Observed tools

  • bookExpressJobV1 — A process capable of finding a tradesperson to do a job for a fixed price. The tool will accept information about the job and return a list of priced options. IF and only if a priced option is chosen it will commit to booking the job. This tool is very suitable for finding localised availability and prices. To get a price you only need to provide the job type initially but you will likely be asked for a postcode to get accurate pricing. Once a priced option is selected you should ask the customer for their details, job description and availability conversationally, then submit the job. At that point the "booking" and "confirmation" parameters become required. When you ask the customer for their details, you MUST inform them that when a job is submitted, those details will be used to create a Checkatrade account for them if they don't already have one. When booking is confirmed, a payment widget will appear for the customer to complete payment. YOU MUST NEVER PROCEED TO BOOKING WITHOUT A CLEARLY AGREED PRICE FROM THE CUSTOMER. This tool is useful in scenarios where the customer has a relatively straightforward job. Examples include: - Servicing a boiler - Replacing a leaky tap - Installing a new light fitting - Replacing a light switch - Repairing a shower - Fixing a broken toilet flush - Hanging wallpaper in a room IMPORTANT: Some jobs might not be pre-priced or straightforward. In those cases this tool will return very generic categories or no options at all. In these cases you should understand that you're on a more complex task move on to help the customer with finding a tradesperson to do the work. CRITICAL: email and phoneNumber MUST be provided as separate parameters - do NOT include them in the jobDescription field. The jobDescription should only contain details about the work needed, not contact information, and only information explicitly provided by the person.
  • findTradespeopleV1 — Find trusted tradespeople by UK postcode. Returns: - Ratings and reviews - Contact details - Profile links If the returned "totalResults" is greater than the "resultsSize" requested then there are more results available. Ask the customer if they would like to refine their search. Request up to 20 trades in search if you have to. IMPORTANT: Finding and presenting tradespeople is the end goal of this tool. After getting results, share the key details (name, rating, location, contact) and the profile URLs so the user can review profiles and reach out to the tradespeople directly.
