Built from the cab, not a boardroom.

Job Holster was not dreamed up in an office. It was built from the cab, on real job sites. Our founder runs an excavation company, and for years his system was text threads, a notebook on the dash, and memory.

Leads piled up in those threads. Estimates slipped, callbacks got missed, and good jobs died in the scroll. He needed a dead-simple way to keep track of work. It did not exist, so he built it.

Every part of the app comes from that jobsite reality. No bloated software, no complicated setup. Just a simple way to keep every job, note, and follow-up within reach.

Your whole week, on one screen.

Open the app and every job is right there. Drag work from lead to paid, tap to call or text a customer, and see exactly what needs you today.

  • Leads, bids, and active jobs in one job list
  • Call, text, or map a customer in one tap
  • Photos, notes, and voice memos on every job

Paste a text. Get a tracked job.

Other apps make you retype everything into forms. Job Holster reads a customer text, or anything you share to the app, and does the data entry for you.

Share or paste it in. AI reads the text, and Job Holster fills in the name, phone, address, job details, tags, and status for you. Review everything before you save. The original message stays with the job.

Use QuickBooks? Connect it once, then send any customer you choose in one tap. Job Holster keeps its own estimates and invoices, and it never touches your QuickBooks books.

Customer calls instead of texting? Do what our founder does on every call for his excavation company. End it with: “Could you text this number your name, address, phone, and a quick note on what you need?” Now the lead lands as a text, ready to capture.

Bid it. Win it. Bill it.

Build an estimate on the job, get it signed on your phone, and turn the won estimate into an invoice. Add a change order the minute the job changes. Send any of them as a PDF by text or email.

Estimates

Line items, saved items, tax optional, your letterhead, English or Spanish per document.

Change orders

The contract total your customer actually reads, credits and additions, one tap.

Invoices

Built from the estimate, sent as a PDF, deposits marked received when the cash or check comes in.

What's inside

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

One simple app that keeps every lead, bid, photo, and follow-up on the job it belongs to.

Your jobs, your stages

Drag every job from new lead to paid through stages that match how you run work.

Photos, notes and voice memos

Everything stays with the customer it belongs to. Record a voice memo and turn it into a readable note. Snap before-and-after photos and share a photo report with your name on it.

Works offline. Syncs everywhere.

No service on site? Keep working with saved jobs, photos, and voice memos. Changes sync when you reconnect. Let syncing finish before moving to a new device.

Calendar

See every job and reminder on one calendar, by month, week, or day. Drag a job to another day when plans change.

Field-tested every day

Simple. Reliable. No fluff.

No crew location tracking, no 200-step setup, no per-seat math. Job tracking, estimates, and invoices that stay out of your way.

Job request form

Share a link or QR code. Your customer fills out their own request and it lands in your list.

English or Spanish

Use the app in either language, whichever works for your crew.

Made by people who run the equipment.

Job Holster comes straight off the jobsite. These are real days in the field, tracked in the app you can hold in one hand.
