Furnace died overnight, need an HVAC company in Denver that can come this week
House is freezing with kids at home. Willing to pay for someone reliable who can actually show up fast.
For home services & contractors
'Need a reliable HVAC company in [city]' and 'who did your kitchen remodel?' get posted in local groups daily. IntentHunter surfaces and scores these so you reach homeowners while they're still deciding.
Why this matters
Local community recommendations carry more weight than a search ad. The 'who should I call?' thread is where the job is really decided.
Pay-per-lead platforms send the same homeowner to four contractors at once. A public post is one warm conversation, not a bidding war.
Referrals are unpredictable. Watching public intent turns word of mouth into a channel you can actually monitor and act on.
What you get
Track your service area and trades, from HVAC to roofing to remodeling. Posts asking for that work are scored against your business so the strongest surface first.
Signals are classified by intent and urgency, so an emergency 'furnace died, need someone this week' outranks someone planning a project for next year.
Each signal links to the original thread so you can read the full context before reaching out. IntentHunter never posts for you.
Run separate projects for each market or service line, each with its own keywords and inbox, within your plan's limits.
How it works
List the services you offer and the cities or neighborhoods you cover.
Local communities and social posts are scanned and scored against your trades and the intent signals that precede a hire.
Open the source, read the request, and decide whether to offer help, quote, or pass.
FAQ
Create a project, choose the sources your plan supports, and review scored signals as scans run.
