About Hank
Hank helps local service businesses — plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, cleaners, landscapers, and more — win more work without lifting a finger. Most owners are too busy on the job to sit online watching for new customers. Hank does it for them.
We monitor local posts and community groups for people asking for the kind of work you do, in the area you serve. When we spot a real, fresh opportunity, we text you the details and a ready-to-go reply — so you can respond first and win the job.
Hank is built and operated by Stormlight Ventures LLC. We're a small U.S. team focused on getting local pros more of the work they're great at. Questions? Email us at hi@stormlightventures.io.
