Because every small business deserves a Back Office. Back Office by f.a. is the invoicing, quoting and scheduling app for solo trades and service businesses — plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, landscapers, cleaners, handymen. You say what happened in plain English; the app does the paperwork. "Invoice Dave 800 for a water heater" becomes a real invoice on a real set of books, emailed to Dave with a card payment link on it — in seconds. Everything runs off one message box. Type it or just say it out loud. INVOICING BY TEXT OR VOICE Send a professional invoice by typing one sentence. Your customer gets a clean hosted page with a Pay button; card payments through Stripe or Square go straight to your own account, never ours. QUOTES CUSTOMERS CAN ACCEPT Build quotes from your own price book, send a link the customer can approve right on their phone, and turn an accepted quote into an invoice — and a booked job — with one tap. A SCHEDULE THAT WORKS LIKE A DISPATCHER Book jobs with realistic travel time between them, share a public booking page so customers pick a slot themselves, and let the app text confirmations, reminders and "on my way" messages for you. Optional Google Calendar sync. GET PAID WITHOUT THE AWKWARD CALLS Overdue invoices are chased automatically on a schedule you control — polite reminders by email or text, and you decide who gets them. Forwarded payment emails match themselves back to the right invoice. RECEIPTS THAT FILE THEMSELVES Photograph a receipt; the vendor, total and line items are read off it and categorized into your books. BANK FEEDS Connect your bank and every transaction shows up ready to review — matched to invoices, payouts and expenses automatically. KNOW YOUR NUMBERS Profit & loss, balance sheet, aging and analytics — plus plain-English answers when you ask "how much did I make last month?" YOUR BOOKS, YOUR CHOICE Keep your books in GoodBooks, our built-in double-entry ledger — or connect QuickBooks Online or FreshBooks and we read and write through their official APIs. Your books never leave your provider, and we never see your accounting password. Built for one-person service businesses in the United States. Sign in with Apple, Google, or an emailed link — no setup project, no training videos. Send your first invoice in the first minute.
