Invoicing app for general contractors
Estimate, contract, photo-document, bill in stages, close out with a signed PDF. Logged keeps every job in one record — and works offline from a gutted job site with no signal.
Why general contractors need a job log app
The bid wins on clarity, not flash
Homeowners compare three GCs side by side. The one with a clean, line-itemized estimate the client can accept from their phone wins more often than the one promising to "write something up tonight." Logged sends a web-link estimate the client signs off on without printing anything.
Stage billing is how cash flow stays positive
Deposit, mid-project draw, final balance. Logged tracks each partial payment against the job total; the Partial badge updates with every collection; the invoice promotes to Paid when the full amount is in.
Photo documentation protects against the change-order argument
"That wasn't in the original scope." A timestamped, GPS-stamped before photo settles it. Logged tags every photo (Before / In Progress / After) and groups them in the PDF under section headers — the documentation the client and the appraiser both want.
How Logged fits a GC's project
Estimate → contract → accepted
Build the line-itemized bid in Logged. Send it as a web link. The client accepts from their phone. Logged converts the estimate to a job, line items carry over.
Stage invoices through the project
Send the deposit invoice — payable by card (Pro). Mid-project draw same flow. Final balance at completion. Each payment is tracked; the math reconciles itself.
Close out with signature and photos
Capture the homeowner's signature at completion. Generate the final PDF — photos grouped by phase, signature embedded, totals reconciled. One document for the file cabinet, the appraiser, and the warranty record.
