How it works

Lead, quote, job, invoice, paid

Each piece of work moves through the same five steps. Every step uses what the last one already knows, so nobody types a customer’s address twice.

  1. Step 1

    Lead

    A call, text, form or booking becomes a contact and a lead on the board.

  2. Step 2

    Quote

    Sketch and measure on site, price from your book, and the customer signs online.

  3. Step 3

    Job

    The approved quote becomes a job on the calendar with the crew assigned.

  4. Step 4

    Invoice

    Finish the job and send the invoice in one step, with a Pay now button.

  5. Step 5

    Paid

    The payment lands, the invoice marks itself paid, and a review request goes out.

Customers and pipeline

Every lead, quote, job and invoice on one board

The Work board shows each piece of work once, in the stage it has reached: Lead, Qualified, Quoted, Scheduled, In progress, Invoiced, Paid. The totals on top show what is in the pipeline, in production and still owed.

  • Contacts, companies and properties

    Customers, contractors and your own team, with every address, tag, photo, document and the full history in one place.

  • A 7-stage pipeline

    An opportunity becomes a quote, a job, then an invoice. The card moves on its own; nobody re-types anything.

  • Your services, your way

    Painting, fences, decks, remodeling or whatever you sell. Name your service types and filter everything by them.

Quotes

Sketch it, measure it, quote it

Draw the fence line, the deck or the walls on graph paper at the job site. Each measurement sets the quantity of a priced line, so the quote matches the drawing, and the customer approves and signs it online.

  • Sketch and measure

    Lines in linear feet, areas in square feet, and counted markers for posts, gates and fixtures. Works with touch, pen and mouse.

  • Price book with starter prices

    Starter prices for each trade that you edit once, then reuse on every quote.

  • Templates and options

    Quote templates for the jobs you do every week, good/better/best options and optional add-ons the customer can pick.

  • Online approval and e-signature

    The customer reviews the quote, picks options and signs online. The job is ready to schedule the moment they do.

  • Sales tax your way

    Off by default. Turn it on, set your rate, and mark which lines are taxable.

Jobs and scheduling

Crews know where to be

An approved quote becomes a job. Assign the crew, dispatch from the calendar, and let customers book a visit on your own booking page.

  • Jobs, crews and dispatch

    Jobs come straight from approved quotes. Assign crew members, see the week by person and move work around on the calendar.

  • Online booking page

    Your services, your team’s availability and automatic reminders, on a booking page you share on your website and in texts.

  • Google Calendar sync

    Jobs and appointments sync both ways with Google Calendar.

Invoices and payments

Get paid in days, not weeks

Turn a finished job into an invoice in one step. Invoices, deposits and reminders carry a Pay now button for card and bank (ACH) payments, and payments mark the invoice paid on their own.

  • Deposits and Pay now

    Ask for a deposit up front and take card or ACH payments from the invoice email, text or PDF.

  • Branded paperwork

    Your logo and details on quotes, invoices, receipts, emails and booking pages.

  • Nothing slips

    Overdue invoices are flagged on Home, with a one-tap reminder or an automatic follow-up.

Phone, texting and inbox

Your business line, built in

A business phone number with calling and texting, in the same place as your quotes and jobs. Every call, text and email with a customer lands in one shared inbox.

  • Business number and softphone

    Call from your computer or phone on your business number, with ring groups and business hours.

  • Two-way texting and a shared inbox

    Texts and emails with each customer in one thread the whole office can see. Gmail syncs in.

  • Missed-call text-back

    Miss a call and the customer gets a text right away, so the lead doesn’t call the next contractor.

  • AI receptionist

    Answers calls, books jobs into open times, takes messages and saves each call as a new lead.

  • Business number and softphone

  • Two-way texting and a shared inbox

  • Missed-call text-back

Crew app

Built for the phone in the truck

The crew app shows today’s jobs. Crews start and finish work, add notes and photos, and call or text the customer, and it keeps working when the signal drops.

  • Free crew seats

    Crew members never see money, and their seats are free.

  • Push notifications

    New leads, texts and calls reach the right phone straight away.

  • Custom roles and permissionsBuild and Foundry

    Decide exactly who sees and does what.

Do my crews need to download an app?

No app store needed. The crew app runs in any phone browser and installs to the home screen, with push notifications for new jobs, leads, texts and calls. Crew seats are free.

Can customers approve quotes online?

Yes. Customers review the quote, choose any options and e-sign online, and the job is ready to schedule as soon as they do.

Do I have to charge sales tax?

Sales tax is off by default. Turn it on, set your rate, and mark which lines are taxable, so you can tax materials only.

Who can see what?
