General Contractor

Estimates, invoices, and payments built for the way GCs actually work.

You manage the entire project. Your software should keep up.

General contracting is coordination. You are managing subs, sourcing materials, keeping the client informed, and making sure the numbers work — all at the same time. The last thing you need is software that slows you down or makes you look unprofessional.

Jobkore was built by a licensed general contractor who needed something better. Not a project management suite with 50 features you will never touch. Not a generic invoicing app that does not understand how construction works. Just the tools you actually use — estimates, invoices, change orders, and payments — done right.

Estimates that match how you bid

GC estimates are not simple. You are breaking scope across multiple trades, adding allowances, including material specs, and building in contingency. Jobkore lets you organize estimates into sections with line items, descriptions, quantities, and rates — so your client sees exactly what they are paying for.

Sections let you separate demo, framing, electrical, plumbing, finish work — whatever the job calls for. Clients can see the full scope without a wall of text, and you can show the level of detail that wins jobs over the guy who sends a one-line number on a napkin.

Change orders with a paper trail

Scope changes on every job. The client wants to move a wall, add recessed lighting, upgrade the countertops. Without a system, those changes turn into arguments about what was agreed to and who owes what.

Jobkore handles change orders as separate documents tied to the original estimate. Each one gets its own approval, its own signature, and its own invoice. When the client signs off, there is no ambiguity. When it is time to bill, the change order invoice is already built.

Hank AI organizes the walkthrough

After a site visit, you have notes on your phone, photos of the existing conditions, maybe a PDF from an architect. Hank reads all of it and organizes everything into structured estimate sections and line items. You review, add your pricing, and send.

For a GC running multiple bids at once, this cuts estimate turnaround from hours to minutes. The faster you get a professional estimate in front of a client, the better your chances of winning the job.

Invoice by phase, get paid online

Most GC projects are not one-and-done invoices. You bill a deposit, then progress payments at milestones, then a final. Jobkore lets you create multiple invoices against the same estimate, track what has been billed versus what is outstanding, and collect payments online through Stripe.

Your clients pay with a credit card or bank transfer from a link you send them. No chasing checks. No "it is in the mail." Stripe handles the processing at their standard rate — Jobkore charges zero additional fees on top.

One dashboard for everything

Revenue this month, outstanding balances, overdue invoices, estimates waiting for approval — all in one place. You know exactly where your business stands without digging through spreadsheets or logging into three different apps.
