Mobile mechanics
Every “car won’t start”, “flat tire”, “check engine light” post in a 20-mile radius. Be the one who shows up before AAA gets dispatched.
Commeta watches every Facebook group and Telegram chat in your city so you don’t have to. Get pinged the moment someone in your area needs exactly what you sell – and reply before anyone else even sees the post.
Sample inbox · what you’ll see every day
In any local Facebook or Telegram group, the business that replies first to a “looking for X” post takes the customer about 70% of the time. The rest split scraps. You can’t refresh five groups every ten minutes. Software can.
No setup calls. No integrations. No Facebook password. Pick your trade, link Telegram once, and watch the inbox fill up.
Beauty, auto repair, home services, healthcare, photography – we’ve mapped the keywords that actually get used in real posts. You get a curated set per niche, ready to go. Want to fine-tune? Add or remove any keyword in seconds.
Paste public Facebook group URLs – the same ones you’d browse manually. Link Telegram once via SMS – we use a shared Commeta app, just like Telegram Desktop. No password, no permissions you don’t already have.
Every group, every chat, all day. Each post is checked against your keyword set with smart matching that handles plurals, synonyms, slang and multilingual posts. Noise gets filtered; real intent gets through.
The instant a match appears, it lands in your dashboard with the original post link, the author’s public profile, and a one-click jump to reply. Email and push notifications optional. Average time from post to ping: under 90 seconds.

Hair, lashes, nails, makeup, massage. Last-minute weddings, prom, rush-hour blowouts – the people willing to pay double are the ones who’re desperate. Find them first.
Boarders during travel season. Walkers in new neighborhoods. Emergency vets at 2am. Dog grooming the day before a flight. The volume is there if you can see it.
Roof leak. Fence down. Basement flood. AC out in July. Furnace dead in January. These aren’t shoppers comparing prices – they’re people who’ll book the first credible response.
Photographers, videographers, MUAs, florists, DJs. Whether the wedding is in six weeks or six hours, the booking goes to whoever replies first with a portfolio link.
Wifi setup. Laptop slow. Office IT. Bookkeeping help. The local Facebook groups are full of people asking “does anyone know a…” – and you’re that someone.
Stories from the first cohort of pilot businesses. Different trades, different cities, same realization.
“My mornings used to start with thirty minutes of Facebook scrolling. Now I open the Commeta inbox and there are four jobs already waiting. Booked $620 in same-day grooms last Saturday alone.”
“A bride posted at 6:14 AM that her artist had cancelled. Wedding at noon. I saw the lead at 6:14 AM. Replied first. Charged a rush fee. Saved her wedding. That single notification paid for a year of Commeta.”
“Half my new customers used to come from referrals. Now half come from people complaining about their current mechanic online. Commeta literally turns competitors’ bad reviews into my appointments.”
“Twenty-four-seven service means staying alert for emergencies. Commeta replaced refreshing eight community chats every hour. My response time went from twenty minutes to under sixty seconds. Bookings doubled in six weeks.”
“Last-minute photographer posts get fifty replies in ten minutes. Whoever’s first wins. Commeta puts me first, every time. Three weddings booked this month from leads my colleagues never saw.”
“I’m picky about clients. Reading every group post used to take an hour every morning. Now I only see leads matching ‘wifi setup’, ‘computer slow’, ‘office IT’. Five minutes a day. Two new projects a week.”
No subscription. No minimum. No surprise bills. Top up your wallet when you want, spend it as you scan, and stop whenever.
Two longer reads from businesses where the numbers tell most of the story.
Five years freelancing as a mobile hairdresser. Single mom of two. Same routine every week – chase referrals, post on my own Facebook page, hope someone DMs. On a good week, four or five clients. On a slow one, two.
A wedding photographer in our local moms group mentioned Commeta. I almost didn’t try it – I’d been burned by lead-gen tools before, the kind that send you “leads” who already booked someone else two days ago.
Day four was when it clicked. A woman posted in Charlotte Mom Life: “Anyone do same-day blowouts? Wedding tonight, my hairdresser cancelled 😭”. I saw the ping in 47 seconds. Drove there. Booked the job for $180, plus a $50 tip. She’s now my regular and three of her bridesmaids found me through her.
Today I’m fully booked Tuesday through Saturday, charging more than I used to for off-peak slots, and I haven’t refreshed Facebook for clients in months. Commeta costs me something like $30 a month. I’ve never had to think about whether it’s worth it.
When Roman’s father retired in 2024, we took over the family electrical business – 23 years of brand recognition in Tampa, no real online presence to speak of. We tried Google Ads for two months. We spent $1,800 and got three leads, all tire-kickers.
The breakthrough sounded too simple to work: just see every “anyone know an electrician” post in our service area, in real time, before the people running their own ads even saw it.
The first lead came in at 3:14 AM through a private Tampa neighborhood Telegram chat – power flickering at a small office, owner panicking about losing servers. Roman drove out, fixed a loose neutral in 40 minutes, charged the after-hours rate. $620 invoice. They’ve referred us three more clients since.
Instead of fighting bigger competitors on Google Ads bids, we just get there before they do. We added two trucks this year. Liza handles dispatch full-time now. Roman’s dad was emotional when he visited last month and saw how much had changed. He’d been the one running it for 23 years on word of mouth.
Yes, fully legal. Commeta only reads public posts – the same ones you’d see scrolling those groups manually. We don’t touch private DMs, private profiles, password-protected content, or anything you don’t already have permission to see.
No. Facebook is monitored through Apify’s official integration. You give us a list of public group URLs, we read them. Your password never enters the picture – we don’t even have a field to enter it.
You link your own Telegram once via SMS verification, just like adding it to a new device. We use a shared Commeta app ID (the same way Telegram Desktop is one app for millions of users), so you don’t need to register anything on my.telegram.org. Your session is encrypted at rest with AES, and you can disconnect anytime – or revoke from Telegram Settings > Devices.
If your city has even one active local Facebook group with regular posts, Commeta earns its keep. Smaller markets often have less competition for replies, so being first is even more valuable. Our pilot users in cities under 100k report the same conversion rates as those in metros.
Telegram is real-time – typically under 30 seconds from post to ping. Facebook scans run continuously and surface matches within 60 to 180 seconds. Either way, you’re in the first wave of replies, every time.
You only pay for what we actually scan. Quiet week means a tiny bill. Your wallet stays full until the leads come. The $1 welcome credit is enough to test your full setup before spending a dollar.
No contracts, no subscription, no “cancellation”. It’s a prepaid wallet – if you stop topping up, the service simply stops scanning. Any remaining balance stays in your account until you use it or close the account.
The platform is live in dozens of cities and processes thousands of posts a day. The honest catch: Commeta works best when your niche has real social-media activity in your area. If you sell something nobody discusses on Facebook or in local chats, no tool will manufacture demand. For every other local service business, the math is straightforward and the leads start arriving in the first week.
Join thousands of local businesses already winning leads with Commeta. Set up takes 60 seconds. First booking usually lands the same week.
