Free to startA free book with full banking. Add only what you use.
Paid straight to youOnline payments go to your own Stripe account, not ours.
On your phone tooAn app for you, and one for your crew.

From the estimate to the bank, without retyping a thing.

Every piece talks to the next one. A signed estimate becomes the invoice, the payment lands in your books with its fees, and it all counts toward the job.

Estimates & invoices

Get it signed. Get it paid.

Build estimates from your own item list. Clients open them on their phone and sign. One click turns it into an invoice they can pay by card or bank.

  • Client portal for estimates, invoices, photos and messages
  • Payments book themselves, fees and all
  • Email or text it from the app, and see when it was sent

Banking

Know where every dollar is.

Checking, savings, credit cards and cash, side by side. Tick off what has cleared, print checks on your own stock and pay bills from the same screen.

  • Reconcile line by line
  • Check printing with your logo and signature
  • Bills by due date, with a vendor portal for their invoices

Job costing

See what each job really made.

Payments, materials, bills and crew hours all land on their job, so the profit on every job is right there. No spreadsheet at the end of the month.

  • Money in and money spent per job
  • Spending by category
  • What is still owed on each job

Calendar & crew

Your schedule and your crew, in step.

Put the job on the calendar, pick the crew and they get the address and notes by text. Clients get a reminder before you show up. Crew clock in on their own app.

  • Repeating appointments and to-dos
  • Text and email reminders
  • Time sheets by pay week
