Bit & GrainBit & Grain

Built for the crew of five, not the fleet of fifty.

Know what you made on every job.

Most job software tracks what you billed. Bit & Grain shows what you kept: every receipt, hour, and mile lands on the job it belongs to, so the profit answer is just there, and your next bid starts from real numbers. $29/mo flat, AI included.

The job's done. Do you know, or do you guess?

Scattered everywhere

The business lives in a notes app, a whiteboard, and a pile of receipts on the dash.

Nights on paperwork

Quotes go out slow, invoices go out late, and the office work eats your evenings.

Priced for the big guys

The software that could fix it is built for fifty-truck fleets: per seat, AI extra, and the profit answer locked in a $199 tier.

We think that's backwards. A five-person crew deserves the same visibility the big outfits have, without the enterprise price tag. Bit & Grain was built by a systems engineer who spent 25 years building those systems for Cisco and AWS, and now builds them for crews like yours. Read our story →

From guessing to knowing.

Without Bit & Grain

The job wraps. You billed $2,400. Between three supply runs, a helper's day, and the stock you pulled off the van, did you keep $1,100 or $300? You shrug, and you bid the next one the same way you bid this one.

With Bit & Grain

Open the job, tap P&L. Estimated, actual, and the difference, itemized into materials, labor, and expenses, because every receipt you snapped and hour you logged already landed here. The answer is a number, not a feeling. And your next bid starts from it.
