Trades Sole-trader contractors

TradeIQ — from quote to paid, without the paperwork.

Build a priced quote in minutes, book it into your week, track the job through to done, then invoice straight out of the same screen — the full InvoiceIQ engine is built in, so you raise a professional, branded, VAT-ready invoice, track what's paid and chase what isn't. No subscription, no login, no data leaving your phone or laptop.

Everything TradeIQ surfaces, in one place.

£

Quotes that price themselves

Separate labour and materials, add a markup on materials that stays hidden from the customer, and TradeIQ totals it for you — sent, accepted or declined, each with its own number.

Your week, booked in

Drop accepted quotes straight onto a simple week view. See what's on today, what's coming, and what's still loose — no wall planner, no double-booking.

Jobs tracked to done

Every job moves scheduled → in progress → done, so nothing falls through the gap between "they said yes" and "it's finished".

🧾

Full invoicing, built in

Raise a professional, branded A4 invoice straight from a done job — line items pulled from the quote, your bank details, terms and sequential numbering, ready to print or save as PDF. The whole InvoiceIQ engine, inside TradeIQ.

£

Get paid, chase the rest

Record full or part-payments, watch outstanding and overdue by age, and email an invoice or a polite reminder in a tap — VAT switches on cleanly the day you register. The money side, handled.

Your data stays yours

Everything lives in the one file on your own device — no account, no cloud, no monthly fee. Back it up or move it whenever you like.

Built for one van, not a head office.

Most job software is priced and built for firms with an office manager. TradeIQ is for the sole trader and the two-person crew — the quote, the diary and the invoice in one place, sized for how you actually work.

A quote out before you've left the drive

Line items, day rate and materials markup remembered, so the next quote is mostly done before you start.

£

Know what you're owed

Money owed, unpaid invoices and win-rate on the front screen, with paid / outstanding / overdue and aging on the invoice log — the numbers a one-person business actually runs on.

InvoiceIQ, built right in

No second app to bolt on — TradeIQ raises your invoices itself, with the full InvoiceIQ engine and VAT compliance inside. Sold together, one file, same brand.

Quote to paid today — sharper for your trade next.

TradeIQ now runs the whole job-to-cash loop, invoicing included — the InvoiceIQ engine is built in, so there's nothing to bolt on. What comes next is shaped by the jobs you actually run.

Weather-aware & job profitability

An outdoor-work flag against the forecast, plus quoted-vs-actual margin once a job's done — so you learn what really pays.

TradeIQ keeps your own business records and now raises your invoices too. VAT stays off until you cross the £90k threshold, then switches on to produce invoices structured to match what HMRC requires of a VAT invoice — the "VAT invoice" title, your VAT number, tax point and per-line VAT. It remains a record-keeping and invoicing tool, not accounting or tax-filing software, and does not submit anything to HMRC; we structure your invoicing to current UK requirements but are not a tax or compliance authority — confirm your obligations with your accountant or HMRC.
