Job management software

ServiceM8 and Tradify are good. Until your business isn’t standard.

If one of the big job management apps fits how you work, buy it and don’t look back. This page is for when it nearly fits, and your crew keeps a spreadsheet or a paper form running beside it for the part it can’t do.

Sound familiar?

Now building: An iPad quoting app for Happy Plumbing, a Canberra small business. Quote Pilot is already built for one-person businesses.

What it could look like

Fill the gap, keep the rest

Build the one piece your job app can’t do, and leave everything it does well alone.

Or something smaller

For a small crew, a simple tool built for your jobs can be all you need.

No per-seat creep

Software you own doesn’t charge more every time you hire.

What people ask first.

Is Tradify better than ServiceM8?

Plenty of tradies trial both, and either is good for a standard business. If you’re keeping a spreadsheet beside it, the problem isn’t which app. It’s the step neither one does, and that step is what I build.

Should I just switch to a different job app?

Maybe. If one fits, switching is cheaper than custom. Tell me what doesn’t fit now, and I’ll say plainly if another product would sort it.

What does it cost?

It depends on the job, so there’s no price list. First we talk through how you work and where it hurts. That’s a conversation, not a sales pitch. Then you get a quote that lists the cost and exactly what’s included, and nothing is built until you approve it.

Is my problem too small?

Probably not. A five minute job someone redoes every week used to cost more to fix than to put up with. AI has lowered the cost of building good software, and I still design, check and test every part of it. Now leaving the problem alone is usually the expensive option.

Will my team actually use it?

Most of what I’ve built is used by church volunteers who get no training at all. If a tool hasn’t paid off in the first two minutes, nobody opens it again, so that’s the bar.

What happens after it’s handed over?

If something needs fixing or changing, email me. I’ll look at it, tell you what it’ll take, and start once you’ve approved the quote.

Who owns it?

You do. Your data and the code belong to your business, so you’re never stuck with me. If it’s a tool several businesses share, there’s a monthly fee instead, and we’ll agree an arrangement that works for both of us before anything starts.

Have a problem like this?

Let’s have a chat. It goes straight to me, and I’ll reply by email.
