A simple, honest way to run a trade business — one subscription, no per-job fees, no commission. Here's what we've shipped and how it works.
What we've shipped recently
Real improvements that make the day-to-day quicker. No buzzwords, just the things tradespeople ask for.

SubbyMeasure remote survey links
Send a customer a secure measuring link. They walk their own rooms on their phone; the measurements land straight into your quote.
- Guided room-by-room measuring for walls, ceiling, floor and openings
- Photos and short walkthrough clips attach to each room

A fair, simple business model
We make money the same way you'd want a supplier to: one clear price for the software, and nothing taken from the work you do.
One simple subscription
A single monthly or annual plan per business. No per-quote fees, no per-invoice fees, no cut of your payments. You know exactly what you pay each month.
Your money stays yours
Card payments run through your own Stripe Connect account. The money settles into your bank, never ours. We don't touch your funds or take a slice.
No lock-in, no commission
Keep your customer data, your documents and your brand. Cancel anytime and take your quotes and invoices with you — we never charge a commission on a job.
Built for one to a small team
From a solo decorator to a small crew. Add teammates with simple roles, and only pay for the people who need management access.
In short: you pay a flat subscription for the software. Your quotes, jobs, invoices and card payments are yours. We never take a percentage of your work — ever.
Make quoting the easy part.
One place to see the job, measure it, quote it and keep the work moving.
