One job, start to paid
Everything hangs off the job. Plan it, quote it, schedule it, do the work, invoice it. Nothing falls through the cracks between five different apps.
- 01
Plan it
44% marginRough the job out before the client sees a price. Materials and labour section by section, your cost against your sell, so you know the margin before you commit to a number.
- 02
Quote it
Quote acceptedOne click turns the plan into the quote — each section becomes a line, client prices only. When the client accepts it becomes the job's contract. One price, locked in.
- 03
Schedule it
Thu 8:00 amDrop the work on the calendar and put names on it. The crew knows where to be without a single group chat.
- 04
Track it
6.5 hrs loggedHours and materials land on the job as the work happens. Costs on one side, billable on the other, nothing lost in a glovebox.
- +
Scope grew mid-job? Raise a variation
Variation 1 · +$1,980Price the extra work properly and bill it alongside your claims. The original contract stays untouched, so there is no argument at the end about what was included.
- 05
Invoice it
Claim 2 of 4 sentBill a progress claim now and the rest as you go, or the whole lot at once. The numbers are already on the job, so nothing gets missed.
Get paid
Record the payment and the job squares itself away. Outstanding money is always one glance away on the dashboard.
The planner
Price the job before the client sees a number
The planner is your costing sheet. Build the job up section by section with your cost against your sell, watch the margin as you go, then turn the whole thing into the quote in one click.

Quote
Sent to clientOne tidy line per section. Your costs and margins never leave the planner.
Still linked. Change the plan and the quote's lines rebuild to match — no retyping.
The moment the client accepts, the price locks.
Sections, not spreadsheets
Break the job into its parts — switchboard, circuits, fit-off — each with its own materials, labour and margin.
Two sets of numbers
Every item carries what it costs you and what you charge. You see the profit on every section; the client never does.
One click to quote
Each section becomes a line on the quote, and edits to the plan flow through until the client accepts.
Job financials
Every job shows you where the money is
Open the job and the whole picture is there. What the contract is worth, what you have billed, what has been paid and what the work is costing you. No spreadsheet on the side doing the real maths.
Contract, variations, claims and payments reconciled on the job, live.
Costs from timesheets and receipts sit right next to what you are billing.
Spot a job going sideways while you can still do something about it.

Meet Nova
BetaTell it what happened. It does the paperwork.
Nova is the offsider in your pocket. Say the job out loud and the admin gets done while you drive to the next one. It's still in beta, so give its work a quick once-over before it goes out.
Draft a quote from a description
"Quote the Hendersons for a switchboard upgrade, around $4,200." The draft lands on the job, priced and ready to tidy up.
Turn your notes into an invoice
"Invoice Harbourview for June, same as last month." Done before you are out of the driveway.
Find anything, fast
"What is still unpaid on the Rozelle job?" A straight answer with the numbers, not a report to dig through.
Everything Nova creates lands on your jobs like anything else. Check it, change it, send it. You stay in charge.
