CostPerJob vs a spreadsheet.
A spreadsheet tracks whatever you type. It is free, local, and only as good as the Sunday-night update.
CostPerJob keeps the bid and the costs on the same job so variance is not a formula you rebuild.
Buy them instead if…
- · You have quiet weeks and you actually update the sheet.
- · You want a file you own, not software.
- · One tab is still honest for your volume.
Start here if…
- · The sheet slipped the week you got busy.
- · You want estimate vs actual on one job without maintaining formulas.
- · You want Free history as the last 10 closed cards, then ranked history on Pro.
- Their price: Spreadsheets are usually $0 plus your time. No competitor list price to paste.
- CostPerJob Free: 10 open jobs — estimate → log → scorecard. History is the last 10 closed cards. Pro is $29/mo for ranked history.
- QuickBooks: not shipped · CSV today.
- Receipt OCR is not a CostPerJob feature. You type the ticket.
- Who it’s for: Owner-run work — not a crew platform. We don’t sell crews, seats, or a scheduler.
