What does this partnership offer?
Zelli gives Workiz customers a direct line to work that is already priced and ready to book. Pros who join the Zelli network get priority access to new job opportunities in their service areas, faster onboarding and verification, and a path into national accounts, multi-location businesses, property groups, and dealerships that are hard to reach as an independent operator.
Zelli's catalog spans more than 20 service categories. For Workiz customers, the most direct overlap today is in HVAC, locksmith, and garage door work, with additional volume in roofing, painting, flooring, drywall, concrete, fencing, landscaping, junk removal, and water and fire restoration.
Nothing about your day-to-day changes. Jobs that come through Zelli run on the same Workiz scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, and payment tools you already use, so the partnership adds pipeline without adding software. As Zelli opens new markets and territories, Workiz pros in the network get early access to them.
Why Zelli and Workiz partnered?
Both companies were built by people who have run service businesses. Zelli comes from the team behind Sure Lock & Key, a family-run locksmith company founded by four brothers with more than 35 years of combined experience in the trades.
Workiz was founded in 2015 by three partners, two of whom spent over 15 years working as locksmiths in San Diego. Both sides know what an unpriced job costs a contractor in wasted trips and dead leads.
The two fit together cleanly. Zelli solves the front of the job, turning an uncertain lead into a fixed price a customer has already accepted. Workiz runs everything after that, from the moment the job hits the board to the moment the invoice is paid. Together they close the gap between a homeowner deciding to book and a pro getting paid.
“Zelli and Workiz are building a more connected future for service businesses. By combining predictable pricing with best-in-class operations, we’re helping professionals grow with greater efficiency, confidence, and scale.”
Jacob Szender, CEO, Zelli
About Zelli
Zelli is building the pricing layer for the property services market. Instead of the familiar "we will know once we get there" call, customers enter an address and either describe the job or upload a photo, and Zelli returns a personalized estimate in seconds. A short call then confirms the scope and locks in a written fixed price, and that is the number the customer pays when the pro arrives. Zelli's network now includes over 1,000 verified pros and has served more than 40,000 customers, holding a 4.9 out of 5 average rating.
Every pro in the network is background checked, license verified, and held to a flat-rate guarantee, and live operators answer around the clock rather than routing customers to voicemail. The network currently operates across Texas, covering more than 80 cities, and is expanding into new markets and territories.
