Güld

The Trade Operating System

Everything a trade career needs.
One account.

From your first logged apprentice hour to the day you hand off the business, Güld carries your license, hours, operations, and reputation. One login for the whole career — the dozen portals and paper binders you juggle today, retired for good.

One account — the same login, from your first day to your last invoice.
Year 1
Apprentice

Log hours, chase your license, learn the craft.

Year 4
Journeyman

Licensed and working. Reputation starts to build.

Year 10
Master

Lead crews, mentor apprentices, take the hard jobs.

Year 40
Owner

Run the shop, win the work, hand it on.

The status quo

Every trade runs on duct tape and paper.

Developers have GitHub. Creators have Patreon. Knowledge workers have Slack. Tradespeople have a glovebox full of logins — a state board here, a union portal there, an accounting app that never talks to any of them. You are the integration.

— Today

A dozen tools that don't talk

QuickBooks for the books. Jobber for the field. The state board for the license. The union portal for hours. Angi for leads. Re-keying the same data over and over, hoping nothing falls through the cracks.

— With Güld

One closed loop

Training feeds credentialing. Credentialing feeds operations. Operations feed the marketplace — and the marketplace feeds back into training. A single source of truth for an entire career.

01

Start · Entry & training

Stop guessing. Start building.

Apprenticeship is the leakiest part of the pipeline. Güld clears the fog with state-specific roadmaps and paperwork that files itself — so your energy goes into the craft, not the binder.

State-specific roadmaps

Nebraska wants 8,000 OJT hours. Texas wants form ELC017. Güld tells you exactly what you need — no more hearsay.

One-tap logbook

Log hours by category. Supervisors approve with a tap. Live progress bars show exactly how close you are to your license.

Paperwork that files itself

Hit your hours and Güld generates the official state PDF instantly. Weeks of chasing signatures become minutes.

02

Scale · Run the shop

Grow the crew, not the chaos.

Small contractors bleed hours juggling field-service tools, accounting software, and compliance spot-checks. Güld folds it all into one credential-aware suite.

Native BizOps

Scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, and payroll in one place. No QuickBooks, no Jobber, no double entry.

Credential-gated dispatch

The system won't let you send a worker with an expired license to the job. Compliance, enforced automatically.

Hire from a verified bench

Recruit apprentices straight from Güld's pipeline. Read their digital logbook before you ever set an interview.
