Meet FieldMentor — The AI Co-Pilot Built for HVAC Technicians
FieldMentor combines Gemini AI vision, a comprehensive knowledge base, and live peer help into one app. Here's a walkthrough of what it can do on a real service call.
Picture this: You’re on a commercial rooftop, 95°F, staring at a 20-year-old Carrier unit you’ve never seen before. The building manager wants it back online in an hour. You open FieldMentor.
What Happens Next
1. AI Session starts in 3 taps. The moment you tap “Start Session,” FieldMentor activates your camera and microphone and connects to our Gemini 2.5 Pro agent. No loading screens, no logins, no friction.
2. Point your camera at the data plate. The AI reads the model number instantly — even if the label is dirty or faded — and silently cross-references it against our built-in database of service manuals from Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, and Goodman.
3. Describe what you’re seeing. Say “The unit is short-cycling and flashing code 33.” The AI hears you, looks at what your camera sees, and responds with the most likely causes. In this case: a dirty filter, a blocked condensate drain, or a tripped limit switch.
4. Follow the guided repair steps. FieldMentor walks you through each step with voice overlay — so your hands stay free. It tells you which pressure to check, which terminals to test with your multimeter, and what spec to compare against.
5. Stuck? Get live help. One tap opens a LiveKit peer support session. A senior technician can see your screen and your camera feed and guide you through anything the AI couldn’t resolve.
6. Close the job with a full report. When you’re done, FieldMentor auto-generates a job summary — what the fault was, how it was fixed, what parts were used, and the EPA refrigerant log (if applicable). Your company admin gets it instantly.
Who It’s Built For
- First-year apprentices who need guidance without a mentor standing over them
- Experienced technicians who want to slash time-to-fix on unfamiliar equipment
- Service companies that want visibility into what their techs are diagnosing in the field
