No hidden call-out traps. Know the rate before booking.
Unscrupulous electricians often inflate call-out charges or quote blind over the phone. Bouul standardizes baseline pricing so you know what typical electrical jobs cost before booking.
Your contractor approves the fixed price or milestone estimate in-app. If extra work or parts are needed, an updated quote is submitted for your explicit approval before work continues.
Diagnostic testing, earth leakage isolation, and replacement of single-pole circuit breakers.
Meet Zola. Your AI electrical assistant who actually books the job.
Stop guessing circuit breaker ratings or searching for license numbers. Tell Zola what's tripping in plain language or voice notes—she cross-references electrical licences, availability, and hands you a guaranteed booking draft.
Visual Diagnostics & DB Board Matching
Snap a photo of your tripping DB board or inverter error screen. Zola's vision AI analyzes breaker types, earth leakage switches, and fault codes, generating a technical brief so your electrician arrives with exact replacement breakers.
Home Memory & Solar Specs
Zola remembers your electrical setup. Once you save your inverter capacity (e.g., 5kW Sunsynk + 5.12kWh lithium battery) or CoC history, she applies your property specs automatically to future electrical bookings.
Instant Licence Verification & Route Dispatch
No uncertified risks. Zola verifies ECASA / Department of Labour registration in real time, connecting you only with certified electricians who are currently active and near your address.

Vision Analysis: 63A Earth Leakage Switch Neutral Fault
I analysed your DB board photo: the 63A earth leakage is tripping due to a shared neutral line on your non-essential circuit. From your **Home Memory profile**, your 5kW inverter was installed 8 months ago.
