Product Tour
Every moment your business runs through —
in one calm surface.
Scroll through a real walkthrough. Each clip plays automatically as it enters view, showing the flows Portal already runs in production — plus what's next on the roadmap.
Clients request work without a single phone call.
A simple request form pulls from your service catalog, your properties, and your availability. Staff approves in one tap — or sets a client to auto-approve so recurring work just flows.
- Service combobox with categories and durations
- Pre-filled property + preferred contact method
- Auto-notifies staff via email and SMS
One queue for every decision waiting on you.
Pending bookings live in a tabbed queue you can clear in minutes. Approve assigns staff, notifies the client, and drops the row into your schedule — with a full audit trail behind it.
- Approve · reschedule · counter-propose
- Auto-approve per-client for trusted accounts
- Notifications land in email, SMS, and inbox
A shared timeline that clients actually read.
Post updates with photos right from the site. Toggle client-visible or keep it internal. Clients see a clean, human timeline of their project — no spreadsheets, no group texts.
- Client-visible or internal-only updates
- Photo upload with in-browser compression
- Milestone labels feed the client email digest
Rough electrical passed inspection.
Follow up with supplier on slab arrival date.
Demo complete, dumpster swap scheduled.
Selections with real-time allowance math.
No more spreadsheets emailed back and forth. Clients pick from curated options and see instantly whether they're under, on, or over allowance — with a typed signature on the pick.
- Per-item allowance with running total
- Typed-signature pick with IP + timestamp
- Change orders auto-generated for overages
Invoicing with a staff-gated payment step.
Draft, review, and send line-item invoices from inside the portal. A staff review step sits between draft and payable, so nothing reaches the client until it has been checked.
- Payment gate: awaiting review → open → paid
- Line items carry through from jobs
- Designed to reconcile with your accounting system
- Cabinetry — labor · 34h$4,760
- Cabinetry — materials$3,280
- Plumbing rough-in$1,420
- Change order #2 — pantry$890
AI-drafted weekly updates — staff always approves.
Every active job gets an auto-drafted weekly update, summarized from the timeline, photos, selections, and budget. Staff reviews and one-click sends. Never auto-sent.
- Draft built from real job activity
- Voice-dictation path for daily logs planned
- Budget anomaly explanations in plain English
Why Portal
Modern where legacy tools feel dated.
Straightforward where they feel complicated.
Portal was designed inside a working construction business before being extracted as a multi-tenant product. Every decision is tuned to how a small boutique shop actually operates.
- Core features gated behind top tiers
- Spreadsheets emailed back and forth
- Group texts that can't be searched
- Clients call to find out where things stand
- Slow, dated mobile experiences
- Long setup — and longer offboarding
- Opinionated defaults — minutes to set up
- One shared timeline clients actually read
- Invitation-first client access, no forms
- Multi-tenant foundation from day one
- Progressive-web-app path for field use
- Export posture planned from launch

Delivery dates, scope, and inclusion in any tier are estimates, not commitments — they may change as the product evolves. A subscription grants access to features that are generally available at the time of purchase; planned features are delivered as they ship, at no additional cost, while the plan remains active. See the Terms for the full warranty and liability language.
