What Stringline does

Four parts, and the job moves through all of them

A lead becomes a quote, the quote becomes the invoice, and the invoice gets paid. What is in each one is below.

01

Leads

Your enquiry form goes on your own website, and what the customer typed lands on your board. Accepting a lead matches it to a customer and a property, so the same person enquiring twice stays one customer.

In the boxLeads
On your site
Link, iframe or script
No website yet
A hosted page
Where work comes from
Named and counted

The form can price itself too: the customer picks the work and the lead arrives as a priced draft quote.

02

Quotes

Tap your measurements in on site and the quantities and the price comes from your own price book. Your customer opens the quote and accepts it, and you see the moment it was opened.

In the boxQuotes
Your price book
Read out of your old quotes
A floor plan
Read into rooms you check
Rates and margins
In your trade's own terms
Extra work
Agreed before it is done
Rates against the clock
Named when one runs light

Charges, discounts and templates go on without being asked for.

03

Invoices

The invoice is built from the quote the customer accepted, plus the extra work they agreed to, less whatever has already been billed. Nothing is typed in again.

In the boxInvoices
Deposit
Raised the moment they accept
Progress claims
By stage, off the quote
Final
The remainder, worked out
Your numbering
Kept, into Xero and out

Your supplier's invoice goes on the job too, so what you paid sits beside what you quoted.

04

Getting paid

Your bank details are on the invoice, and a direct credit is recorded against it in part or in full. Connect Stripe and your customer can pay by card from the invoice link, straight into your own account.

In the boxGetting paid
Card on the invoice
Your Stripe, your money
Xero
Invoices out, payments back
Overdue
Chased on your schedule

A payment reconciled in Xero marks it paid here, and the chasing stops.

The screens

Your price book, your quotes, your week

Set up from the quotes you have already sent, so your prices are your own from the first job.

The crew board: a week across, one row per person, with jobs drawn as blocks over the days they run.
The week, by person. Drag a job to move it.

Your trade

Pick yours and see how it prices

A painter measures rooms, a fencer measures runs, a stopper counts sheets, a sparky counts points. The words change and the sum underneath is the same, so every one of these has a page showing how its own work gets measured and priced.

Pricing

One plan, one price, and everyone on your crew is in it

Try it free for 14 days. After that it is a flat monthly rate for your whole crew, invoiced to you like anything else. Put another person on and the bill does not move.
