Make a big job easy to ask about.
A roof or a kitchen is a big decision, and homeowners get three bids before they choose. We build a site that shows how you work and takes a project request with the details you need to bid. Digital employees draft the replies, track the deposits and look into the local market, while you are on the job.
Free website check. No card needed. About a minute.
HomeownerWe had storm damage. Can someone look at the roof?
Maya, digital employeeSorry to hear it. What's the address? Here's how a site visit works.
The jobs that matter
Where a contracting business wins or loses.
Project requests, answered
Reads each request and drafts a reply from your fact sheet: what you take on, how you bid, typical lead times, how a site visit works. She asks for the missing detail, such as photos or the age of the roof. Prices, scope disputes and warranty questions come to you.
HomeownerDo you do kitchen remodels? Hoping to start in June.
MayaWe do. Could you send a few photos of the space? The owner will set up a site visit.
The details
Everything else, in plain words.
- Homeowners get three bids and pick on trust
- The price is not the only thing they compare. They are deciding who will turn up, who will finish, and who will answer the phone when something goes wrong. Your website is the first evidence.
- Project requests arrive with no detail
- "Need a quote for a roof" tells you nothing. Without the address, the age of the roof, the kind of problem and a few photos, you spend your first call asking questions you could have been asked in writing.
- Quotes go quiet
- A bid sent on Friday with no follow-up on Wednesday often becomes a job for the contractor who did follow up. Remembering to ask is difficult when you are on a ladder.
- Deposits and progress payments get tangled
- A single job can have a deposit, a materials payment and a final balance. Keeping track of which of them have arrived, across several jobs, is how invoices get missed.
A site that shows you can finish what you start.
Built for project trades: your services, your process and your work, with a request form that gets you what you need to bid.
- A page for each kind of project you want more of: re-roofs, repairs, interior painting, additions
- A process page that says what happens from the first visit to the final walkthrough
- A project request form that asks for the address, project type, timeline and photos
- A gallery structure for your own finished work, which you provide and own
- A page for your license and insurance details, shown only as you provide them
- Domain records prepared and verified once you add them, plus local search basics
One selected design, with 3 revision rounds within the agreed scope. Revisions cover wording, images, colours and minor layout changes to approved content. A new application, major integration or new brand direction is separately scoped.
A roof estimate after a storm.
Ridgeline Roofing and Repair is an invented small crew, used only to show the flow. It is not a real business.
- Monday, 7:20 PMWebsite
A homeowner fills in the project request: leaks in one corner after a storm, a roof about twenty years old, and three photos.
- Monday, 7:24 PMDigital employee
Maya drafts a reply from the fact sheet: the company does repairs and re-roofs in that area, here is how a site visit and written estimate work, and can someone be there Wednesday morning? The email says she is a digital employee.
- Tuesday, 6:40 AMYou
The owner reads it before climbing onto another roof, and approves it.
- WednesdayYou
The owner does the visit and sends the written estimate himself.
- Following weekYou
The customer accepts. The owner logs the deposit in the dashboard.
- Next morningDigital employee
Jordan shows the deposit on the Finances page, with the balance listed as due on completion.
A storm brings a rush of requests. This one was answered the same evening, and every price and promise came from the owner.
Fictional exampleThe business and the people in this example are invented. It shows the order of events, not a result.
For project trades, the most useful first step is a website that shows how you work and takes a proper project request. That is the website build, and the digital employees can be added when you are ready.

- It does not estimate materials, measure roofs or write your bids. Every price in a reply is yours.
- It does not hold or verify your contractor license. The site shows the license and insurance details you provide.
- It does not give code, permit or structural advice, and it does not promise search rankings or a number of new jobs.
Can the site include my past projects?
Yes. The gallery is built from photos you provide and own. Your before-and-after photos are far more convincing than stock images, and we do not use fake projects.
Does the site show prices?
Only the ones you choose to publish. Many contractors explain how they bid and what a site visit includes, rather than publishing numbers.
Who sends the bid?
You do. Maya can draft the first reply and ask for details, but a bid, a scope or a price goes out from you, written by you.
I do commercial and residential. Can the site handle both?
Yes. Separate pages and a request form that asks which kind of project it is, so the right questions are asked of each.
