Built for construction & trades

Built for your crew.
Not everyone else's.

Most time tracking and job-cost tools are built for every industry — which means they're really built for none of them. I build custom systems for construction and trades companies that fit exactly how your crew works, without the bloat or the price tag that comes with it.

You're paying for
a tool that wasn't
built for you.

Maybe you found one built for construction. Great. Now you're paying $200–$500 a month — charged per employee — for scheduling, estimating, CRM, document management, and a dozen other things you don't touch. You needed time tracking and job costing. You got a Swiss Army knife when you needed a hammer.

And the features you actually need? Still don't quite fit. So your guys half-use it, the data's unreliable, and you're still doing the real work manually on the side. You're not getting a bad deal because you're bad at picking software. You're getting a bad deal because nobody built the right thing for you. Until now!

What I typically walk into...

  • Paying for features you'll never use Bloated platforms priced for enterprise — you're using 10% of it and paying for the other 90%
  • The app doesn't fit how your crew works Built for offices and retail, not job sites — so your guys don't use it right, and you don't trust the data
  • No real job-cost visibility Hours go into the system but never tie back to specific jobs — you still don't know which jobs made money
  • Payroll still takes too long Even with a tool in place, you're still manually pulling, adjusting, and re-entering data every pay period

What I Build

Custom systems. Built for the field.

Time Tracking Systems

Your crew clocks in and out from their phone. You get a live dashboard of who's on site, automatic biweekly timecards, and payroll that takes minutes — not hours.

Job Costing Tools

Hours logged per job. Labor costs calculated automatically. You finally know what each job actually cost you — while the job is still running, not after it's done.

Hey, I'm Tyler

I build the software. You run the jobs.

I'm a software developer who builds custom time tracking and job-cost systems specifically for construction and trades businesses. I've built ForgeTrack for a real construction company — and I know this space. I'm not selling you a product. I'm building you something that works exactly the way your crew works, then handing it over. No retainer required. No learning curve. Just a tool that fits.
