Rev C on site, Rev D in your inbox. Lumber orders over the phone. Extras framed and forgotten.
You didn’t start a framing company to shuffle paper. BuildBox puts it all in one place.

The Platform

Three things every contractor
needs. One system.

Your money, your jobs, and your people — connected, so a decision made in one place shows up everywhere it matters.

Your Money

Find out if you’re making money while it still matters.

Lumber prices move, labour runs long, and by the time the books close the crew is three jobs down the road. BuildBox tracks your revenue, profit, and overhead against real targets as the work happens, so you know whether a job is making money while your crew is still standing on it.

Financial Dashboard

One screen that shows the financial health of your business. Revenue, profit, and targets rolled up into a single view — no digging through spreadsheets, no chasing your bookkeeper.

Financial Goal Setting

Set revenue and profit targets at any time of year. BuildBox tracks your actuals against them, so you know if you’re ahead, behind, or on pace — instead of finding out at tax time.

Revenue & Profit Tracking

See revenue and profit in real time, tracked against your targets. Know where the business stands each month — not after year end.

Overhead Budget

Budget your fixed costs — trucks, insurance, office, salaries — and see how much your projects need to generate to cover them. Project profit means nothing if overhead eats it first.

Forecast Your P&L

A full financial model with P&L forecasting, so you know where the business is headed — not just where the projects are.

Your Jobs

Every job, run the same way. Your way.

Every builder hands you drawings a different way — and half the disputes start with a crew framing off the wrong revision. BuildBox gives you your own system: the current set, the RFIs, and the paper trail on every job, no matter which GC is running it.

Project Dashboard

A live overview of every active project in one place. Check on all your jobs at a glance without opening each one individually.

Drawings

Upload project drawings so your field team always builds from the most recent set. No more emailing PDFs back and forth or working off outdated sheets.

RFIs

Create, send, and track RFIs in a structured, professional format — with a fully exportable log that keeps a paper trail on every question sent to the project team.

Change Orders

Build and track Change Orders so you never miss an extra. Every detail logged and exportable — helping you get paid for all the additional work you’re asked to do on site.

Purchase Orders

Issue and track POs directly in BuildBox. Keep commitments organized with a record of what you’ve ordered, from who, and at what cost.

Submittals

Manage your submittal register and track submission and approval status — with an exportable log for GC coordination and your own records.

Punch Lists

Photo-first deficiency tracking and close-out. Take a picture — Alfred names it, describes it, and logs it for trade completion and GC approval.

Quick Jobs

Service work or maintenance that doesn’t need drawings or specs? Quick Jobs creates a job that’s tracked and accounted for just like your larger projects.

Document Management

Central storage for contracts, specs, correspondence, photos — everything tied to a job. No more hunting through email or shared drives.

Your People

The crew stays aligned — without going through you.

Your lead hand needs the revised layout, the builder wants a schedule update, and both of them call you. BuildBox gives your crews and office a shared system, so the site keeps moving even when you’re not standing on it.

Task Management

Create, track, and assign tasks per project — and see everything you own across all projects in My Tasks. Everyone knows what they’re responsible for and when it’s due.

Daily Logs

Daily site reports that replace paper logs and end-of-day text threads. Site activity, crew info, and progress — captured on every project, every day.

Alfred AI

Your built-in AI assistant. Ask about your projects, draft RFIs, query the Code. Alfred works with your account’s data — the more you use BuildBox, the more useful he becomes.

Activity Tracking

Real-time alerts when tasks are updated, documents are uploaded, or items need attention — keeping everyone informed without the email bombing.

Meet Alfred

The first hire that costs $0/hour and never calls in sick.

Alfred is BuildBox’s built-in AI assistant, and he already knows your business — because he works with the data that lives in your account. Every project you run, every document you upload, every task you log makes him sharper.

  • Ask anything about your projects — status, history, what's outstanding, what's overdue.
  • Draft RFIs in seconds instead of typing them from scratch at 9pm.
  • Query the building Code right from the platform — no more tab-hopping.
  • Auto-log punch list items — snap a photo and Alfred names, describes, and files it.

Which drawing set is current for the Marine Drive duplex?
A-201 Rev C, uploaded Tuesday. Rev B is archived — two beam sizes changed on Level 2. Your lead hand hasn’t opened Rev C yet. Want me to flag it to him?
Yes — and log a change order for the extra blocking the builder asked for.
Flagged. And CO-006 is started: additional blocking on Level 2, per builder request. Add your hours and material and it’s ready to send.

How It Works

Live on a real job
by the end of your first call.

No lengthy implementation. No IT setup. Getting started takes less than 20 minutes.

01

Book a Demo

Jump on a 20-minute call with Brenden. He’ll walk you through the platform, answer your questions, and help you decide if BuildBox is the right fit. No pitch, no pressure — just a walkthrough.

02

Set Up Your First Project

During your onboarding call, you’ll create your first real project together. Upload your drawings, set your financial targets, and invite your team. You’ll leave the call with BuildBox actually running on a live job.

03

Run Every Job the Same Way

From that point forward, every project runs through one consistent system — your system. Same process, same documentation, same financial visibility, regardless of who the client is.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Book a demo and ask Brenden directly.

Drawings are versioned in the project, so the current set is the only set the field sees. Ask Alfred which revision is live before the first cut.
Yes. POs record what you ordered, from who, and at what cost, filed to the job. Forwarded supplier paperwork stores with the project documents.
No, and that is the point. You run the same RFIs, change orders, and daily logs on every job, whichever builder is above you.
BuildBox is built specifically for trade contractors — electricians, framers, plumbers, drywall, HVAC, concrete, and more. Most construction software is designed for general contractors and adapted down for the trades. We started from scratch with the trades in mind. The project management module, documentation workflows, and financial tracking are all structured around how subtrades actually manage their work.
Yes — if a GC requires you to use their platform for specific submissions, that won’t change. But BuildBox gives you your own system to run your business regardless of what happens above you. You manage your projects, your team, and your financials the same way on every job. You’re no longer starting from scratch on every new GC relationship.
Most well-known construction platforms are built for large commercial GCs — and priced like it, at $20,000–$100,000+ per year — or for residential home builders. Neither was designed for a trade contractor running 3–15 projects at a time who needs their own financial visibility, not just access to the GC’s portal. BuildBox is purpose-built for the trades: simpler, more affordable, and connected to your company financials from day one.
Most contractors have their first project live within one business day. Your onboarding call with Brenden is 20 minutes — you’ll leave with a real project created, your drawings uploaded, your financial targets set, and at least one team member invited. There’s no lengthy implementation or IT setup required.
Yes. No long-term contracts, no cancellation fees. BuildBox is month-to-month. If it’s not working for you, you can cancel at any time. We’d rather earn your subscription every month than lock you in.

Your next job could stand as straight as your walls.
