Job management for Australian trades

Enquiry to invoice, without the double handling.

A customer's enquiry becomes the job, the quote, the booking, the certificate and the invoice. Nobody types anything twice. The office runs it on the computer, the crew runs it on their phones.

Free during the beta. No card needed to join.

What's included

Certificates built in

The QLD smoke alarm report and the QLD electrical Certificate of Compliance, filled in and signed on the phone. No forms add-on.

Works with no signal

The day's jobs stay on the phone. Notes, photos, the timer and payments are saved and sent when you're back in range.

Know what each job made

Hours, materials and purchase orders land on the job, so you see what it made, not a guess.

Free during the beta

Every feature, your whole team. What it costs after.

Follow one job

A smoke alarm upgrade, start to finish.

A demo business on the real app: Sarah is the customer, Dan is the tech. Every screen below is exactly what you and your customer would see.

01 · Enquiry

Take the jobs you want. Leave the rest.

Sarah fills in the enquiry form on your website. Like the look of it? One click makes her a client, makes the job and drafts the quote from your usual prices. Not for you? Decline it.

02 · Quote

Quote out the same day.

Lines come from your price book or a job template, and the GST is worked out for you. Give the customer options to choose from, and ask for a deposit when the job needs one.

Your logo, ABN and licence print on it once they're in your settings.

03 · Accepted

She says yes from her phone.

Sarah opens the link, reads the quote and accepts it with her name and signature. You see it on the job straight away, and she gets an email confirming what she accepted.

04 · Booked

Book it in, or let her pick from your times.

Drop the job on someone's week. Or send Sarah a few times that suit you and she picks one. She can only choose from what you offered.

05 · On site

Dan runs his day from his phone.

His jobs are in order with drive times. One tap opens a text to Sarah saying he's on the way, another starts the timer. Notes and photos go straight onto the job.

Up in the roof with no signal, the job is still on his phone. What he does is saved there and sent when he's back in range. What works offline.

06 · Certificate

The certificate's done before he packs up.

Alarm by alarm: where it is, photoelectric or ionisation, hardwired or battery, interconnected, working. He signs on the screen and creates it. It's filed on the job with your licence number for the state, and you send it to Sarah when you're ready.

07 · Invoice

Invoice from the quote. Chased for you.

The invoice comes straight off the accepted quote, with any deposit taken off. It goes to Sarah with the certificate attached. Overdue invoices get reminders at 7, 14 and 30 days overdue, which you can switch off, and invoices and payments go to Xero.

The office on the computer

Enquiries, quotes, the schedule, purchase orders, invoices and the money, all in one place.

The crew on their phones

The same app in the phone's browser on iPhone and Android. Add it to the home screen and it opens like any other app.

You decide who sees what

Techs see their jobs, not your costs or margins. Choose who can quote on site and who can take payments.

  • Add your logo, ABN, licences and bank details once.

Your data

Is my data safe?

Backed up

The database is backed up continuously, so it can be put back to any moment in the last seven days. We've practised doing it.

Who can see it

Your records are walled off from every other business in the database itself. Inside your business, each person's role decides what they see. Our staff look at your account only to give support or fix a fault, and every look is logged.

Where it's kept

The app, its database and the files you upload are in Sydney. Some services we use are overseas: emails are sent through Resend (Ireland), error reports go to Sentry (EU) with personal details removed, and maps come from Google. The privacy policy lists every one.

Take all of it with you

An owner can download everything from Settings: one zip file with every record as a spreadsheet, the photos and files, and every certificate and document exactly as it was sent.

If you leave

Close your account and it locks straight away, with nothing deleted. Delete your business and your data is deleted 30 days later, unless you change your mind first. Tax invoices and payments are kept read-only for 5 years, and certificates for 10.

If something's wrong

status.mayns.com.au says so. It runs outside our servers, so it stays up even if Mayns is down.

Free until the beta ends. Then A$49 a month, inc GST, for up to 10 people, and A$5 a month for each person after that. Prices may change, with notice.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes, while we're in beta. No card is needed to join. When the beta ends: Then A$49 a month, inc GST, for up to 10 people, and A$5 a month for each person after that. Prices may change, with notice.

Is there a contract?

No. Stop any time. An owner can download everything first, from Settings.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes, in the phone's browser. Add it to the home screen and it opens like an app. It isn't in the App Store or Google Play yet.

Do I need Xero?

No. If you use Xero, connect it: invoices, payments, supplier bills and contacts go across. QuickBooks is built but not switched on yet, and MYOB isn't built.

What works with no signal?

Once a phone has opened them with signal, today's and tomorrow's jobs (up to 15) stay on it, with their photo thumbnails, certificates and billing pages.

With no signal you can still clock on and off, mark on the way, arrived and done, add notes, tick tasks, take photos, record a payment and start a certificate. It's all saved on the phone and sent when you're back in range.

Some things need signal: a new job, a deposit invoice, a customer signing a variation, and the office money lists.

Do texts to customers cost extra?

No. A text opens your phone's own messages app with the words filled in, so it comes from your number and Mayns doesn't charge for it. If you connect your own text account, texts go through that instead.

Where is my data kept?

The app, its database and your files are in Sydney. More on your data, or read the privacy policy.
