Read full description

SteerJobs keeps every job on track with photo proof. Break each job into steps — demo, rough-in, drywall, cabinets, final walkthrough — or start from a template. Your crew photographs the finished work for their step. You review the photos and approve them, or send the step back with a note. Nothing is marked done until you've seen it. Every photo is stamped on the pixels: the step, the address, the permit number, GPS and time. FOR THE OWNER - See every job at a glance, with progress for each - Review and approve crew photos from the office or your phone - Request a redo with a note when work needs fixing - Flag a photo for a change order; the homeowner answers from Client View or by email - Assign crew to jobs and steps, set target dates, see what's running behind - Make a photo report: one PDF of the job's steps and photos, saved with the job - Keep plans, permits and 3D models with the job, tagged to the steps that need them - Place a 3D model on the lot in AR and walk through it at full size FOR THE CREW - See your jobs and your steps - Take photos right from the step you're working, sideways or upright - Clock in and out, with your hours tallied - Get asked whether to clock in when you arrive at a jobsite CLIENT VIEW Homeowners open their job with a code sent to their email: progress, approved photos, documents you share, change orders to answer, and messages with your office. PARTNER COMPANIES Share a job, or sections of it, with another company on SteerJobs. Their crew photographs those steps; you review, as always. SCHEDULE AND WEATHER Steps on a calendar with an agenda, late ones flagged, company events and inspections. Weather at every job site, rain under step dates, and rain alerts at the chance you choose. HOURS Clock in and out on site, by place and work type. Hours add up by your pay week. Owners can correct a shift, and every change is marked. MAP Every job on a satellite map, with who's on site and the forecast. LEADS Capture photos before there is a job, then make a hot or cold lead from them. Repeating jobs and visits for lawn, pool and pressure-washing work. Work in more than one company and switch between them. Sign in with Apple. Dark mode. Works in English and Spanish.
