16 powerful features built specifically for contractors — from AI-powered estimates to mileage tracking, all in one platform.
Your entire business at a glance
Get a real-time snapshot of every active project, outstanding invoice, and team update from one unified dashboard. BuildCrux surfaces the KPIs that matter most to contractors — revenue collected, jobs in progress, upcoming deadlines, and recent activity — so you spend less time hunting for information and more time on the jobsite.
Track every job from bid to close-out
Organize residential and commercial jobs with phases, timelines, and status tracking purpose-built for contractors. BuildCrux lets you break each project into scheduled phases, assign tasks, monitor budgets, and keep your entire crew aligned — whether you run two jobs or two hundred.
Send invoices and get paid faster
Create professional invoices, send them to clients, and collect payments through integrated Stripe processing — all without leaving BuildCrux. Automated status tracking shows you exactly which invoices are paid, pending, or overdue so nothing slips through the cracks.
AI-powered estimates from your blueprints
Upload blueprints and let BuildCrux AI analyze them to generate detailed cost estimates with line items, material quantities, and labor hours. The AI reads architectural drawings so you can produce accurate bids in minutes instead of hours.
Keep every client detail in one place
Maintain a complete CRM for your contracting business with customer profiles, contact details, project history, and communication logs. BuildCrux auto-creates customer records when you send invitations, so your database stays current without extra data entry.
Digital contracts signed and stored securely
Create, send, and manage digital contracts with version tracking and e-signature support. BuildCrux keeps every agreement linked to its project so you always have the latest signed version at your fingertips — on the jobsite or in the office.
Manage scope changes without the chaos
Track every scope change with a numbered change order system that keeps clients and crews aligned. BuildCrux logs the what, why, and cost impact of each CO and routes it through an approval workflow so nothing gets built (or billed) without sign-off.
One inbox for your crew and clients
Communicate with team members and customers from a single unified inbox with email and SMS delivery. BuildCrux keeps every conversation tied to the right project so you never lose context — and your crew gets the message however they prefer to receive it.
Document every jobsite with project photos
Capture and organize project photos directly in BuildCrux so every before, during, and after shot is linked to the right job. Photo documentation protects you during disputes, keeps clients informed, and creates a visual record of your craftsmanship.
Financial and project reports in seconds
Generate financial summaries, project analytics, and expense breakdowns with a few clicks. BuildCrux compiles your invoices, expenses, mileage, and project data into clear, exportable reports so you are always prepared for tax season, client meetings, or business reviews.
Manage your crew with roles and permissions
Add team members, assign roles, and control what each person can see and do inside your workspace. BuildCrux makes it easy to onboard employees and office staff with invite-based signup, so everyone has the access they need — and nothing they do not.
Track subs by trade and keep them close
Manage your subcontractor roster with trade-specific profiles, contact details, and project assignments. BuildCrux lets you invite subs directly, track which trades are on each job, and maintain a reliable network of specialists you can call on for any project.
Log every mile and maximize deductions
Track mileage between jobsites with automatic distance calculation powered by Google Maps. BuildCrux logs origin, destination, distance, and purpose for each trip so you capture every deductible mile without scribbling on receipts or forgetting at tax time.
Snap receipts and track every dollar
Upload receipt photos, categorize expenses, and tie them to specific projects so you know exactly where every dollar goes. BuildCrux replaces the shoebox of receipts with organized, searchable expense records that make tax prep and job costing painless.
AI credits that fit your workflow
BuildCrux uses a credit system for AI-powered features like blueprint estimates. Your subscription includes monthly credits, and you can purchase additional credit packs on demand — so you always have the firepower to bid fast when a big opportunity lands.
Export your data straight to QuickBooks
Export invoices, expenses, and financial data in QuickBooks-compatible formats so your bookkeeper or accountant can import everything without manual re-entry. BuildCrux bridges the gap between the field and the back office with clean, structured export files.
