What gets in the way

The paperwork solar installers shouldn’t be doing by hand.

  • Roof safety checks on paper.

    A required safety sheet at every clock-in, with signatures and photos.

  • Layout changes the crew didn't see.

    Upload the new revision; the reader marks it current and shows what changed.

  • Install photos scattered across phones.

    Photos land on the job with the date, ready for the client or inspector.

The tools you’ll use

Everything on the job, nothing you don’t need.

  • Safety sheets at clock-in

    Your own checklists — ticks, yes/no, signatures, photos — answered at every clock-in and job change, and kept as signed PDFs.

  • Blueprint reader

    Upload the PDF set and every page becomes a sheet to zoom and flip. Compare revisions, and mark up a copy to save, post in the job chat, or email.

  • Job photos

    Photos land on the job, not in someone's camera roll. Mark them up on upload; they shrink on the phone so they send on a weak signal.

  • Crew time clock

    Crew clock in and out of a job from their own phone with a PIN — no app store, no email accounts. Switch jobs and take breaks in a tap.

  • Estimates that win work

    Your logo and colour on clean paper, with deposits, discounts, and tax. Email the PDF from the app; replies come back to you.

  • Invoices and reminders

    Turn the estimate into the job and the job into the invoice without retyping a line. Record partial payments and see what's owed.

  • Certificates and job files

    Each person's certificates and licences with expiry warnings, and a job's contracts and drawings in folders on the job.

  • Client updates

    Pro

    Send the client progress, what's next, and the latest photos, built from the job — plus a private progress page they can check.

Something you’ll never use? Turn it off in Settings and it leaves your menu. See every feature.

Questions

Asked by solar installers

More in the full FAQ.

Do my crew need to download an app?
No. They open one link or scan your QR code on any phone and sign in with a PIN. You can add it to their home screen so it opens like an app.

See it in the app
