How do you diagnose it?

HauGen.

An AI diagnostic companion that gives plumbing technicians a confidence-scored second opinion in the field — in seconds, not service calls.

The gap

AI diagnostic tools have transformed clinical medicine — supporting physicians through complex differentials, catching what fatigued humans miss, documenting the reasoning trail. The skilled trades have none of that, despite comparable stakes and a worsening labor shortage.

A generation of veteran technicians who carry decades of diagnostic judgment is retiring. There is no system to capture, transfer, or scale that knowledge. The people coming up behind them are left to figure it out alone, in the field, under time pressure — exactly where mistakes are most expensive.

Plumbing and HVAC technicians expected to retire in the next decade, taking irreplaceable field judgment with them — with no structured succession for that expertise.

What it does

01
Branching diagnostic intelligence

A tech describes or photographs a symptom and HauGen walks them through a structured diagnostic path — not a generic chatbot guess, but a reasoned sequence matched to the equipment type and failure pattern.

02
Confidence-scored second opinions

When the AI isn't certain — or the issue is safety-critical — the case routes to a credentialed expert review layer before a part gets ordered or a repair gets made. The confidence score isn't hidden; the tech sees it.

03
Built on real trade data

Trained on defect taxonomies and inspection standards used across the industry, manufacturer technical bulletins, and continuously improving from every job that runs through the platform.

04
Works inside your existing tools

Designed to integrate with the field service platforms companies already use. No rip-and-replace. HauGen is the intelligence layer that makes what you already have measurably better.

Why HauGen, why now

I
The trades have been overlooked.AI investment has poured into software, finance, and healthcare — industries already rich with structured data. The skilled trades, where diagnostic judgment lives entirely in people's heads, have been treated as too hard. That is the gap HauGen is built for.
II
This is not a chatbot bolted onto a scheduling tool.HauGen is purpose-built diagnostic reasoning — the way clinical decision support exists in medicine, not as a feature, but as the product. The architecture is different because the problem requires it.
III
The data and the network compound over time.Every job run through the platform makes the system more accurate. The credentialed reviewer network — the expert layer that catches what the AI flags — is a structural advantage that takes real time and real relationships to replicate.
IV
The urgency is real, not manufactured.The labor shortage and the retirement wave are not projections — they are already in motion. Companies that embed structured diagnostic intelligence now will carry a durable operating advantage over those that wait.
