs the qualifying conversation, triggers lead-paint disclosure when the home age requires it, and books the on-site walk for everything that needs eyes on the work.
What gets handled
- Estimate scheduling. Reeve answers, asks the right questions (interior or exterior, square footage, room count, build year, color preference), and books the walk-through.
- Lead-paint disclosure trigger. Pre-1978 properties trigger federal EPA RRP rules. Reeve flags the job for your direct attention and never auto-quotes a paint-over without certification verification.
- Routine room quotes. Single-room repaint, cabinet refinish, accent walls — standard jobs at the prices you've set, after walkthrough if needed.
- Weather-window scheduling. Exterior work gets booked into the dry-window forecast (50–90°F, no rain 24h out). Reeve doesn't book exteriors in the wrong week.
- Invoicing and collections. Invoice ships after the job. Past-due follow-ups go out automatically. Payment lands in your Stripe account.
Why this fits painting specifically
Painting is regulation-edge work — the EPA RRP rule turns a routine interior job into a federally regulated one when the paint chips and the house was built before 1978. The qualification conversation is the difference between a clean job and a fine. Reeve runs that conversation consistently and refuses to paint over what shouldn't be painted over.
Reeve doesn't replace the painter. It replaces the estimate- scheduling overhead, the build-year verification, and the color-confirmation-in-writing step you sometimes skip.
What it costs
Starting at $50/month per business, based on usage. Most operators in the closed beta land between $50 and $100. See pricing for the honest details on the first thirty days.
How it earns trust
The first thirty days you review every action Reeve drafts. After thirty days, routine room quotes and walk-through scheduling ship on their own; pre-1978 jobs and full-house exteriors stay with you. The trust is earned per action class, not declared.

Reeve is in private beta with a small number of design partners. Painting is one of the verticals we're prioritizing for the first cohort. Register your interest or write to hello@reeve.tools.
