Job tracking software built for how your crews actually work

We build job tracking that connects the office whiteboard, the foreman’s texts, and the invoice—so everyone sees the same job status.

Jobber and ServiceTitan work for many trades. You are reading this because yours does not—too many workarounds, per-seat costs for people who only need a schedule, or job data that still lives in a sheet beside the app.

Diagnose My Workflow

What breaks today

The pain we hear on almost every intake

Schedule changes that never reach the crew

Office updates a board; field teams run on yesterday’s group text.

Job details trapped in photos and messages

Completion proof and change notes disappear in camera rolls and SMS threads.

Invoicing delayed because job status is unclear

Billing waits until someone confirms the job finished—usually by phone tag.

What we build

Focused deliverables—not a vague retainer

Daily schedule views for office and field

Crew assignments, addresses, scope notes, and status updates from the phone.

Job timeline with photos and notes

Document what happened on site for disputes, warranty, and billing.

Status triggers for invoicing and customer updates

Mark complete, request review, or flag punch-list items without a separate tool.

How we work

One workflow, one milestone, expand from proof

01

Map dispatch to done to paid

We follow one job type end-to-end with the people who run it.

02

Launch with one crew or one job type

Prove adoption before rolling out to every trade you run.

03

Integrate QuickBooks or your billing workflow

Job completion feeds invoice drafts when that is where time is lost.

Jobber and ServiceTitan are strong defaults for many contractors. Custom job tracking pays off when you are already paying for SaaS plus a spreadsheet—and field teams still do not trust the schedule.

Investment

What this costs

What does custom job tracking software cost?

Dispatch, status, and mobile views for one crew type often starts between $2k–$20k. Full platforms with quoting, CRM, and QBO sync typically phase between $20k–$75k.

Cutting two hours of daily phone tag between office and field—or billing jobs a week sooner—often pays back a modest build within the first busy season.

We start with the schedule and status pain that costs you today. You are not buying a ServiceTitan clone on day one.

Questions

Straight answers

Those platforms fit standard field service workflows. Custom job tracking wins when your crew model, billing rules, or integrations need more than configuration—and you are paying for seats nobody uses.

We use mobile web or lightweight apps depending on what your crews will tolerate. Simplicity beats features nobody opens.

Yes. Job tracking usually integrates with QBO rather than replacing accounting.

We support multi-phase jobs, change orders, and milestone billing—not just same-day service tickets.

A focused dispatch-and-status tool often ships in 6–12 weeks for one workflow.
