"This app is like having an office assistant onsite with access to all of my files and plans. It's the app that helps me build a business, not just houses."

How it works

You don't need office time anymore

Most construction software expects you to sit down after work and manually enter everything. Rafter works the way you already work — by texting.

"Log a note: homeowner wants outlets moved to island"

"Schedule inspection Thursday at 9am"

"Remind me to call the plumber tomorrow"

"Send the client an update on the kitchen"

It organizes your jobs, notes, schedules, and to-dos automatically.

Everything you need on the jobsite

Your business stops living in your head

Keep every detail in one place

No more forgotten promises, lost change orders, or searching your camera roll for that one photo. Tell it once — it remembers and brings it back when you need it.

No more "I thought that was included"

Build real estimates with clear allowances and assumptions. When scope changes, you have documentation. Fewer disputes, fewer unpaid extras.

Stop the constant check-ins

Every project gets a private client page showing progress, budget, expenses, and updates. Homeowners stay informed without blowing up your phone.

Know your numbers in real-time

Snap a receipt photo. The system reads it, categorizes it, and updates the budget automatically. No spreadsheets, no end-of-job surprises.

Your second brain on the jobsite

Track material pickups, inspections, and tasks. Get text reminders at the right time. Never drop the ball on a homeowner request again.

Tax time made simple

Every expense is organized and categorized automatically. Export to QuickBooks whenever you need. Your bookkeeper will thank you.

See it in action

A real dashboard, not a toy

Everything you text goes straight into an organized web dashboard. Here's what yours looks like.

FAQ

Do I need Telegram to start?

No. Start on the web with your cell number, verify the texted code, and get inside in about a minute. If you want Telegram for chat and reminders, you can connect it later.

Do I need to install anything else?

No. You can start from the web on your phone or laptop. The dashboard handles bigger tasks, and chat-based workflows are there when you want them.

Do I have to learn software?

No. You talk to it like a person. If you can send a text message and take a photo, you can run this.

Can my clients see updates?

Yes. Every project gets a private page your homeowner can view — progress, budget, photos, and updates. They stay informed without calling you.

Will this replace QuickBooks?

No. It organizes everything and exports cleanly to QuickBooks.

Is it secure?

Yes. Project data stays inside your account with controlled client visibility. Nothing is shared unless you choose to share it.
