• Jobs board — drag cards through your real workflow: Lead → Estimate sent → Scheduled → Painting → Complete

• Invoices that run themselves — print or save as PDF, email in one click, recurring billing (weekly/monthly/quarterly), paid & overdue tracking
• Time tracking — start a timer on any job; tracked hours flow straight into invoices
• Reports — revenue by month, estimate win rate, top customers, and exactly who owes you what
• Excel, calendar & contacts built in — import/export .xlsx and phone contacts, calendar files for Google/Outlook/Apple, QuickBooks-ready exports
• Your logo on everything — invoices and estimates that look like a real company sent them
• 100% private — runs on YOUR computer. No subscription. No account. No cloud. Works offline.
