About Tim Tesluck
Tim Tesluck is the CEO and co-founder of Mr. Task, an AI-powered field service management app for local contractors. His Crunchbase bio says he spun Mr. Task out of Field Complete, the company he co-founded in 2020. Other sources date Field Complete earlier: Crunchbase lists him as COO there from August 2018, and Mr. Task says it was established in 2019. He co-founded Field Complete with Roman Rusev. Crunchbase lists Mr. Task's headquarters as Sandy Springs, Georgia, while Tim is listed in San Francisco.
He describes himself as a second-time founder and former software engineer. According to a TheOrg profile, his earlier work includes a consulting engineer role at Magic Software Inc. from 2015 and co-founding Zen Euro Inc, where he served from 2016 to 2018. The same profile says he was a board member at Blast Sourcing, a tech incubator. His personal site says more than 3,000 contractors run on software he built.
Tim is also co-founder and General Partner of R10K Capital, a residential value-add fund in metro Atlanta. R10K's site says it renovates and flips distressed homes in the Southeast. Mr. Task's site says the fund underwrites and renovates entirely on Mr. Task. R10K is run with Roman Rusev, who is also a Mr. Task co-founder.
Tim's own site and his Crunchbase bio say he is an angel investor in 10+ startups, alongside Y Combinator, Craft Ventures and Foundation Capital. His Crunchbase investor profile counts 11 investments in 11 portfolio companies, with no lead investments and no exits.
The record that can be dated is limited. Crunchbase shows him investing in Jumpstart's seed round, announced on August 25, 2020, alongside Y Combinator. He also appears among the investors in Equi's Series A. Investor databases also list Alcove, Teleport and Mate academy among his past investments. They do not give dates, and we have not confirmed those entries with the companies.
He has also taken part in the founder community as a mentor at the Techstars Startup Weekend San Francisco AI event in June 2024. He advises founders from first scale through exit.
We could not find a publicly documented AI-specific angel investment by Tim. His AI work is as an operator. Mr. Task is classed on Crunchbase under agentic AI and software. Its site describes an AI back office layered on top of scheduling, estimates, invoicing and payments for trades such as plumbing, HVAC and electrical work.
His public view on AI in the trades is practical. In a Best of Best Review profile he is quoted as saying "AI won't replace the tradespeople, but it will replace the hold music." Founders building AI products for small, non-desk businesses are the group where his direct experience is clearest.
Crunchbase lists Tim as an individual or angel investor with a seed investor stage. His own operating focus is software for contractors and small service businesses. He has also built a residential real estate fund on top of that software.
Investor databases list a wide spread of markets for him, including payments, enterprise software, scheduling, construction, fintech and marketplaces. Those tags are generated by the databases, so treat them as a rough guide only. Equi is based in New York, so his investments are not limited to California or Georgia.
Tim has not published a check size or a formal thesis. Founders who want to pitch him should lead with a clear fit to small-business, field service or operations software, and should not assume a standard check range.
