Already running on real jobs

Every item here is shipped and in use today — the scope, payment, proof, review, and payout workflow contractors and clients run on live jobs.

Job Management

6

AI-powered job structuring

Describe the job in plain English and turn it into editable deposits, work phases, amounts, durations, and review checkpoints.

  • Turn a plain-English description into a structured draft
  • Deposits, phases, amounts, and checkpoints come back editable
  • Adjust anything before the job is sent

Manual job structuring

Prefer to build the job yourself? Contractors can manually add and edit deposits, work phases, amounts, durations, and proof requirements before sending.

  • Build the job by hand without using AI
  • Add and order deposits and work phases yourself
  • Set amounts, durations, and proof requirements per phase

Change orders

Scope changed mid-job? Create change orders with photos and get client approval. Everything documented.

  • Capture mid-job scope changes with photos and amounts
  • The client approves the change before it counts
  • Every change stays on the job record

Edit jobs after creation

Made a mistake? Edit job details, client info, and phases even after sending. Active jobs have limited editing to protect financial terms.

  • Fix job details, client info, and phases after sending
  • Active jobs limit edits that touch financial terms
  • Changes stay on the auditable job record

Save jobs as draft

Start structuring a job and save it without sending. Come back later to add client details and send when ready.

  • Structure a job and save it without sending
  • Come back to add client details later
  • Draft jobs are free

Pause & resume jobs

Life happens. Pause jobs when needed, resume when ready. Timeline adjusts automatically.

  • Pause a job when work stops, resume when it restarts
  • The timeline adjusts automatically
  • No need to rebuild the job

Payments

8

Phase-based payments

Each work phase has its own collection, review, and payout path, so the job does not wait on one final invoice.

  • Each phase collects, reviews, and pays out on its own
  • The job never waits on a single final invoice
  • Money moves step by step as work is approved

Client authorization flow

Clients authorize payment before work begins. Card on file, terms agreed, commitment secured.

  • Clients authorize the full payment path before work begins
  • Card on file and terms agreed up front
  • No work starts until the job is authorized

72-hour auto-approve

No response from client? Work gets auto-approved after 72 hours. No more ghosting.

  • No client response auto-approves the phase after 72 hours
  • Keeps payout moving when a client goes quiet
  • The countdown is visible to both sides

Direct bank payouts

Payments go straight to your bank. Payout timing improves as you build your track record.

  • Collected funds pay out straight to your bank account
  • Payout timing improves as your track record grows
  • Runs on Stripe payout rails

Multi-currency support

Accept payments in EUR, USD, or GBP. Currency is set at job creation based on your Stripe account.

  • Accept payments in EUR, USD, or GBP
  • Currency is set at job creation from your Stripe account
  • One job runs in one currency end to end

Deposit handling

Collect material deposits before ordering. Protected with the same verification checks and documentation as regular phases.

  • Collect material deposits before ordering starts
  • Same verification and documentation as regular phases
  • Deposit status is tracked on the job

Client payment schedule review

Clients review the scope, deposits, work phases, change-order rules, and collection plan before authorizing the job.

  • Clients see scope, deposits, phases, and change rules first
  • The full collection plan is visible before authorizing
  • No surprise charges once work begins

Bank transfer payments

Eligible US jobs can use bank transfers as a lower-fee payment rail while keeping the same deposits, work phases, authorization, proof, review, and payout record.

  • Lower-fee payment option for eligible US jobs
  • Bank-transfer work phases must clear before that phase starts
  • Same deposits, work phases, proof, review, and payout record as card-backed jobs

Authentication

3

Verification codes

Two-factor protection on all payments. Clients verify with one-time codes before money moves.

  • One-time codes confirm the person before money moves
  • Two-factor protection on sensitive payment actions
  • Applies on both the contractor and client sides

Bank authentication (3D Secure / SCA)

When a card issuer asks for extra confirmation, PhaseContract keeps the payment in the right retry or verification flow instead of treating it like a normal failure.

  • Handles issuer step-up checks without dropping the payment
  • Keeps the charge in the right retry or verification path
  • A verification prompt is not treated as a hard failure

Secure link access

Clients open job links from email or SMS without making a password first. Access stays tied to the job and verification steps.

  • Clients open the job from an email or SMS link
  • No password required to start reviewing
  • Access stays tied to the job and its verification steps

Documentation

2

Work-phase proof

Photos, files, notes, and required evidence stay attached to the exact work phase the client is reviewing.

  • Photos, files, and notes attach to the exact phase under review
  • Required evidence travels with the work, not a separate folder
  • Proof stays part of the payment record

Client review & rework requests

Submitted work phases move through approve, request-changes, reminder, and auto-approve paths before payout releases.

  • Clients approve, request changes, or let it auto-approve
  • Reminders nudge a stalled review
  • Payout releases only after the phase clears review

Platform

1

Mobile first design

Built for contractors on the go. Create jobs, approve payments, and manage everything from your phone.

  • Create jobs, approve work, and manage payments from a phone
  • Built for contractors working on the jobsite

Trust & Reputation

1

Fair cancellation flow

Either side can request cancellation, respond, withdraw, finish the current phase, or let the 3-day response window resolve the request under the published rules.

  • Either side can request cancellation under published rules
  • Respond, withdraw, or finish the current phase
  • A 3-day window resolves an unanswered request

Team Features

1

Foreman assignment and jobsite handoff

Owners can assign a foreman to field work while owner-only account, send, payout, and sensitive job decisions stay protected.

  • Assign a foreman to the jobsite workflow
  • Foremen can see assigned jobs, start due phases, upload proof, and draft field changes
  • Owner review stays in front of sensitive sends, pauses, cancellations, and money-critical decisions
