Estimating, scheduling, field hours, invoicing, and everything in between — so it all lives in one system instead of a pile of spreadsheets and apps.
Most tools give a contractor too little or pile on too much. Cadeno flows through the job from start to finish, guiding your crew along the way — a tool that helps get the work done, not a bloated system that everyone dreads learning. The estimate feeds procurement, the schedule drives the work, and the logged hours become the invoice — with AI woven through it, growing into a project manager that watches the whole job for you.
Build takeoffs by cost code, or import an existing estimate from the software you're using now.
Turn the job into a Gantt with task dependencies, holiday calendars, and a live critical path.
Crews log time and receipts from their phones — coded to the right job and cost code automatically.
Labour, materials, and change orders roll up by billing period — coded, totalled, and ready to bill with your markup and tax.
Drag a task and everything downstream moves with it — automatically. Cadeno handles every dependency type (finish-to-start, start-to-start, lag, and lead), tracks the critical path as it shifts, and counts only real working days using regional holiday calendars. Change one thing and the whole schedule re-solves itself, the way a real plan should.
Markup flows into the tax base the way it should, so your grand total matches to the cent.
Logged hours meet the estimate in real time, with a warning before a cost code goes over.
Draft, approve, and fold into the revised contract — pending ones don't count until they're signed off.
Your accountant's workflow, built in: code the period, roll up labour + materials + change orders, then send the invoice.
Hours, receipts, line items, and budgets all speak the same cost-code language — so a number on an invoice can always be traced back to a worker, a day, and a task.
A dead-simple time clock built for a phone in a work glove — not a desktop in an office. Tap in, log the cost code, snap a receipt — done before the glove comes off.
Runs in any phone browser — no app store, no updates to push, no IT. Crews are logging time in minutes.
Fuel, materials, parking — photographed and coded to the job before they're lost in a truck console.
Hours flow into timesheet review with heat strips, totals, and one-click approval for the office.
Every plan is per organization, plus $6/user per month. Start on one tier and move up when you're ready — your data comes with you.
Standalone time-tracking apps bill per user and only do time — here the clock feeds your job costing directly.
