ndtv.comProbook announced it raised $40 million on June 23, 2026. The round consisted of a $34 million Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz and a $6 million seed round led by Sequoia Capital, which also joined the Series A. The company operates an AI platform that handles dispatch for home service businesses such as plumbing, HVAC, and electrical firms.
It serves customers across hundreds of locations nationwide, including TurnPoint Services, Master Trades Group, Del-Air, Peterman Brothers, and Sila Services. George Eliadis, 24, CEO and co-founder, started the company after experiencing dispatch issues while pressure washing homes in upstate New York.
He later worked inside TR Miller, a $40 million HVAC, plumbing, and electrical shop in Illinois that became Probook's first customer.
"Dispatch is the hardest problem in home services," Eliadis stated. Chad Peterman, CEO of Peterman Brothers, said the platform allowed the company to centralize dispatch across 11 markets and 200 technicians without adding overhead. Summers Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, which runs 14 locations and 260 technicians on the system, booked 2,542 jobs in its first month with zero human intervention.
Del-Air, an eight-location operation in Florida, uses Probook across its full stack. The other founders are Ben Cervantez and Lewis Zhang.
