Show Customers the Amazing Work While It's Happening with CompanyCam

Your Photos Are Already Taken. Now Put Them to Work. 

Every month, we like to highlight one of the partners that makes GTR better for home services pros like you. This month, that partner is CompanyCam — and if your crew is already taking job-site photos, this integration might be the most useful thing you add to your workflow all year.

TL;DR:

What Is CompanyCam?

CompanyCam is a photo-first app made for field service businesses — roofers, HVAC techs, restoration crews, landscapers, painters, solar installers, and more. It is used by over 220,000 field service professionals. Your crew takes photos on-site, CompanyCam organizes them by job automatically, and everyone — field and office — sees the same up-to-date pictures.

Every photo gets a time stamp, a GPS tag, and a project label — automatically. No texting photos around. No digging through a camera roll. Just clean, organized documentation for every job.

CompanyCam also plugs into the tools you already use. It connects with 150+ integrations, including AccuLynx, Jobber, JobNimbus, ServiceTitan, and — of course — GTR.

“The integration between CompanyCam and GTR really helps elevate a lot of our customers and how they're building their business,” Kevin Cairns (Sr. Integrations Manager). “Our team builds these integrations in ways that make sense for our customers to help save time, money, or energy. So being able to re-use progress photos or before and after pictures to win new business feels like a win for both sides.”

Why Showing Your Work Matters More Than You Think

Here is something most home services businesses do not think about: the stretch of time between when a customer signs and when the job is done is the riskiest part of the whole relationship.

The customer paid you. Work is happening. But unless someone calls them — which almost never happens consistently — they have no idea what is going on. They wonder if anyone showed up. They wonder if it looks okay. They start to feel nervous.

According to CompanyCam's research, that silence is exactly why good contractors lose referrals. Not because the work was bad, but because the customer felt left in the dark.

A nervous customer does not refer you. A customer who felt informed and respected the whole way through? That is your next referral source.

1. Your Customers Can Watch the Job Happen — Without Calling Your Office

When you connect CompanyCam to GTR, tagged project photos flow straight into the Project Status feature inside your branded app. Every time your crew tags a photo in CompanyCam — a before shot, a progress update, a finished install — it pops up in the app. Your customer gets a push notification. They open it, see the update, and feel good about their decision to hire you.

No one on your team has to do anything extra. The update happens automatically.

Why this matters for your referral program: Customers who feel kept in the loop during the job are far more likely to refer before it is even finished. Visibility builds trust. Trust builds referrals. It really is that simple.

2. Your Crew Controls What Customers See — With One Simple Tag

Not every job-site photo should go to a customer. CompanyCam's tagging system gives your crew a simple way to mark which photos should flow into GTR. Tags like "before," "after," "marketing," or "final" tell the integration what to share. Everything else — working shots, damage documentation, crew photos — stays internal.

Your team adds a tag in CompanyCam. That is it. GTR handles the rest.

Why this matters for your operations: Your crew does not need to manage two apps, send update texts, or remember to call anyone. One tag per photo. Done.

3. Before and After Photos Do What Words Cannot

Before and after photos are one of the most powerful tools you have. They show the problem. They show the fix. They tell the whole story without anyone writing a single word. CompanyCam's before and after tool makes it easy to create side-by-side shots right from the field — and when those shots flow into GTR through Project Status, your customer sees the full transformation as it happens.

Customers who see strong before-and-after documentation are more likely to share it. That's a  before you even ask for it. Just look at how the Restoration Referral System built an entire business around this exact idea.

4. A Partnership That Is Getting Better

GTR and CompanyCam have been integration partners for years. Right now, both teams are doing a full review of the integration workflow to find ways to make the customer experience even smoother.

What this means for you: You are not just getting today's integration. You are backed by two companies that are actively working to make their combined product better for home services businesses.

How It All Works Together

Once the integration is set up, everything runs on its own. Here is the full flow:

1. Your crew takes and tags photos in CompanyCam on the job site.
2. Tagged photos sync automatically into the Project Status feature in your GTR app.
3. Your customer gets a push notification and sees the update inside your branded app.
4. A customer who feels informed and impressed becomes your next referral source.
   

What This Means for Your Business

GTR plus CompanyCam gives home services companies something most of their competitors do not have: a way to make customers feel valued and informed during every stage of the job.

• Your customers stop calling. They can see for themselves what is happening. That alone saves your team hours every week.
• Your crew stays focused. Tagging a photo takes one second. The customer update happens automatically. No extra steps.
• Your referral program feeds itself. The best time to earn a referral is while a customer is actively impressed. CompanyCam creates those moments on every job.
