About HireOS
HireOS answers the calls and texts a hire desk can't get to. We build it for AV, event and equipment hire companies in New Zealand.
Why we built it
My father runs Accent Productions, a small AV business in Wellington. I've seen what a missed call costs a hire desk: the job goes to whoever picked up. HireOS picks up when the team can't and keeps every call on the job it's about.
