    Track job costs without a spreadsheet

    Knowing whether a job made money shouldn't require a finance background. axoJobs lets your team log labour and materials as they go, then shows the cost picture on each job in plain numbers. You catch the small extras that usually slip through, and you finish jobs with a clear view of what they actually cost.

    Log costs as the job happens

    Crews add materials and time from their phone while the work is fresh. Nothing has to be reconstructed from memory at the end of the week.

    Cost visibility without a finance team

    Each job shows what was quoted, what's been added, and where you stand against the original price. No spreadsheets, no formulas to maintain.

    Catch the extras that usually slip

    Half-hours, extra fittings and last-minute van runs are the costs that quietly eat margin. Logging them against the job is fast enough that crews actually do it.

    Understand which jobs are worth repeating

    At the end of the job you see a simple profitability view. Over time it becomes obvious which customers, job types and price points are working for you.

    A day with job costs visible in real time

    Materials picked up before the first job are logged on the way out of the merchant. Labour clocks against the job from the phone. Mid-afternoon the owner glances at a job and sees that an extra half-day has crept in — and decides whether to absorb it or talk to the customer.

    By the end of the job there's no reconstruction. The numbers are the work.

    Cost-tracking mistakes that quietly cost money

    Half-hours never logged. Fittings 'thrown in' that add up across a year. Fuel for an extra trip to the merchant absorbed without thought. Each of these is invisible without a real cost record per job — and obvious with one.

    How it fits a small business that doesn't want a finance team

    axoJobs presents costs in plain numbers per job. There are no formulas to maintain, no spreadsheets to back up, no end-of-month rebuild. The owner sees what they need; the crew logs the few extra seconds it takes to capture reality.
