Why trades burn out

The admin isn't the business. But it runs the business.

Every trade owner we talked to described the same three problems. We built Foxspec to make them less of a problem - not to sell you another tool to manage.

01

You finished work at 5. You're still quoting at 9:30pm.

Quote requests arrive by email, by phone, by text. Each one gets a scrap of paper, a reminder you won't see, or a promise you won't keep.

02

A licence lapses on Wednesday. You find out Friday.

Insurance certificates, trade licences, CPD points, site SWMS - none of it is hard to track. It's hard to track in your head, on a Friday afternoon, with a client on the phone.

03

The crew leaves the yard. Half the tools don't.

You planned for a team of four. Two are ready, one is cleared but forgot his certs, one didn't know the address. The day starts an hour late - again.

What Foxspec does

Three things, handled calmly.

We don't replace your judgment or automate the business away. We clear the admin so you can do the work that actually pays.

How we compare

Built for the work, not against the competition.

We're not here to slag off the tool you're on now. But a lot of it wasn't designed for a trade business. Here's the difference in practice.

Tenders

Stop reading 200-page tender docs. Start winning work.

Upload a tender PDF set. Foxspec extracts rooms, products, quantities, and RFIs - trade-aware, not generic AI. You check the output; we do the reading.

Pricing

Pay for roles, not unused seats.

Owner, office, and crew tiers - each with the access that role needs. Tender credits are usage-based, so you never pay for work you didn't do.

We were losing two evenings a week to quotes and paperwork. Foxspec drafts the first pass - I just sanity-check and send. My compliance folder is finally the work folder, not a shoebox of PDFs.

Questions

The stuff we get asked at the pub.

Ghost Admin is our internal name for the AI layer. It drafts quotes from inbound emails using your saved rates, reads tender PDFs, bundles compliance packs, and flags licences nearing expiry. It never sends anything automatically - you approve every outbound. It assists; it does not replace your judgment.
No. You can start with one module - quoting, or compliance, or crew - and keep your existing tool running for the rest. Most businesses migrate over 2-3 months. We'll help you export from wherever you are now.
Role-based seats - Owner, Office, Crew - so you only pay for what a person actually uses. Tender extraction is usage-based credits (you don't pay unless you extract). Early-access cohorts get founder pricing locked in.
The workflows for tiling, fencing, roofing, and electrical are built out today. Plumbing, painting, and builders are next. Foxspec is trade-aware - the compliance docs, SWMS templates, and material trackers differ per trade.
Stored in AU (Sydney) region. You own it. You can export everything at any time. We never train external models on your business data, and we never share it with third parties outside the services you connect (Xero, email, etc).
Evidence capture, job details, and crew status work offline. Anything you create syncs when you're back in range. Built for sheds with tin roofs.
