One app for a local service business. Your listing where customers look. Free estimate requests from people near you. Your customers, jobs and paperwork. Your reviews. Your crew’s hours. On your phone and on your desktop.
Built for the trades first. Open to every local business.
Free to download. Free to list your business. Free estimate requests — no per-lead fee, ever. iPhone, Android, and any browser at app.theworktool.com.
Social
Post the work you just finished - photos, video, the truck, the crew. Customers, other businesses and the people who might work for you see it in the same feed. Follow, comment, save, and message anyone from their profile.
Directory
Local businesses and freelancers across 24 industries, trades up top. Browse by category, switch between list and map, open a profile to call, email, message or get directions. Don't want to call eight of them? Tap Get Estimate and let them come to you.
Projects
A CRM for people who don't want a CRM. Every customer and job through six stages, notes and files attached to the job, and estimates, invoices, work orders and supply orders generated as PDFs you can send. Free. Premium Projects adds reusable templates and a saved line-item library.
Messages
One-on-one and group messages with customers, crew, subs and suppliers - without handing out your personal number.
Bring your book with you
Pull the contacts off your phone into Projects. Coming from JobNimbus, AccuLynx, Jobber or Joist? Import customers and jobs from a CSV. Export customers and invoices to QuickBooks at tax time.
Payouts
Log your 1099 crew's hours in the Timesheet, see exactly what each person is owed for the week, and keep a record of what you've paid. Your workers set up their own payout account with Stripe, so their bank details never sit with you.
Free estimate requests
Someone nearby needs your trade. They pick your category, enter the project ZIP and describe the job. It hits your email, your WorkTool messages and your phone. It costs you nothing: no per-lead fee, no bidding, no subscription to unlock it. Each request goes to the 10 closest businesses in that category within 100 miles, so you're up against a handful of local outfits, not a call centre. List your business under a category and you're in - there's nothing to switch on.
Toolbox
Add only the tools you need, one at a time. First one out, free for everyone: Crew Timesheet - hours by day, weekly totals and pay rates per person, shifts attached to a job, and a record of what's been paid. Every new tool lands here, priced on its own, so you never pay for features you don't open.

We find that most business software is too complicated and expensive. The Toolbox is a la carte – add a tool, use a tool – and every new tool is priced on its own, so you never pay for features you don’t open.
