You dispatch. Workers claim. Jobs get done.
Post jobs
Create a job with a description, location, time window, and required skills. Publish to your full team or target workers by certification and availability.
Workers claim
Field workers receive a push notification and claim jobs that fit their skills, location, and schedule. No dispatcher manually calling down a list. Or assign a job to someone and they accept or decline.
Coordinate live
Every job has its own chat channel. Share addresses, photos, client notes, and last-minute changes. Workers respond from the field without leaving the app.
Confirm and close
Workers mark jobs complete and submit their actual start and end times. Hoursheets export as CSV for billing and payroll. See your full operation at a glance.
What dispatch teams replace with Zelos
Built for how small dispatch teams actually work
Workers claim — dispatchers don't chase
Post available jobs and let workers self-select. Faster fill times, fewer calls, and workers who chose to be there.
No GPS tracking, no telematics
You don't need vehicle diagnostics to dispatch a plumber. Zelos gives you coordination without the enterprise overhead you don't use.
Free for unlimited workers
Your entire crew joins free. Paid plans unlock volume and advanced features, not more headcount. No per-worker fees.
Launch in a day
No implementation project. No consultant. Create an account, add your crew, post your first job. Most teams are dispatching within an hour.

Guides for small crews choosing dispatch software
Who uses Zelos for service dispatch
Roadside assistance and towing
Dispatch towing calls, lockout assistance, tire changes, and mobile mechanic jobs to the nearest available worker. Self-signup means the first qualified driver claims the call — faster than working down a phone list.
Cleaning and janitorial crews
Push cleaning jobs to crews by zone, building or property type. Running a cleaning company? See cleaning crew dispatch for turnovers, janitorial rounds and client sites.
Property maintenance teams
Dispatch emergency repairs, routine inspections, and preventive maintenance across buildings and properties. Tag workers by trade — plumbing, electrical, HVAC — so only qualified workers see relevant jobs.
HVAC and plumbing services
Send service calls to technicians based on certification and availability. Technicians claim jobs from their phone, receive client details through the task chat, and mark jobs complete. They submit their actual start and end times. Hoursheets export as CSV for billing and payroll.
Transportation and pickup services
Coordinate airport runs, medical transport, corporate shuttles, and package deliveries. Drivers browse available trips and claim what fits their route. No complex routing software needed for straightforward dispatch.
Installation and repair teams
Post equipment installations, customer appointments, and warranty repair jobs. Workers claim assignments matching their expertise and schedule. Task-specific chat keeps client details and technician questions in one thread. Working with independent installers rather than your own staff? See the contractor job app.
What dispatch managers say
"The Zelos functionality is just what we needed to move from a mail based system to platform which will allow us to be more flexible."

"There are a lot options out there that follow an org. structure, but very few options that allow for ad hoc team management on the go. Zelos excels at this."

"Zelos has helped us to make significantly less mistakes with scheduling - both getting the initial distributions of time slots for participation right and getting teachers actually follow through with commitments."

Frequently asked questions
Is Zelos a field service management platform?
Zelos handles the coordination part of field service — dispatching jobs, team messaging, and completion tracking. It doesn't include GPS tracking, route planning, or client-facing portals. If you need simple dispatch without the enterprise complexity, Zelos fits.
Can workers claim jobs from their phone?
Yes. Workers receive push notifications and claim jobs from the mobile app or any browser. No special hardware required.
Can I dispatch by skill or certification?
Yes. Tag workers by certification, vehicle type, language, or any custom attribute. Publish jobs only to qualified workers.
How is Zelos different from fleet management software?
Fleet management tools include GPS tracking, telematics, route planning, and vehicle diagnostics. Zelos focuses on job dispatch, team communication, and completion tracking.
Can I track job completion times?
Yes. Workers mark jobs complete and submit their actual start and end times. Hoursheets export as CSV for billing and payroll.
Is Zelos free?
Yes. Unlimited workers, job posting, messaging, and CSV exports on the free plan. Pro adds unlimited jobs and bulk upload; Enterprise adds API access, webhooks and your own branded app.
Do workers need to download an app?
No. Zelos works in any browser. Native iOS and Android apps are also available.
