Real KOVALA screens. Lakeview Dental is a made-up customer.

The problem

Stop taping your business together.

Somebody retypes the customer at every handoff. Sales keeps its notes in the CRM, the crew logs hours in a spreadsheet, and the invoice gets built from both by hand.

  • TodayYour project lead calls the customer to ask something they already told sales.

    In KOVALAThe project lead opens the record sales used and reads the kickoff notes.

  • TodayHours sit in a spreadsheet until someone adds them up for the invoice.

    In KOVALAHours are logged to the job, so they're on the record when the invoice is written.

  • TodayA customer calls for an update, and whoever answers digs through email to find one.

    In KOVALAWhoever answers opens the record and sees the stage and the notes from the last call.

  • TodayA job wraps up, and nobody checks it against the estimate until month-end.

    In KOVALAThe estimate and the logged hours sit side by side, and the next estimate shows what jobs like it took.

What’s built

What KOVALA does today.

KOVALA is new. Each item on this list is in the software shown above.

If you need something that isn’t on the list, Tessellaite can build it on the same record and quote it separately.

  • One record per customer, client or patient, with your own stages, fields and names for things.
  • Quotes, tasks, hours, invoices and payments on that record, with as many jobs per customer as you need.
  • Meetings recorded in the browser or uploaded, then transcribed and written up, with every point linked to the moment it was said.
  • Every estimate lined up against what past jobs of the same kind took.
  • A morning list of what needs each person, and an assistant that answers questions from your own records.
  • Moving in from a HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Zoho CRM or monday.com export, or any spreadsheet. HubSpot, Pipedrive, Jira and QuickBooks can also stay connected, with a sync every 15 minutes that we set up and check with you.
  • Web forms that create records, roles and confidential records, and an audit trail nobody can edit after the fact.

Questions

Questions people ask

What will it cost?

A monthly plan and a one-time setup fee. Plans go from winning the work up to running the whole business, so you pay for the one that matches what you need. AI comes with every plan: use the AI built into KOVALA or connect your company's own model, at no extra charge. After the walkthrough, we tell you which plan fits and what setup costs.

What does the setup fee cover?

Fitting the stages, fields and names to how your team works, bringing your customers and open jobs over from the tools you use now, connecting the tools you keep, and training your team on their own records. The fee depends on how much of that your business needs.

What happens after I book a walkthrough?

A person from Tessellaite gets back to you within 24 hours to set up a 30-minute video call. You show us how work moves today, we show you KOVALA set up for work like yours, and afterwards we tell you which plan fits and what setup costs.

Will it work with the tools we already use?

Built in today: bringing your history in from a HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Zoho CRM or monday.com export, or any spreadsheet, and a live connection to HubSpot, Pipedrive, Jira or QuickBooks that syncs every 15 minutes, which we set up and check with you. For anything else, we build the connection for you and quote it separately.

Do we have to replace all our tools at once?

No. Start with the part of the business that hurts most. Tools KOVALA syncs with can stay, and you move each one over when you're ready.

Where will our data live?

In KOVALA's cloud, hosted and updated for you, with each company's records kept apart at the database. Your records stay yours, and an owner can export them to a spreadsheet file whenever they like. If you handle regulated data like CUI or patient records, tell us what your contracts require before any of it goes in.

Can you build something specific to our business?

Yes. When no suite covers it, we build it for you on the same record, like an app for your crew in the field, a connection to a system KOVALA doesn't sync with yet, or a tool only your business needs. It's quoted separately before we start.

What does Tessellaite do?

Tessellaite is the company that builds KOVALA, the software, and sets it up with you. We fit it to how you work, bring your history over, connect your tools and stay on for support. When you need something no suite covers, we build it on the same record. We're based in Mebane, North Carolina.
