TradeWork: jobs, crews, invoices in one app

The old way is a mess. Estimates live in Notes. Invoices are PDFs you email. Crews coordinate over text. Payments arrive by check. General-purpose CRMs are built for offices, not trucks. Trade apps usually serve the back office and forget the field.

TradeWork fixes that. It's mobile-first and built for the job site. You create estimates on the phone, assign crews, and send invoices from the same screen. Payments track in the app. Bilingual surfaces mean the foreman, the helper, and the office all see the same job — no double entry, no guesswork.

It's one place for jobs, crews, invoices, and payments. Less time on the phone. Less time copying numbers from one app to another. More time out front.

Why this matters for us: the trades run our neighborhoods, and the tools for them should work in the field, not just in the office.
