The all-in-one software for service contractors.
Elevator, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, or any other trade: TradeGOAT runs the whole business, front to back.
Build the proposal from your own documents, get it signed, dispatch the job, run the field from a phone, and keep the money in step with QuickBooks. The owner sees all of it from a PC, a tablet or a phone.
Founding rate: half price for as long as you stay. Spots are limited, and once they're gone, they're gone. A company name and an email is the whole signup. No credit card to start.
The whole job, in the order it happens.
One tool from the first proposal to the last payment.
From your own documents and your own language. Upload the proposal you already send and it becomes your template.
The customer signs online or on the glass. Signing starts the job.
Send it to a tech from one board. Their phone buzzes, they acknowledge, and you watch it move to done.
Your techs get their own screen on their phone: time clock, service tickets and receipts, and nothing else to learn.
Invoices push to QuickBooks and payments read back, so your bookkeeper or CPA works from the books they already use.
Every job, every dollar and every tech, from a PC, a tablet or a phone.
You decide who sees the money. Prices are turned on person by person, so a tech can do the work in the tool without seeing what the job is worth.
Start with the proposal you already use
Upload your Word or PDF. TradeGOAT reads your scope language, terms, warranty, and payment schedule — and you confirm every fill-in spot against your own words before anything is saved.
- Finished proposals render to real Word documents in your format, with your logo
- A proposal physically can't go out with a blank a customer would see
- Signed proposals freeze forever — changes become change orders
Know what every job is making — while it runs
Most contractors find out what a job made at tax time. The live scorecard shows bid vs actual by cost bucket while you can still steer the margin back into the green.
- Billing milestones per job — your payment split, invoice numbers, collected status per draw
- QuickBooks connected — push invoices, read payments back; the books are the billing truth
- The owner's money view — billed vs collected vs backlog, revealed on tap, gated person by person
The field runs through it now, too
Your techs don't need a manual or a laptop. It installs from the browser like an app and works from the truck.
- NEWGPS time clock — clock in and out on a phone, switch jobs mid-day, punches land on a map
- NEWTimecards that flag themselves — missed punches and overtime surface automatically; payroll hours export in one click
- NEWField receipts — snap it on the phone and it files to the job
- NEWTime on the work order — tickets carry the hours; every unit under contract shows its service time
- Your own service ticket digitized — filled on a phone, signed on glass, PDF emails itself
Every job teaches you something — automatically
Won and lost proposals freeze their economics the moment they close. No data entry, no spreadsheet homework — the analysis builds itself from work you already did.
- Won vs lost — margins, price per day, where you win by size and type
- Qualification packet — the questions general contractors ask, printable in one click
- Business overview and customer reports, exportable
How it works
No rebuilding your business inside someone else's app. No starting over. Bring what you already have and we map it.
I have been in the elevator business for over 20 years, and running my own companies for the last seven. And for those seven years, the answer was always the same: spreadsheets, Word docs, and chasing payments that were already owed to me. That's not a business. That's a second job.
TradeGOAT is what I wish existed when I started. Built by a contractor. For contractors.
