Your own app for construction companies

The app for your construction company — two minutes at the gate, and the office knows.

Thursday, 4:30 PM: the crew is gone, the log book is in the job trailer, and the photos of the shell stay on the foreman's phone. Your own app takes the daily log, the hours, the punch items and the material request right on the job site — the office sees it in the same minute.

What the office sees right away0 of 5

rain days this month — waiting on the log

hours on the right job site — waiting on the log

items in the material request — waiting on the log

owner updates a week — waiting on the log

open punch items — waiting on the log

As long as the log is missing, the phone does the work: Did the concrete show up? How far did you get? Who was even out there today?

The app collects the data for your project documentation. Inspections, supervision and any delay notice stay your job — the app hands you the backup for it.

Same job site, same crew — you just get your evening back.

Job site in the late afternoon: the scaffolded shell backlit, the foreman in a safety vest writing in a paper notebook on the hood of the van
Scene: Maple Street, Thursday4:30 PM

The crew is gone, the crane is idle — and today's log still does not exist.

This is exactly where the gap between the job site and the office opens. Two minutes at the gate closes it while the day is still fresh.

A read: from the job site

What an app in a construction company really changes.

A construction company rarely fails at the concrete. It fails at what gets lost between the job site and the office: the hour nobody booked to a job, the defect you cannot prove without a photo, the rain day nobody remembers in October. Your own app changes nothing about the work on site. It only changes where the knowledge about it lands — and when.

from $4,000a full construction app in the store: daily log, hours, punch items, photos

What two minutes at the gate add up to in a year

Let us run the numbers. A clean daily log with the work put in place, the material, the delays and the photos costs about 40 minutes by hand — usually in the evening, usually from memory. In the app it is two: the weather comes from the location, the photos are on the phone anyway, and the crew booked its hours hours ago. That is 38 minutes saved per log. With six running job sites and 220 working days it adds up to roughly 836 hours a year — half an office job, just for paperwork. A little further down you can run the same math with your own numbers.

Said honestly: those hours show up on no invoice. Today they sit in evenings, in Sundays and in logs that never get written at all. The more solid effect is right next to it: 214 hours a week are already on the right job site by Friday instead of being reconstructed from calendars and memory at month's end. And the seven open punch items sit there with a photo, a location and a due date — not spread across three heads and a group chat.

A daily log written on Friday is not documentation. It is a memory.

“My foremen do not type on phones”

The objection is fair, and we hear it in almost every first conversation. A foreman has dirty hands, often gloves on, and thirty years of learning that every new piece of software makes more work first. That is exactly why the log is five lines and none of them is a form: the weather comes in on its own, he takes the photos anyway, and the work and the delay he can dictate. And because service drops out constantly on a job site, the log gets finished offline and uploads itself later.

What helps most in practice is the other side: Rachel in the office does not have to call to find out whether the concrete showed up. Once the foreman notices the questions are drying up, he uses the app on his own. The reverse holds just as hard: if it asks for more than the log book did in the first month, nobody uses it. So we build it to be worked with one hand in the rain — and so that twelve owner updates a week fall out of it instead of being extra work.

Where the app stops — and has to stop

One boundary belongs said out loud: this app replaces neither your inspections nor your supervision, and on its own it is not your contract documentation. It collects the data for it — time, location, weather, photo, quantities — and files it as a clean PDF in your project file. Whether and how a delay gets filed is still your office's call; the four documented rain days this month are the material for that, not a substitute for it. It does not replace your estimating or billing software either: what comes off the job site we hand over there, instead of having it typed a second time.

Two weeks pass until the first version is in the store — and from $4,000 that is not a trial version but a full app under your own name. After that, at first, not much happens. One job site starts, then the second. In our experience it tips the moment the first argument about a date is settled with three photos and a time stamp. Even so, count in months rather than weeks until all six job sites report daily — and plan for one person inside the company who stands behind it.

How many of your job sites report every day — and how many hours land on the right job only at month's end? Tell us, and we will run the math with your numbers.

≈ 836 hours a year that nobody writes up in the evening anymore — time that today sits in evenings and Sundays.

Said honestly: these hours show up on no invoice. Today they sit in evenings, in Sundays and in logs that never get written at all — and those are exactly the ones missing when somebody asks about a date later.

The weather fills itself in, the photos are on my phone anyway, and I dictate the work. I used to write the log up at home in the evening — now it's two minutes at the gate.

Hours finally land on the right job1 month ago

Nobody has to reconstruct who was where at the end of the month anymore — 214 hours are sitting there finished by Friday. What we're still missing is the handoff into our billing; that one is being worked on.

06The road to your app

From an idea to your app in the stores.

1

Tell us about your job sites

A short conversation: how many sites are running, who writes the log today, how the hours reach the office. That is all we need from you.

2

You get a proposal and a fixed price

Concrete and plain: what the app does, which role sees what, what it costs — in writing.

3

We build, you watch

4

Your app goes into the stores

We handle the App Store and Google Play — under your company's name.

5

We stay on it

Updates, new building blocks, help day to day — you are not alone with the technology.

07Set packages, set prices

What does it all cost?

There is no hourly billing and nothing added on afterwards: you choose a package, you get a fixed price for it, and you know in advance what is included. Even Start is a complete app — the larger packages add features and deeper technology, not better quality.

Included everywhere: App Store, Google Play and the browser — along with hosting, updates and support. The only difference is the feature set.

  • Updates, new features and support are part of it
  • The source code stays with us at first and becomes yours once it is paid off in full

Depending on the feature set, projects land between $4,000 and roughly $30,000 — how far your app goes is your call. We name the fixed price after a short conversation, free and without obligation.

The three packages are typical sizes; anything in between is possible too. The math: base package $4,000, each additional module about +$900, each connection to an existing system about +$2,500. The shows what every single feature costs.

Where do the speed and the price come from? We work with current tooling, AI included — the time we save goes back into the price, the care stays handmade.
