Run the job, not the paperwork
One app for the whole trade business
7 days free · Card required · Cancel any time
One platform
All your operations
Quoting
Describe the job in plain English and get an itemised quote on your letterhead, priced off your own rates.
Jobs board
Enquiry, site visit, quoted, approved, invoiced, done. Every job on one board that matches how work actually flows.
Mobile app
Clock in and out, check today's runs, read job details and snap receipts — from the ute, with or without signal.
Invoicing
Invoices built from the same job — no double entry — with polite payment chasers that go out on your say-so.
Timesheets
GPS-tagged clock-ins build the timesheet for you, then flow straight through to Xero payroll.
Reporting
Revenue by month, job profitability and crew productivity — the numbers your accountant keeps asking for.
One platform.
Every feature.
Quoting made effortless
Type the job the way you'd text a mate. ForeMan turns it into an itemised quote priced off your rates, on your letterhead, ready to send before the servo pie's gone.
- AI quote writer — plain English in, itemised quote out
- Your rates, your markup, your letterhead
- Clients approve from their phone with one tap
From a text to a quote in seconds — your rates, your letterhead
Scheduling simplified
Approved quotes land on the board. Drag a card to book the crew and the client gets a message before you've shut the laptop.
- Drag a job onto the calendar and assign the crew
- Everyone sees the change on their phone
- Client updates go out automatically
Timesheets that build themselves
The crew clocks on from the ute and every clock-in pins a location. Hours are actual hours, not a guess written on the back of a docket.
- GPS-tagged clock on and clock off
- Weekly pay periods ready for payroll
- Every crew member included — no per-seat bill
Your crew, on the road
The mobile app is field-first: today's runs, the job details, site photos and receipts. No reception out the back paddock? It queues and syncs when you're back in range.
- Today's runs and job details on their phone
- Snap a receipt straight onto the job
- Works offline and syncs when signal returns
Integrated financial management
Mark the job done and the invoice goes. Slow payers get a nudge that sounds like you, not a lawyer. Take a card payment on site or send a payment link from the job.
- Invoices built from the same job — no double entry
- Polite AI payment chasers you approve before they send
- Tap to pay on site, or send a payment link
Budgets for the big builds
Multi-week jobs with a budget that holds. Phases, cost versus charge, site expenses, variations and progress claims — the renovation runs like twenty small jobs with the margin on show.
- Budget vs actual, live, as labour and materials land
- Variations logged and progress claims raised
- Committed, claimed and remaining on one screen
Connected to the tools you already run
Invoices flow to Xero when you're ready and scheduled jobs show up in Google Calendar. Switch it on in settings — no accountant required.
- Xero for invoices, bills and payroll
- Google Calendar for the schedule
- Stripe, Slack, Gmail and 30+ more via Connect
Built for every trade
ForeMan is shaped around how trade businesses actually run — recurring runs for gardeners, emergency call-outs for plumbers, staged progress claims for builders. Pick your trade and see what changes.
Quote the switchboard upgrade from the driveway, not the dining table.
- AI quotes priced off your rates
- Recurring test runs on the schedule
- Invoice + chaser the day it's done
What tradies say
about ForeMan
“Wrote my Sunday-night quotes in the ute waiting for a servo pie. Life changed.”
“Chased three overdue invoices while I was under a sink. Didn't even get my shirt wet.”
“My spreadsheet cried actual tears when I uninstalled it. Good riddance.”
“Booked four lockouts while elbow-deep in a deadbolt. Better people skills than me.”
AI oversight means less admin work
Stop doing paperwork at 9pm. ForeMan's AI writes the quotes, answers the phone, drafts the replies and chases the money — in the background, and never without your say-so.
AI quote writer
Describe the job in a sentence and get a priced, itemised quote back. It reads your rate card, not a generic price book.
AI phone receptionist
Missed calls are missed jobs. The receptionist picks up, takes the details, checks the address and books the slot — even mid-way up a ladder.
AI payment chasers
Overdue invoices get a polite, human-sounding nudge on a schedule you set. Nothing sends until you've hit send.
AI inbox drafts
Client emails come back with a reply already drafted in your voice, linked to the job it's about.
Hear it answer your phone
This is the same receptionist your callers get. Give it a ring and try to book a job.

Give your crew the tools they need on the road
