Timer for your business
CRM, automation and AI software for builders and contractors.
Timer runs builders and trades contractors on one system: CRM, quotes, signed change orders, stage payments and site photos, with AI that drafts for you.
01 What Timer does
What software should a builder or trades contractor run the business on?
Timer runs a building or trades business on one system: Deals is the built-in CRM, Flows is the automation, Pallas is Timer's AI, and every quote, variation, site photo and invoice sits on one memory of the job.
It fits general builders, remodelers and renovation firms, and trades such as electricians, plumbers, roofers, joiners and HVAC installers: any business that quotes a job, does it in stages and gets paid against it.
| The moment | In Timer | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| The quote | Documents, Catalog, Signatures, Flows | Out the same day, followed up until answered |
| The contract and each variation | Documents, Approvals, Signatures | Signed and dated before the work starts |
| Deposit, stage payments and final balance | Invoices, Payments, Flows | Paid without chasing |
| Site photos, notes and decisions | Projects, Files, Notes | Every decision on the job, with its photo |
| Subcontractors | Contacts, Companies, Tasks, Calendar | Who is on site and what was agreed |
| Snag list, handover and warranty | Tasks, Signatures, Reminders | Jobs closed out, retention claimed |
| New customers | Prospecting, Deals, Reviews | More customers, already qualified |
02 A week on the job
What does a working week look like for a building contractor on Timer?
On Timer, the owner, estimator, site managers and office share one record of every job, and Pallas answers any question about it with the source.
Before Timer, that Friday question meant scrolling a WhatsApp group. Now it is one job in Timer, and every answer has a source.
03 Quotes
How do I send quotes faster and win more of them as a builder?
Timer turns a site visit into a quote the same day: Pallas drafts it in Documents from your own rates and past jobs, you set the prices, the client signs online, and a Flow follows up every quote that goes quiet.
Ask Pallas which quotes went quiet this week and what they are worth, and the list comes back with each client linked.
04 Variations and change orders
How do I get a variation or change order signed so the client cannot dispute it later?
Timer sends every variation (change order) through Approvals with its price and extra days, and the client signs it on their phone before the work starts: signed, dated and attached to the job.
Six months later, "I never approved that" meets a signature with a date on it.
05 Stage payments
How does a builder get paid on time for every stage of a job?
Timer invoices each stage of a building job when it is signed off, from the deposit to the final balance, and a Flow follows up every unpaid invoice whether or not anyone remembers.
The invoice goes out when the work is signed off, not when someone gets around to it.
06 CRM or job software
Do I need a CRM and separate construction management software, or one system?
One system. In Timer, Deals is the CRM that wins the job, and Projects, Tasks, Files and Approvals run it on the same memory, so nothing is typed twice.
When a site manager leaves, the job stays: the replacement inherits every promise, photo and signed change.
07 AI and your data
Can AI write a builder's quotes, and is customer data safe with it?
Yes. Pallas, Timer's AI, drafts quotes and updates from your own rates and records, shows the source of every answer and sends nothing until a person says yes. Your data stays in the EU, isolated to your organization and never used to train AI models.
Every consequential action is recorded by Timer Seal, and the company's memory exports in full. Read how Timer handles data.
08 Cost
How much does Timer cost for a builder or trades contractor?
A building or trades business runs on Timer Business Essential, from €200 a month, billed monthly with no contract.
Weigh it against one stage payment that arrived a month late, or one variation you did the work for and never billed. Get started and a person sets up the account with you.
09 Start
How does a builder start on Timer without migrating anything?
A builder starts on Timer by connecting the mail, calendar and WhatsApp the business already uses, and Timer reads them from day one, with nothing to migrate and nothing to tag.
Keep your tools and Timer reads them, or move the work into Timer's own apps one job at a time.
