About Us

Enterprise Standards for Trade Businesses

AlgorithMx is a Metro Detroit tech company built on 25 years of Fortune 500 engineering experience in cloud architecture, custom software, data engineering, and AI, serving exactly one market: trade and home service businesses.

Our Story

For more than 25 years, we've designed and operated the systems that power large enterprises: cloud platforms, business applications, automation, and data infrastructure that organizations depend on every day. In those environments, reliability isn't optional. Every minute of downtime, inefficiency, or manual work has a measurable cost.

Over the years, we noticed something surprising: many trade businesses face the same operational challenges as large enterprises, but without access to the same level of technology expertise. Missed calls become lost revenue. Manual processes consume valuable time. Disconnected systems create unnecessary work and limit growth.

We founded our company to change that.

Our mission is simple: bring enterprise-level technology, automation, and AI to the businesses that keep our communities running. Whether you're in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, construction, or another skilled trade, we help you streamline operations, reduce administrative overhead, improve customer experience, and create a foundation for growth.

We're not just here to fix computers. We're here to help your business operate more efficiently, serve customers better, and take advantage of the same technologies that larger companies use to stay competitive.

What 25 Years of Enterprise Tech Means for Your Shop

25

Years of Enterprise Tech

DevOps & Cloud

Minimize Downtime, Maximize Productivity

From cloud infrastructure to backups and disaster recovery, we help ensure your business stays operational and your team stays productive.

Data Engineering

Precision Job Costing

Most contractors don't know which jobs are profitable until year-end. We build dashboards that show exactly how much profit a truck made on a Tuesday.

Solutions Architecture

Seamless Integrations

Office managers waste 10 hours a week on double data entry. We build the bridges so data flows from the truck to the dispatcher to the accountant automatically.

Hybrid Infrastructure

Security for the Shop

A shop server in the warehouse, field crews in the cloud. We bridge both worlds and keep customer data locked down.

AI Infrastructure

24/7 Call Capture

Missed 2 AM emergency calls are lost revenue. We deploy AI phone and SMS agents that answer, quote standard jobs, and book trucks around the clock.

"My water heater burst — is anyone there?"Customer — 2:04 AM

Software Engineering

Custom Tools That Fit

When off-the-shelf software doesn't match how your shop works, we build the missing piece instead of forcing a workaround.
