For owner-led trade businesses

Run your business from the job. Simply text it.

The quotes, invoices and reminders that wait for tonight, handled from wherever you are. Text it a note, a photo or a customer's message, or open the app. It drafts from prices you've already charged, and tells you what needs you.

The quotes, invoices and reminders that wait for tonight, handled from wherever you are. Text it, or open the app.

Nothing goes to a customer and nothing touches money until you look it over and tap Approve.

Nothing goes out until you tap Approve.

Your evenings back.

The quotes, invoices and follow-ups that pile up while you're on the job get handled as they come up, so you're not catching up at the kitchen table after dinner.

Quotes and invoices while it's fresh

Text the job from the driveway and the quote is drafted from what you've charged before. You check it and approve it. When the job ends, the invoice is already prepared from the accepted quote.

Instead of building them from scratch on Sunday night.

Everything on the right job

A customer's text, a photo, a receipt, a change on site: each one is filed on its job, with a reminder when you need one. Open a job and its whole story is there.

Instead of photos in your camera roll and promises you have to remember.

Know who owes you

Each morning, one short list of what needs you, money first: a finished job not yet billed, a quote with no answer, a payment that's late.

Instead of digging through a notebook or spreadsheet to find out.

  • Nothing to set up first. Start with one text. No training and no weekend spent importing.
  • Keep what you already use. An invoice book, a spreadsheet, photos of handwritten quotes. It works beside your accounting, not instead of it.
  • Use the phone you have. Text from the truck with one thumb. The app is there when you sit down.

What you can text it

The work that piles up between jobs.

A quick note

Novak needs a GFCI by the sink. Remind me Thursday.Noted on the Novak job. I'll remind you Thursday morning.Thursday 7:00 AMReminder: Novak needs a GFCI by the sink.

Lands on the right job, with the reminder set. No app to open.

A customer's text

Forward it and it finds the job. If two jobs could match, it asks which.

How it works

Brief it once, then text it whatever comes up. You decide what goes out.

Once, to start

Tell it about your business

Text it or open the app, and brief it like a new hire.

  • Your trade, your area and how you work
  • A few past quotes or invoices, even handwritten
  • Photos from your jobs

It learns your prices and your customers. Everything you give it is kept for you, and you can download all of it any time.

Every time you text it

  1. You

    You send it.

    A note, a photo, a customer's message you forward, or a plain request like "Quote the Ortiz job." Text it, or type or talk in the app.

  2. DoneSimpli

    It finds the job.

    It matches the customer and the job from your records. If two jobs could fit, it asks which, and one reply files it.

  3. DoneSimpli

    It drafts from your own prices.

    Each line is matched to something you've charged before and shows where the price came from: your quotes, your invoices, a handwritten one you sent a photo of. A line with no past price stays blank, and it asks you.

  4. You

    You look it over and tap Approve.

    The quote or invoice waits on a review page, every line with its source. Nothing goes to a customer and nothing touches money until you tap Approve. A "yeah" in a reply doesn't count.

  5. DoneSimpli

    It files it and lines up what's next.

    The PDF is saved on the job, ready for you to send the way you choose. DoneSimpli talks to you, not to your customers.

Every morning

One text with what needs you, money first

  • A finished job not yet invoiced
  • A quote that's gone quiet
  • A payment that's late

It has the next step ready. Nothing goes out until you say so.

See it. Decide it. Done.

See it in action
