TradeflarePainting contractor software that runs from your phone
TradeFlare is painting contractor software for crews that live on job sites, not in an office. Build quotes from your price book after the walkthrough, let the customer sign on their phone, run the crew with push-to-talk and job photos, and collect the balance by card when the last coat is dry.
Or download the app and start the 14-day trial on Pro or Crew.
What TradeFlare fixes
Quotes that go out the same day
Save your services and prices once, then build the quote in the driveway and send it before you leave.
Crews on two sites
Hold to talk to each crew and drop photos of a problem wall into the same channel.
Extras the homeowner adds
Write a change order for the extra room or the trim upgrade, tied to the same job.
Everything in one phone app
Price book and quotes
Save your services and prices once, even by voice, and reuse them on every quote. Send the quote from your phone, watch it go Draft > Sent > Viewed > Accepted, and turn it into a job with Make it a job. Unanswered quotes get an automatic follow-up.
Crew walkie-talkie and chat
Hold to talk to your crew live, like a radio, on iPhone or Android, and drop job photos into the same channel. Crew chat with push notifications, rooms and direct messages sit next to it, and you can share a job into a thread so everyone sees the same address and notes.
Quotes, change orders and invoices
Build quotes from your price book, let the customer sign right on the quote, add change orders when the job changes, and create the invoice from the quote, the job or from scratch. Past-due invoices get a friendly reminder automatically.
Card payments on the invoice
Tap Collect payment and text a secure Stripe pay link or show a QR code; the customer pays by card or bank transfer on their own phone and the invoice flips to Paid. Payments run on your own Stripe account. TradeFlare adds no fee of its own (Stripe's standard fees apply). There's no card reader or Tap to Pay yet.
AI front desk, 24/7
The AI front desk answers your business line day and night, tells callers they're talking to an AI assistant, takes their name, number, address and what's going on, and saves the call as a lead with a summary, transcript and recording. Emergencies get flagged with a loud alarm on the on-call phone that rings through Do Not Disturb.
