← Not a builder?Business organisation for builders

Run every site. Not just this job.

The product is one board for every site: stages, jobs and who's on what. Job templates, site notices and ratings all come with it, as bonuses, not separate things to buy.

We're onboarding a limited number of builders a month while we get this right.

The site is the product

Every site is laid out in stages, each stage full of jobs, each job handed to a trade with the price agreed up front. Progress, photos and sign-off land on the job itself, not in your texts.

Build board
Stages left to right, jobs inside them, and links for the jobs that can't start until another is done.
Job offers
Offer a job to a business with a price and how it's charged. They accept, counter or pass.
The jobs board
Post the jobs you don't have a trade for. Approved businesses bid, you pick.
Sign-off and payment
Inspect finished work, sign it off or send it back, and record when it's paid.
Bonus

Everything else comes with it

None of this is sold separately. It's what you get once the site is organised.

Job templates

Start a job from a step list (measure, rough-in, fit-off) instead of writing it out every time.

Site notices

Skip bin moving Thursday, power off Tuesday. One notice reaches every trade on the site.

Ratings both ways

Rate each trade on time and quality after a paid job, and see how trades rate you before they take your jobs.

The jobs board

Post the jobs you don't have a trade for yet. Approved businesses bid, you pick.

Shared schedule

Trades on a site can see its dates so they plan around each other — switch it off for any project.

Photos and sign-off

Trades tick off steps and add photos. You inspect and sign off, or send it back with a note.

Who this is for

We want builders running real sites with licensed trades, not a way around hiring properly. That keeps the jobs board worth bidding on for the trades using it too.

  • An ABN.
  • A licence to build, where your projects need one.

Trades rate you back on every paid job, the same way you rate them. A run of fair dealing and paying on time is what keeps good trades bidding on your work.

Plans and pricing

Priced around how many sites you run and how big your team is, agreed in the free business review. Every plan is a tax-deductible business expense and comes with a 90 day, 100% money-back guarantee. Founder pricing locks your price in for good.

Reasons to buy

  • Run every site from one board, not a whiteboard and a group chat.
  • Founder pricing on whichever plan fits, locked in for good.
  • Agree the price before anyone starts, every time — in writing, on the job.
  • See how a trade's rated before you hand them your next job.
  • Stop driving to site just to see if the plumber's actually finished.

Reasons not to

  • You don't hold a licence or an ABN where the build needs one.
  • You're chasing trades for a single small job, not coordinating a site — the jobs board alone might be all you need.
  • We're still building. Some builder-specific tools may not exist yet, and founder pricing only covers what's on your plan today, not everything added later.
  • We're onboarding a limited number of builders a month while we get this right.

Questions people ask

What does it cost?
It depends on how many sites you run and how big your team is. Book a free business review and we'll tell you straight what it'd cost and whether it's worth it — every plan has a 90 day, 100% money-back guarantee either way.
I already run sites off a spreadsheet and a group chat.
That's normal, and it's usually the reason builders come to us. Handy replaces the whiteboard, the group chat and the spreadsheet with one board every trade on the site can see their part of.
Do my trades need to already be on Handy?
To send someone a job offer directly, yes — they need an account. If they're not on Handy yet, post the job to the jobs board instead and licensed trades who are already on it can bid on it.
What if it doesn't suit how I run a site?
We'll walk it through against one of your own current sites in the free business review, before you commit to anything.
How long does it take to get set up?
As fast as a week. We book your free business review within one to two weeks, then lay out your first site together — most builders are running within one to four weeks.
Do I need to migrate every site I'm running?
No. Start with what's active right now, and add older sites later only if you want the history.

We look at how you're running your sites now, and tell you straight whether Handy is worth it for you — and if so, which plan actually fits. No cost, no obligation.
