The second shift

Stop working
two jobs.

There's the business you signed up for — the one on the tools. Then there's the one nobody warned you about: quotes at the kitchen table, working out where every job is up to, writing tomorrow into a diary, remembering what the extra work was, re-typing won jobs into the books.

Tradewin shrinks that second shift. Some of it disappears entirely.

What Tradewin can give back

6.3 hrs/week

That's about 27 hours a month back on the tools — or off the clock.

Take it back — start free

Estimate only, based on ~30 min per manual quote (vs ~2 min in Tradewin), ~15 min chasing a quote (tracked automatically), and ~20 min re-keying an invoice (drafted into Xero in one tap). Your real numbers will vary.

Draft without lifting a finger

Repeat jobs can draft themselves. From your real costs.

Give your customers a number to text. They describe the job. Tradewin builds a profit-optimised quote from your saved Recipe. The priced draft waits in Review & Send, ready for you to check and send. The intake and first pricing pass leave your plate.

  • Customer texts — no app, no account
  • Priced draft built from your saved Recipe
  • Review and send from your phone, anywhere
  • New services default to draft review

Six ways the admin shrinks

Kill the quote gap

Quote on the call, not tonight

Costs in, optimal price out, professional quote in their inbox — under two minutes, before you've driven away. The other tradie is still writing his up tonight.

The Quote Gap

Stop guessing, start keeping

The right price, with your real take-home

Your true break-even and recommended price load automatically, and you see profit after tax and GST before you send. Win fewer jobs, earn more money — the maths most tradies never run.

How it works

Drafting runs without you

Inbound drafts ready when you are

Customers text your number and Tradewin uses your saved Recipe to prepare a priced draft. You review and send when you're ready.

SMS Auto-Quote

No more Sunday-night planning

The diary is attached to the job

Book the won job straight in — day view, week view, whoever's on it. The customer gets a text the day before, so the ring-round to confirm tomorrow stops happening.

Scheduling

No argument at the end

The extra work is agreed before you do it

Write the variation up on site, attach the photo, hand them the phone to sign. It carries onto the invoice by itself — instead of being a conversation you have to have after the bill lands.

Variations

Zero re-keying

Invoices land in your books in one tap

Raise the invoice off the job with the quote and every signed variation already on it, then send it to Xero as a draft. No copy-paste. No chasing the bookkeeper.
