Your business runs itself
while you're on the tools.

Sound familiar?

You're brilliant at the trade. The admin is the part that's killing you.

Missed calls are missed money. Quotes go cold. Invoices slip. And you're doing paperwork at 9pm when you should be done for the day.

Calls you can't answer

Hands in a wall cavity, phone ringing in the ute. Every missed call is a job that goes to the next bloke who picks up.

Quotes & invoices that slip

The quote you meant to send. The invoice from three weeks ago. Money sitting in a notebook instead of your bank account.

Admin that eats your nights

Scheduling, texting customers your ETA, tracking who's doing what. The 2 hours of unpaid office work after a 10-hour day.

What it does

One app for the whole job — first call to final invoice

Empowered Tradie handles the things that actually run your business, so you're not juggling five apps and a notebook — and you decide how much it does for you.

🤖 Win work

Never miss a job — it texts back the calls you can't take

Hands in a wall cavity? The moment you miss a call, Empowered Tradie texts the customer straight back so the lead doesn't walk. Its voice agent can take the details, book the job and draft the quote, and even get the customer to snap a photo so you know what you're walking into. Nothing fires off behind your back — set call handling to Off, Draft or Autopilot, and every quote waits for your say-so.

  • AI texts back missed calls — answers 24/7, even mid-job, so no lead goes cold.
  • Photos up front — the customer's pics land on the job, so you bring the right gear and parts.
  • You stay in control — listen back to any call, drafts and quotes wait for your tap.
  • Books into your calendar around jobs you've already got.

📍 Run the day

Smart scheduling that drives itself

Empowered Tradie knows where you are and what's next. It optimises your run, fires off an "on my way" ETA text with a live tracking link, and switches to a big-button driving mode behind the wheel. Leave ETA texts on Autopilot, or keep them on Draft so you tap send.

  • Automatic "on my way" texts the moment you leave for a job.
  • Route optimisation orders your day to cut driving and fuel.
  • Running late? One tap reshuffles the day and tells everyone.

Quote on site, invoice in a tap, paid faster

Build a quote standing in the customer's kitchen. Turn it into an invoice with one tap when the job's done. Send a pay-now link so customers pay by card on the spot, and the books sync straight to Xero or MYOB. Money is always capped — the app never auto-charges a customer.

  • Pay-now links — tap-to-pay by card, links they can't lose.
  • GST handled automatically on every quote and invoice.
  • Syncs to your accountant — Xero & MYOB, no double entry.

🧰 Know your gear

Stock, suppliers & an equipment register that nags you, not the other way round

Track what's on the van and what's run low. Keep your suppliers — with trade account numbers — a tap away. And log every tool you own or hire in an equipment register, so you know what's where and what's due back.

  • Stock & suppliers — trade account numbers saved, ready to reorder.
  • Equipment register — owned and hired gear in one place, with return dates.
  • Restock reminders on your route — "grab fittings, the supplier's 2 min off your run."

👷 Grow the crew

Bring on apprentices — without handing over the keys

Invite your apprentice with a code and they see only what they need: their assigned jobs, the address, what to do. No customer numbers, no dollar figures, no leads. Schedule the crew with drive-time built in, so the day actually fits — and you stay in control of the business.

  • Role-based access — apprentices never see pricing or contacts.
  • Drive-time scheduling & auto-assign jobs, with supply runs straight to their phone.
  • They text you, not the customer — arrivals route to the supervisor.

It's not just for you

The apprentice wins too — not just the boss

Bringing on a crew shouldn't mean more hand-holding for you and more confusion for them. Empowered Tradie gives both sides a clearer day — so jobs run smoother for everyone on the van.

TYFor the apprentice

A clear day, no guessing

Show up, open the app, and know exactly where to go and what to do — no chasing the boss for the address or the job sheet.

  • Only their jobs — the address and what to do, nothing to wade through.
  • Supply runs pushed to their phone — what to grab and where, on the way.
  • Text the supervisor, not the customer — less pressure, no awkward calls.
  • Get productive faster — learn the ropes by doing, and build real confidence.
DGFor the boss

Delegate without handing over the keys

Put work on the crew and trust the day fits together — without giving away your customer list or your pricing.

  • Customer contacts & pricing stay yours — delegate the job, not the business.
  • The day actually fits — drive-time scheduling lays out a run that works.
  • No constant hand-holding — they've got the brief, you've got your hands free.
  • Room to grow — bring on more hands and the business can scale with you.
You both win: smoother jobs, fewer "where do I go, what do I do" calls, everyone finishes on time — because the whole crew is working off one live picture.
You're always in control · why it's called Empowered

Off, Draft or Autopilot — on every single feature

Other apps either do nothing or quietly run wild. Empowered Tradie gives you a dial on everything it can do. Nothing reaches a customer without your say-so, and the app never auto-charges anyone. You move each feature up the ladder only when you're ready.

● Off

It does nothing

The feature stays parked until you want it. Everything starts here — no surprises, no messages going out behind your back.

✎ Draft

It does the work, you hit send

The app drafts the text, the quote, the ETA — and waits. You read it, tweak it, and tap send. Nothing leaves your phone until you say so.

⚡ Autopilot

It handles it for you

Once you trust it, let it run — missed-call texts, "on my way" ETAs, the lot. Still capped: the app never charges a customer's card on its own.

Off Draft Autopilot Move at your own pace — feature by feature.

Money is always capped: the app never auto-charges a customer. It can draft the invoice and send a pay-now link — the customer still chooses to pay. Your trade, empowered — never out of your hands.

How it works

Up and running in an afternoon

No IT person. No setup fee. No manual. Tell it your trade and a guided walkthrough hand-holds each feature on — everything starts Off or Draft, so you switch things up the ladder only when you're ready.

Plumber, sparky, chippie, tiler — the app sets up your job types, quote templates and pricing to match.

Walkthroughs turn each feature on

Guided setup hand-holds you through it — connect your number, switch on missed-call text-back, ETA texts and more, each starting on Off or Draft.

Go to work

Jobs land in your day, customers get their texts, invoices get paid. Nudge a feature to Autopilot when you trust it. You just do the trade.

Fair questions

The stuff you're actually wondering

Will the app do things behind my back?
Never. Every feature has three settings — Off, Draft or Autopilot. On Off it does nothing; on Draft it does the work and waits for you to hit send; on Autopilot it runs only because you moved it there. Nothing reaches a customer without your say-so, and the app never auto-charges anyone's card.
Will it sound like a robot to my customers?
No. When you miss a call it texts the customer back and can talk naturally, taking the details like a good receptionist would. You can listen back to every call, and nothing gets locked in until you've approved it — quotes are drafted for you to check, not fired off behind your back.
Do I need a new phone number?
Nope — keep the number you've always had. The calls you can't get to roll through to the agent, so your regulars still reach you the same way.
I'm not techy. Is it hard to set up?
If you can use your phone, you can use this. You're up and running in an afternoon — pick your trade, the app sets itself up, and you're away. No manual, no IT bloke required.
Can my apprentice see my prices and customers?
Only what you let them. Apprentices see their assigned jobs and the address — no dollar figures, no customer phone numbers, no leads. You stay in control of the business side.
What if I want to leave — do I lose everything?
It's month to month with no lock-in contract, and your data is yours — export your jobs, customers and invoices any time. Leave whenever you want and take your records with you.
What's it going to cost me?
From $29/month — less than one missed job. There's a free 30-day trial so you can see it pay for itself before you hand over a card.
