Crew leads across job sites
General contractor dispatch software
General contractor dispatch software for builders running several job sites at once. Each crew lead's column shows which site they are on today, framing and finish work go to leads tagged for it, and photos and status from every site reach the office without a drive.
A short tour of the screens this page describes. It is filmed with our demo pest control company, and every trade runs on the same screens.

“We run every customer conversation through Smarfle. Texts, emails and reminders are in one place, our customers love paying with Apple Pay, and when we are busy or closed the text bot answers new leads for us.”
Who is on which site
The board lists each crew lead's sites for the day. When the drywall crew finishes early, move tomorrow's punch list job to today on the calendar, and the client gets the new date.
Dispatch boardTrade skills on crew leads
Tag leads for framing, finish carpentry or tile and require tags on services, so a demo crew is not sent to set cabinets without a warning.
Team and skillsSite visits in one loop
A superintendent checking five sites gets them sequenced by the routes page, with the drive between each.
Route optimizationProgress photos from the site
Crew leads post photos at rough-in and close-up and add notes on delays, so the office can update the owner without driving out.
Photo uploadsDays off and coverage
Approved time off shows before you assign, so a lead's vacation does not leave a site without anyone in charge.
