About the company

Bizzen is the vertical, voice-powered operating system that empowers home service businesses to grow faster.

The team includes former executives from Kensho (largest AI exit in 2018) and Toast.

Using the latest AI technology, Bizzen serves as the operating system for home service small businesses, streamlining communication, generating estimates, managing invoices, and providing actionable insights about customers and leads. We let business owners focus on their craft while we help them close more deals and get paid faster—all from their phone while on the go.
