One record, six stages. Everything above is the same job — which is why nothing is typed twice.
Start freeSound familiar
Too much paperwork. Too much follow-up.
Between job sites, estimates, invoices, and chasing payments, admin work quickly eats into time that should be spent on the job. Paper quotes, manual follow-ups, and slow payments create unnecessary delays.
Most of it comes from the same thing: the quote lives in one app, the schedule on a whiteboard, the invoice somewhere else, and the job itself only in your head. Chronly is contractor management software that keeps all of it on one record.
What Chronly replaces for a small contractor
- Word or PDF estimate templatesQuotes
- The job-tracking spreadsheetJobs
- Whiteboard and group textsScheduling
- A separate invoicing toolInvoices
- A second payment processorPayments
One login, one customer list, one place the money and the work agree. Chronly connects to the accounting software you already use rather than replacing it.
Step 1 & 2 · Quotes and approvals
Quote from anywhere, get approved without the back-and-forth
Create professional digital quotes directly from your phone or laptop — on site, at the shop, or from home. Set quantities, pricing, discounts, and taxes in one place, then send the quote instantly to your customer.
Customers review and approve online with a single click. Contractor quoting software that tracks which quotes are sent, viewed, approved, or expired, so you always know where things stand — and automatic notifications reduce follow-up so quotes do not stall.
- No paperwork, no trip back to the officePrice and send it in the driveway before you leave.
- You know when it was openedSent, viewed, approved or expired — visible at a glance.
- Take a deposit on approvalStart the work with money already in the account.

One link to the customer. They approve it in a tap, with no login and no PDF to sign.
Step 3 · Jobs
An approved quote becomes a job — with everything already on it
Turn the approved quote into a job in one step. The customer, the site address, the priced work and the quote itself come with it, so nobody re-types the estimate into a spreadsheet. From there the job holds the schedule, the crew, the permits and drawings, the invoices and every note about the work — which is what contractor job management software should mean.

Every job stays on the customer's record, so next time they call you can see what you did, what you charged and how it went.
Step 4 · Scheduling
Scheduling that knows who is actually free
Book job visits on a calendar that already knows your crew's working hours and their booked time off. Run as many calendars as your business needs — install crews, service calls, the shop, a truck — colour the week by employee to see who is doing what, and move a visit from your phone when the weather turns.
- Visits, on a real calendarJob visits land on a week or month grid you can drag, filter and read at a glance.
- Working hours and time offPer employee, so the schedule reflects the week your crew actually has.
- See it by employeeSwitch the colours to per-person and the week tells you who is doing what.
- Move things from a phoneReschedule from the truck and the job, the crew and the customer all find out at once.
Contractor scheduling software that belongs to the same record as the quote and the invoice — so a rained-out Monday is one drag, not five phone calls.

What you get
Contractor software that covers the whole business
Quotes and estimates
Priced line items, quantities, discounts and taxes, sent as a link your customer approves in a tap — with an optional deposit.
Jobs with everything on them
Permits, drawings, before and after photos, the quote, the invoices and every note, kept where the crew can find them.
Visits and crew scheduling
As many visits as the work needs, each with its own date, time and crew, on as many calendars as your business runs.
Working hours and time off
Weekly hours per person, including four-day weeks and early starts, so the calendar never offers a slot nobody works.
Your crew, with the right access
Viewer, Editor or Admin per job, and a separate say over who may mark the work finished.
A job page you can share
Send your customer a link showing the schedule, the progress and the documents you chose to share. No login, no app.
Invoices and recurring billing
Convert a quote, bill a finished job, or put the customers you maintain monthly on a recurring schedule.
Expenses and mileage
Log material receipts and the driving between sites as you go, so tax time is a report rather than a shoebox.
Every change on the record
Scheduled, moved, completed or cancelled — written to the job's history with who did it and when.

Questions
Contractor software questions, answered
- Can Chronly run my business from quote to payment?
Yes. Quote the work, get it approved online, turn the approved quote into a job, schedule the visits and the crew, invoice the finished work and take the payment — all on one record, in one app, with nothing re-typed between steps.
- Does an approved quote become a job automatically?
You create the job from the accepted quote in one step, and the customer, the site address, the priced work and the quote itself come with it. The job then holds the schedule, the crew, the files and the invoices it produces.
- How does contractor scheduling work in Chronly?
Schedule visits against the job. A job can have as many visits as the work needs, each with its own date, time and crew, and every one lands on the scheduling calendar. Employees have their own working hours and booked time off, so the grid shows who is actually free before you book anything.
- Can I see my crew's schedules and reschedule from site?
Yes. Colour the week by employee to see who is doing what, and move a visit from your phone. The job, the assigned crew and the customer's shared job page all update together, and the change is written to the job's history.
- Can I invoice and take payment in the same app?
Yes. Convert a quote to an invoice in one click and take payment by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or bank transfer on the same link. Cards are 2.79% + $0.15 with a subscription, bank transfers 1% capped at $5, and funds land in 1–3 business days.
- Is there really a free plan?
Yes — an always-free plan, not a trial. Sign up with no credit card, send quotes and invoices, and move to a paid plan only when the better processing rates and the extra features are worth it to you.
- Do I have to stop using my accounting software?
No. Chronly replaces the separate tools you use for quoting, jobs, scheduling and payments, and connects to accounting software like Sage, QuickBooks and Wave rather than replacing your books.
- Which trades is this for?
Any contractor with customers, dates and paperwork — renovations, decks and framing, landscaping, HVAC, plumbing and electrical, roofing, service and repair work, and seasonal maintenance contracts.
Quote → approval → job → schedule → invoice → paid
Spend less time on admin. Spend more time on the job.
