A trusted DFW HVAC operator with no digital wedge.
NewRise Heating & Cooling is a residential and light-commercial HVAC operator across Arlington, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Mansfield, and the surrounding DFW Metroplex. The operations side was healthy — TACLB-licensed, strong field-tech bench, mid-six-figures revenue and growing — but the digital surface was every-DFW-shop generic: a WordPress site, a Google Business Profile, and HouseCall Pro running scheduling and invoicing.
The owner could see the gap. Larger HVAC competitors in the region (and an emerging cohort of "modern HVAC" national rollups) were showing up with branded apps, instant booking, and live tech tracking. NewRise had none of those, and the HouseCall Pro experience pushed customers off-brand at the worst moment in the funnel — checkout.
Three compounding gaps.
1. No app on the App Store. When a homeowner searched "AC repair Arlington" on the App Store, NewRise didn’t exist. Apps drive disproportionate trust in the home-services category — a missing app is a missing trust signal.
2. HouseCall Pro redirect at checkout. Booking and payment lived on HouseCall’s URL and showed HouseCall’s branding. Every successful booking reminded the customer they were buying from "the HouseCall company," not from NewRise.
3. No recurring revenue program. The biggest unlock for an HVAC P&L is a membership product (call it a Comfort Club, a Maintenance Plan, etc.) — recurring billing that smooths revenue and creates a captive book of business. NewRise had no plan at all, and HouseCall’s memberships add-on was an extra line item that still didn’t put NewRise’s name on the customer’s app screen.

Projections, modeled — not promises.
We will not pretend to have 12 months of revenue data on a 14-day-old build. What we will share is the model NewRise and Koydo built together at kickoff — the numbers we’re running against:
- Comfort Club ARR target: $30K MRR / $360K ARR within 12 months at 200 members at $150/yr (industry midpoint). Modeled, not yet booked.
- Review velocity: targeting a 3–5x lift in Google review volume in the first quarter, in line with the Koydo cohort.
- Booking conversion: moving paid-traffic checkout from the HouseCall-branded redirect to the NewRise-branded in-app flow. Lift TBD; baseline being captured now.
All figures above are illustrative projections, not earned revenue. They are the operating targets the team is running against, not historical results. Updated numbers will be published here as they become available.
From the kickoff call.
“The biggest thing was finally getting our name in the App Store. Customers ask if we have an app — now we do. The fact that Koydo could ship the whole stack in two weeks is what made me say yes.”
Quote is illustrative of the pattern we hear at kickoff and is published with the customer's consent. We'll replace with a post-launch quote once 90 days of in-production data is in.
Two weeks, one platform, your brand.
NewRise didn’t need a 12-month transformation program. They needed a branded app, an in-brand checkout, and a recurring-revenue product on the same back-end, shipped fast enough to matter this quarter. That’s what Koydo Service OS Crew does — for HVAC, cleaning, remodeling, and childcare operators across the country.
