About

Good work should be easy to sell and easy to bill.

Most small contractors run on a phone, a notebook and a spreadsheet that only makes sense to one person. It works right up until it doesn't — a lead goes cold, two crews land on one driveway, an invoice sits unsent for three weeks.

TradePilot is one system for the whole cycle: lead, estimate, approval, job, invoice, payment, review, follow-up. Built for businesses with one to twenty people, priced for them too.

What we believe

Four rules we build against.

The truck is the office

Every screen is usable one-handed, in daylight, with work gloves half off. If it needs a desk, it's designed wrong.

Plain language only

No CRM jargon, no pipeline velocity dashboards. Leads, estimates, jobs, invoices — the words you already use.

AI that recommends, never decides

The assistant drafts estimates and messages and shows its reasoning. Nothing leaves the app without you approving it.

Your data stays yours

Export customers, estimates, jobs, invoices and payments at any time. No hostage-taking on the way out.

How the work flows

Nine steps, one place, no re-typing.

  1. 01

    Lead

    Capture the request with photos, address and preferred date.

  2. 02

    Estimate

    Build it in minutes — or let the AI draft the line items.

  3. 03

    Approval

    Customer reviews, signs and pays a deposit online.

  4. 04

    Scheduled job

    Assign a crew, set the arrival window, send the reminder.

  5. 05

    Completed job

    Checklist, photos, materials and hours captured on site.

  6. 06

    Invoice

    Generated from the job with actual time and materials.

  7. 07

    Payment

    Record cash, check, card or online payment against the balance.

  8. 08

    Review

    Send the review request while the work is still fresh.

  9. 09

    Follow-up

    Reminder fires when they're due for the next service.

We build this with contractors.
