Where we are different
Seven decisions that are not about features
Everything in this category quotes and invoices. These are the choices that decide what it is like to actually run your business on it.
It works with no signal at all
Not "you can look at your schedule offline". You can write a quote, add photos, log hours and finish a job in a basement with no bars, and it all queues on the phone and syncs itself when you come back up. Sending the same job twice still only creates one job, so a flaky connection never doubles your paperwork.
Every change is stamped with an id generated on your phone. The server accepts each id once and once only.
One price for the whole crew
Ten people are included in the Crew plan. Not ten seats you buy, ten people. Most job management software charges per user, which means the software gets more expensive at exactly the moment you take someone on — the moment you can least afford it and can least afford to be thinking about software.
Hiring your third person changes nothing about your bill.
A free plan, not a countdown
Five invoices a month, one person, every feature. It does not expire, and nothing is held back to make you upgrade. If you do a job a week it may be all you ever need, and we would rather have you on the free plan telling people about us than gone in fourteen days.
No credit card is asked for at any point on the free plan.
English, Spanish and Russian
Set the language once for the business and it changes every screen for everybody on the account — and the quotes and invoices your customers receive, not only the buttons your crew press. A crew whose office manager works in English and whose apprentice reads Spanish is a normal crew, and software should not make that awkward.
One setting for the account. Customer documents follow it too.
Your tax, correct, in your money
GST at 10 or 15 per cent, US state and county sales tax, Canadian GST, HST and the provincial taxes on top. Several rates on one invoice. Invoice numbers that run in sequence with no gaps, which most tax authorities require and a surprising amount of software gets wrong.
Set it once when you sign up. Every document totals correctly after that.
It runs on the phone you already own
There is nothing to install from an app store. Open it in the browser, add it to your home screen, and it behaves like an app — on any phone, any tablet, and the same account on a computer in the evening. No "sorry, that feature is iPhone only".
One codebase, three layouts: phone, tablet, desktop.
Your data stays yours
Export everything, whenever you like, in a format your accountant can open. No contract, no notice period, no exit fee, and no phone call required to cancel. Software that is hard to leave is software that has stopped trying to be worth staying for.
Export is a button, not a support ticket.
Honestly
When you should buy something else
A comparison page where one product wins every row is an advertisement. These are the cases where we are the wrong tool, and you will find out in week three if we do not say so now.
Fleets of twenty-plus technicians
Dispatch boards, live vehicle tracking and route optimisation are a different product. Look at the bigger field-service platforms.
Full accounting
This is not a general ledger and does not try to be. It produces clean invoices and payments and exports them to whatever your bookkeeper already uses.
Deep inventory and purchasing
Materials on a quote, yes. Multi-warehouse stock control and purchase orders against suppliers, no.
Heavy customisation
There is no form builder and no workflow designer. The app is opinionated about how a job runs, which is what makes it quick to set up and quick to use.
Switching from something else
Start on the free plan while you are still paying for the old one — there is no card to enter and nothing to cancel if you change your mind. Run your next few jobs through both. If the new one is not obviously less work by the end of the second week, stay where you are.
When you do switch, bring your client list across and leave the history where it is. Historic invoices belong to the year they were issued in; copying them into a new system creates two versions of the truth at exactly the moment your accountant needs one. Export the old system to a file, keep it with your records, and start clean.
If you would rather talk it through with a person before moving anything, book twenty minutes. We will tell you if it is a bad idea.
