Management tools with AI. For everybody.

We are Igor and Rana, the founders of Glue: two siblings who studied business together at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Over a decade ago, life moved us apart—Igor went to Berlin to work in software, while Rana moved to Fort Lauderdale to run a cleaning company called NiceNClean. Glue finally brought us back together.

Small and growing service businesses usually have to choose between software that is too complex and expensive, or too basic to run a real company—often forcing owners to patch together multiple different tools just to cover their whole operation. To fix that, we built one unified platform to handle scheduling, field teams, customers, billing, and payments, and opened it up to every service business.

AI also has a frustrating problem at work: you have to copy-paste your data into a chat and re-explain your business in every single prompt. Glue connects AI directly to the full picture of your company, so the right context is already there when you ask.

In the sections below, you will find more details about how Glue works.

The system

Six modules. One database.

Everything shares the same records, so a job, its invoice, its photos and its payment are always connected.

  • Jobs & recurrence

    Jobs repeat by any rule: every few weeks or months, chosen weekdays, the second Tuesday. Glue generates them about a month ahead.

  • Field team

    Workers run their day from the phone: On my way, Start, Finish, up to 30 photos per job, days off. Supervisors rate finished jobs from 1 to 5 stars.

  • Customer portal

    Customers log in to see their jobs, calendar, places and bills, accept or reject estimates, and pay.

  • Billing

    Every job gets an invoice. Bills group invoices per customer, go out as PDFs, and overdue reminders follow on their own.

  • Payments

    Stripe Connect pays straight to your bank account. Saved cards, tips and refunds are built in.

  • Email & texts

    Send from your own address, read your inboxes inside Glue, and text customers when the team is on the way or done.

Make it yours

Your brand
Your company name, logo, colour and slogan on your account and on the bills your customers receive.
Your email address
Email goes out from your own address. Per message type, choose whether it comes from the company or from a manager.
Your next feature
Need something the AI Tools can't do yet? The request goes straight to the Glue team.

Who sees what

Owner & managers
Full access to the company. Only the owner can add or remove managers.
Workers
Only the jobs they are assigned to, their photos and their days off.
Supervisors
Workers who review jobs instead of doing them. They also see orders and contacts.
Customers
Read-only access to their own jobs, calendar, places and bills, plus paying by card.
The Brain

An AI agent with real access. And real limits.

The Brain runs on Claude, by Anthropic. It works through dozens of tools that read and write the same data you see: customers, jobs, workers, bills, payments, email and routes.

  • Every change asks firstCreating, editing or deleting anything waits for your OK. Unanswered requests expire after 5 minutes.
  • Money and messages always askCharging a card, sending an email or a text, or sending a bill asks every time, even inside a plan you approved.
  • Plans for bigger tasksFor work with many steps, it proposes a plan. You approve it once instead of step by step.
  • Routes in the backgroundIt plans the day's routes and saves them as a proposal. No job moves until you say so.
Customization

Describe it. Glue automates it.

AI Tools turn a request in plain words into an automation that runs on its own. No code, no developer.

1

Describe the task

Write it in chat, like 'every Monday, list the bills that are more than a week late'.

In chat · Plain words
2

Glue builds a recipe

The request becomes a recipe: a list of steps that runs the same way every time. AI is used only where a step needs judgment.

Steps · Not code
3

It runs, you approve

Run it with a button, or every hour, day, week or month. Any change to your data waits for a manager's approval.

Hourly to monthly · You approve
Security

Your data, locked by company.

What protects your account, your records, your customers' payments and your visit to this website.

Your account

Sessions
You stay signed in with a signed token in a cookie that scripts can't read, sent only over HTTPS and never to other sites. Sessions also live on the server, so signing out ends them there too.
Passwords
Hashed with Argon2. Never stored as typed.
Links by email
Magic links, welcome links and password resets expire and work only once.
Attack protection
CSRF tokens, rate limits and login throttling on the API. Sign-up uses a proof-of-work human check (ALTCHA) instead of a captcha that follows you around.

Your records

Separated by company
The server adds your company's id to every database query. One company can't read another's data.
Encrypted secrets
Email passwords and other secrets are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.
Backups
The database is backed up every hour. Hourly copies are kept for three days, then one per day.
AI answers
Questions to the Brain go to Anthropic's API to be answered. They are not used to train their models.
Leave any time
Delete your account from the app. Records with history are anonymized.

Your customers' payments

Card numbers never touch Glue
Cards are typed into Stripe's own form and stored by Stripe. Glue keeps only a reference to charge a saved card.
Refunds
A refund is confirmed through a one-time link sent by email, never from the screen alone.

This website

HTTPS everywhere
Every page and the API run over HTTPS, and browsers are told to never open Glue without it.
Cookies
By default, only the cookies needed to keep you signed in. No tracking cookies.
Visit counting
Google Analytics runs only on the public pages and only after you accept it. Change your answer any time with 'Cookie settings' in the footer.
Privacy policy
Everything we collect and why, in plain words. The link is in the footer.

Common questions

Questions owners ask us.

What is Glue?+

Glue is one app to run a small service company: jobs and schedule, field teams, a customer portal, billing and card payments. It comes with an AI assistant, the Brain, that already knows your company.

What kind of business is Glue for?+

Any company that sends people to do work at a customer's place: cleaning, landscaping, pool care, maintenance, home care and similar. It started inside NiceNClean, a cleaning company in South Florida, and is built for the US first.

How much does Glue cost?+

Nothing to start and no monthly fee. Glue keeps about 1% of each customer payment made through the app, and you pay for the AI you use. New companies get $10 of AI on us.

Do I have to explain my business to the AI?+

No. The Brain lives inside Glue, so it already sees your jobs, workers, customers and bills. You ask a question and it answers from your real data.

Can the AI change things without me?+

No. Every change waits for your OK, and charging a card, sending a bill or messaging a customer asks every single time.

Can Glue fit the way my company works?+

Yes. You set your brand, your email address and who sees what. AI Tools turns a request in plain words into an automation, and anything it can't do yet goes straight to the Glue team.

How do my customers pay?+

By card, through Stripe. Payments go straight to your bank account, and you see who paid and who didn't in Glue.

Does it work on a phone?+

Yes, in any browser today. Android and iPhone apps are coming soon, so your team can run their day from their phones.

Is my data safe?+

Each company's data is kept apart on the server, passwords are hashed, stored secrets are encrypted, and the database is backed up every hour. Card numbers never touch Glue.

Who uses Glue today?+

NiceNClean, a cleaning company in South Florida. As of October 2026 it has run 900+ jobs on Glue since September 2025, now about 80 a month, across 89 properties. Its Turno bookings arrive in Glue on their own, so Rana no longer has to open Turno, and she estimates Glue saves her about 30 hours a week.

Who made Glue?+

Igor and Rana, two siblings who studied business at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Rana runs NiceNClean in Fort Lauderdale; Igor works in software in Berlin. Glue Tech LLC is based in South Florida.
