THE MARKET

The locksmith cluster averages 73,174 monthly volume with $4.14 average CPC across 50 keywords. Search intent is mixed but real: 9 commercial keywords and autocomplete terms like "locksmith dispatcher jobs" and "locksmith dispatcher" show an operational workflow, not just consumer browsing.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

"Is it cheaper to call a locksmith or dealer?","How much does a locksmith cost per hour?","How much do locksmiths charge to come out?"

THE GAP

Broad field-service tools like Housecall Pro and Jobber are built for general trades, not emergency, location-based locksmith work. The wedge is speed: answer the call, assign the nearest tech, and keep the customer updated without bouncing between phone, notes, and spreadsheets.

THE BUILD

Build a lightweight dispatch CRM with lead capture, quote approval, ETA texts, and technician routing by location and skill. Start with solo locksmiths and small mobile fleets that care about call conversion more than full back-office complexity.

WEEKEND MVP

A mobile web app that takes a job request, assigns a tech, and sends an ETA text.
