Spanner turns a finished job into a paid invoice in about 30 seconds. Add the customer, tap the parts and labour, send by text, email or WhatsApp - with a card payment link attached. Quotes, online bookings and tax handled too. Free for your first 5 invoices.
Spanner is an invoicing app for tradies. Mechanics, plumbers, sparkies, builders.
The thing that kicked it off: [your actual story here — one or two sentences, a specific person and a specific moment. This is the only part I can't write for you, and it's the part people will actually read].
Most of the tradies I talked to were invoicing at night, from the couch, in Notes or a spreadsheet. Some had thousands of dollars sitting unsent because writing it up at 9pm is the last thing you want to do. So the whole app is built around doing it on site, before you drive off — pick the customer, tap the parts and labour, send it. Takes about 30 seconds.
Each invoice can carry a card payment link, so a lot of people get paid in the driveway instead of chasing it for three weeks. Quotes work the same way: send a link, customer taps approve or decline, you get a notification. There's online booking too, and the job form changes depending on your trade — mechanics get rego and vehicle fields, everyone else gets a clean general form.
Works in Australia, the US, UK, NZ and Canada with the right tax and currency. iOS, Android, web.
Free for 5 invoices, no time limit, no card. $9.99/mo after that for unlimited, no watermark, your logo, and the earnings screen.
Still plenty missing. No accounting sync ye are the two I get asked about most andthey're next.
If you invoice for a living, I'd genuinely like to know what's stopping you switching from whatever you use now. Happy to answer anything.
