I’m making PanePilot, an app for scheduling jobs, quoting, invoicing, field work and paying workers at an Australian window-cleaning business. It’s for an owner-operator who does most of the jobs personally, with occasional workers, and it’s a web app that works on a phone.

What’s built today covers the owner’s side: customers and their properties, per-pane quotes, recurring services that book visits onto a calendar, and invoices sent by email. Workers have a small app of their own for their visits and their hours, and the owner approves their time and records their pay each week.
