What this connects to.

The schedule, in your calendar

Every visit on the plan can appear beside your own days in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar or Outlook. Copy the address below, paste it in once, and the calendar keeps itself current — a service day that moves next month moves in your calendar too, with nothing to re-import.

Visits nobody has agreed to yet arrive marked tentative, so a proposal never lands in your week looking like a commitment.

If you’re the company doing the work, you get the same address for the opposite side of it: every visit your business is on, across every community you’re contracted with, in one calendar — whatever mix of time zones those communities keep.

A request form on your own site

Run a service company? Two lines of HTML put a proposal request form on your own website. Somebody reading your services page asks you for a proposal without leaving it, and the request arrives in your dashboard addressed to your company alone.

<div data-vendorfp-proposal-form data-key="vrfp_embed_your_key_here"><a href="https://hoacrew.com/embed/w/vrfp_embed_your_key_here">Request a proposal</a></div>
<script src="https://hoacrew.com/embed/v1.js" async></script>

Each website builder gets its own page below: the three steps for that builder, and the exact menu item you are looking for.

• WordPressGoes in a Custom HTML block.
• SquarespaceGoes in a Code block.
• WixGoes in a button, or Custom Code.
• WebflowGoes in a Code embed element.
• ShopifyGoes in a Custom Liquid section.
• A plain HTML siteGoes in anywhere inside the body.
• React or Next.jsGoes in a component.
• The security modelWhat the key can and cannot do, what is stored, and where the edges are. The page to forward to whoever asks.
• The form is not showing upThe one failure with no error message, its usual cause, and the two-minute fix.

One of those two lines is a <script> tag, which means it is somebody else’s code running on your website. There is a whole guide on what that code can reach, what it records and where the edges are, and it is written to be forwarded to whoever asks.

The API

If you have somebody who writes software (in-house, or the firm that keeps your systems talking to each other), they can read your own records straight out of the platform. A key is issued to you, you choose which of the areas below it opens, and it opens no others.

{
  "data": {
    "id": "a1b2c3d4-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
    "name": "Willow Creek",

      ]
    },

  }
}

API access is switched on per account rather than being on by default, because a key that reads your records is not a thing to hand out by accident. The ask lives in your dashboard under Settings, on the same page the keys will appear on once it is open — tell us what you want to read and somebody reads the request.

Files for your books

Pick a period, pick a format, download it. Every one of these opens in the package it names without a third-party account, a connector to authorize or a subscription in between — the file is yours and the import is the one your accounting package already has.

Record type,Date,Due date,Document number,Billed by,PO number,Status,Service,Sales tax,"Amount (charged on an Invoice row, paid on a Payment row)",Stored document total,Variance,Sales tax detail,Currency

Every one of these lives in your dashboard under Settings.
