TradeOps handles the full job lifecycle — AI-built estimates, signed proposals, automated invoices, and live QuickBooks sync — so you stop chasing paperwork and start running jobs.
Start free — no credit cardDescribe the job — electrical rough-in, bathroom reno, duct replacement — and TradeOps generates a line-item estimate with parts, labor, markup, and applicable taxes. No more starting from a blank spreadsheet.
Turn any estimate into a branded proposal with your logo, terms, and payment schedule. Clients sign directly in their browser — no app required, no printing. You get notified the moment they sign.
TradeOps supports retainage schedules, progress billing, deposit invoices, and holdback releases — the billing structures that construction and renovation actually use. Not the generic invoice templates built for freelancers.
Clients log in to see their project status, review and sign proposals, pay invoices, and message you — without emailing back and forth. Fewer calls. Fewer "what's the status" texts. More trust.
Every client has a full history: estimates sent, proposals signed, invoices paid, messages exchanged, and notes from your crew. When a lead calls back six months later, you see everything in 10 seconds.
Log materials, subcontractor invoices, fuel, and equipment costs against each job. See actual vs. estimated costs in real time. Stop guessing whether you made money on a job — know it before you invoice.
Build automations triggered by job status, proposal views, payment receipts, or time delays. Send a follow-up when a quote hasn't been opened, a thank-you when a job closes, or an invoice reminder sequence — all without lifting a finger.
TradeOps is built around QuickBooks. Every invoice, payment, expense, and client record flows to QuickBooks automatically. Your accountant gets clean books. You skip hours of data entry every month.
Built specifically for trade businesses — not repurposed project management software with a price tag to match.
