## What is Job Cost Pro?

Job Cost Pro is the AI cost tracker built for remodelers,
contractors, and trade pros. Snap a receipt at the supply yard — AI
reads every line item, sorts it into 13 construction categories,
matches it to the right job, and updates your profit margin in
seconds. No spreadsheets. No bookkeeper.

Built by a Fort Worth remodeling contractor for the way the trade
actually works.

WHAT THE AI DOES (it does a lot)

• Reads any receipt — Home Depot, Lowe's, Ferguson, Ace, lumberyards,
  thermal slips. Multi-page receipts auto-merge.
• Sorts every line item into the right construction category
  (lumber, plumbing, electrical, paint, drywall, fixtures, hardware,
  insulation, roofing, appliances, concrete, tile, misc).
• Matches receipts to projects by PO/Job name — even when the cashier
  misspells it. "jonson kitch" matches "Johnson Kitchen".
• Catches duplicate receipts AND duplicate labor payments before they
  inflate your costs.
• Reads return receipts and subtracts them from the right project
  automatically.
• Detects Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, and check photos as labor payments
  with worker name, amount, and method.
• Voice-to-expense — speak naturally and AI parses amount, vendor,
  project, and category.
• Reads bid PDFs you upload — extracts scope, totals, and line items
  in seconds.
• Reads contract PDFs you upload — extracts client name, project
  scope, and contract amount.
• Writes a year-end tax narrative for your accountant inside your
  one-click tax package export.
• Chat with your data — ask "what's my margin on the Smith kitchen?"
  and the AI answers using your live project numbers.
• Remembers your pricing rules, markup rates, and vendor preferences
  across every chat — server-side, encrypted, RLS-locked.

THE WHOLE WORKFLOW

• Real-time profit margin — set a contract amount + change orders,
  see live profit-per-day as receipts and labor land
• Project Health 0-100 score — budget, pace, receipt coverage, and
  category mix in one number
• Spend-pace progress bars vs. project end dates
• Budget alerts when a project crosses thresholds
• Change order tracking with auto-roll-up into profit math
• Photo gallery per project — for clients, disputes, and your records
• Client portal — share a live cost link that builds trust and
  justifies your invoices
• White-label invoices and reports with your logo and brand colors
• Universal search across every receipt, item, and vendor
• Archive system with soft-delete + restore (clean up without fear)

CREW MANAGEMENT (Contractor + Business tiers)

• Add team members with pay rates and roles
• GPS clock-in/out with geofence verification at jobsites
• Mileage tracking at the IRS standard rate ($0.70/mi)
• Subcontractor submission portal — subs scan their own receipts
  from a shared link, you see them all in your dashboard
• Payroll exports for your accountant or bookkeeper
