The handyman day, on one board.
Every handyman job on one board the office runs and the trucks read: the morning built once, the emergency dropped in without re-sorting it, and Arrive tapped from the cab.

The estimate went out before the truck left the last driveway.
The work
The days the board has to hold.
01
Quick quotes
Estimates built from templates and stored photos, sent while the lead is still warm instead of three evenings later.
02
The day
Drag-and-drop jobs, and rescheduling the customer does online instead of by voicemail.
03
Collect
Deposits by card or ACH before the work, the invoice at the door after it.
Why it matters
The argument, in three rows.
A truck that’s driving isn’t earning
Jobs sequence by geography so the day spends its hours on work, not windshield. The gap in the afternoon is visible at 6:40, not at 2 p.m.
The day goes sideways on schedule
A burst line jumps the queue; the board reshuffles; every affected phone updates itself. The emergency is an insertion, not a meltdown.
The customer hears it first
Confirmations, delay notices, and status texts go out from the board, before the customer wonders, not after they call.
Handyman · Scheduling
The board is the day.
Software for the trades where the schedule is the business, and the record has to keep up with the truck.
The old way
What the whiteboard costs.
Jobs live in text threads
A schedule that lives in messages gets lost in messages.
Cold leads
An estimate that takes three days answers a customer who already hired someone.
The owner’s second shift
Evenings spent invoicing and reconciling are the ceiling on how big the book can get.
Up close
How it runs.
01
One Friday, start to finish
A cancellation at 9, an emergency at 11, a truck stuck at 2, and a board that ends the day full anyway, with every change logged and every customer told.
02
Capacity, planned ahead
Recurring visits place themselves, and the weeks ahead show how booked each day already is, so the quiet week gets a capacity push before it arrives.
03
The right tech, not just the next one
Skills and licenses match to the work, and multi-day installs hold their crew across the days.
Straight answers
What handyman teams ask.
What does Thorbis cost for handyman teams?
$99 per company per month, unlimited people, every module as it releases. Plus metered usage. $15 included each month. Nothing on this page is a tier.
Is scheduling a separate module?
No. Scheduling & dispatch is in Core, on the same record as the board, the estimate, and the invoice, so the handyman job never leaves the system it started in.
Is it built for handyman teams specifically?
The record is the same for every trade; what changes is the work on it. For handyman teams that means quick quotes, the day, and collect, which is the day this page is written around, and the sample rows on it are handyman jobs.
