Every app is one more thing to mess up or forget to update.

Four ways the current system costs you money.

Copy. Paste. Again.

The double entry tax

"I gotta take all those numbers and make them again somewhere else." Retyping across tools creates avoidable mistakes and eats time on every job.

Happens on every job Every time, no exceptions

Change orders over text

"We talked about it over text." If scope changes are not signed, approval disputes are easy and margin is at risk.

No signed paper trail Easy to dispute later

Estimates that take an hour

"Half hour to an hour typing everything out - starting from scratch every time." Another contractor sent theirs 4 hours ago.

Built after hours Loses speed to competitors

Payments in 3 different places

"The invoice, payment, and receipt all live in different views." Reconciling who paid what means digging through multiple records instead of one source of truth.

Who paid me and when? Three places to check

The DoneBuild Client Experience

Everything connected. No friction for you. No friction for the client.

Why not just use what everyone else uses?
