AI safety training for roofing crews: bilingual new-hire orientation with quizzes and certificates
Porter Roofing Contractors
What they did with AI
Porter Roofing Contractors, a US commercial roofer with crews spread across locations, needed every new hire to get through workplace expectations and jobsite hazards before joining a crew, with proof they finished. Director of Safety Karlo Bernardino put the company's existing safety material into Kwizie, which uses AI to draft questions that workers answer inside the training video, then sets pass scores and issues a certificate on completion. Porter runs parallel English and Spanish programs covering orientation, fall protection, rigging and material handling, hot work, equipment and vehicle operation, HAZCOM and silica awareness. Each completion produces a Porter Roofing-branded certificate with a QR-linked verification record. Kwizie reports 42 training workflows launched and 156 certificates issued across six certificate-enabled programs; figures were provided by the customer to the vendor.

The company has standardized on ServiceTitan and uses AI on top of its data to surface branch shortfalls and recommendations. Separately, it credits standardization and visibility with cutting contract-to-install time from 41 days to under 20 over 18 months.
AI sales coaching for roofing reps: coach every in-home appointment without riding along
Kanga Roof
Kanga Roof, a family-owned residential and commercial roofer in Clinton Township, Michigan (Metro Detroit, founded 2006), has seven residential reps running up to 20 in-home appointments a day, far more than Residential Sales Manager Jim Jewell could listen to. The team records its appointments in Siro, an AI sales coaching platform, and Jewell gets a daily report on who is using it and who is winning; Siro's AI conversation analysis flags specific skill gaps such as price positioning, and reps review their own scorecards. In one case a rep used Siro's Follow-ups feature to find a prospect who had gone quiet and Ask Siro to write a follow-up message, recovering a $14,000 deal. Siro reports that within eight weeks of the relaunch Kanga Roof saw a 2x increase in individual close rate, $2,000+ more revenue per appointment and a 40% net close rate across 70 weekly appointments.

Owner Richie Kleti's team built a custom GPT, tied to historical job data and manufacturer specs, that turns a short voice prompt into an itemized, code-compliant Florida repair estimate. New hires can produce accurate estimates without waiting for senior staff to price every job. The team also uses an AI sales coach in role-play "sales cage match" sessions, where reps are mic'd up and get feedback on tone, objection handling and what to do better.
