For hardscape contractors · Early access
Know which jobs made you money.
Grade is the margin instrument for hardscape work: quoting, scheduling, invoicing, and field capture built around one deterministic dollar engine — so the number you quoted, the number you invoiced, and the margin you actually made are the same number, traced end to end.
Free, from one of your own past jobs. Early access is founder-onboarded — there's no self-serve signup.
One page of your own numbers.
Send one past job — the quote, what you paid for materials and labor, what you invoiced. You get back one page: what that job actually made you, computed the way Grade computes every job. If it says you don't need Grade, that's what it says.
One engine authors every dollar.
Estimates, actuals, prices, invoice lines, margins, and the cash forecast all trace to a single cents-exact engine. Screens can't disagree, because there is only one place numbers come from.
▸The dollar engine
Every cost is a component — metered, fixed, or derived — with estimate and actual on the same line, so variance is per-line and automatic the moment a real cost lands. Margin by job, worst-first, and a 13-week cash forecast that names the low-water week.
▸Snap a receipt
Capture a receipt from the truck — Grade reads the vendor, amount, and date off the photo — and it lands against the job's costs, not in a shoebox. Anything the system can't code confidently drops into an exceptions inbox for a one-tap decision, and the job's live margin moves the moment real costs land.
▸Quote to margin
Quotes are priced from cost components and a target margin — one deterministic function, no gut-feel markup. The same components follow the job through scheduling, invoicing (deposit + balance reconciled by construction), and AR aging, so every finished job answers one question: did it make you money?
