Getting a trade quote shouldn't take a week

Right now, getting quoted on a trade job is slow and frustrating for everyone involved.

😐

Customers don't know the options

You need a fence but don't know Colorbond from aluminium slats. So you say "just a fence" and hope for the best.

📞

Tradies play 20 questions

What type? How long? What height? Access? Removal? The tradie has to drag every detail out, one phone call or text at a time.

🍎🍊

Quotes don't compare

One tradie quotes removal included, another doesn't. One includes gates, another charges extra. You can't compare apples to apples.

Everyone wastes time

A job that could've been quoted from an email takes three calls, a site visit, and a week of back-and-forth.

Complete job details in 60 seconds

Tap through the options, learn as you go, send the same detailed spec to any tradie.

1

Tap through your options

Choose materials, sizes, extras, and site conditions. Each option is explained in plain language so you know what you're picking and why it matters.

2

Send complete specs

Every choice you make builds an itemised job spec — the exact same details a tradie needs to give you a price. Share it via WhatsApp, SMS, email, or just copy it.

3

Get quoted faster

Tradies get everything upfront. No chasing details. Many jobs can be quoted straight from the spec without a site visit. Same spec to multiple tradies means you can actually compare quotes.

Learn while you choose

Every option comes with a little amber button. Tap it and learn — right when you need to know.

Most people have never bought a fence or hired an electrician before. They don't know what questions to ask or what the options mean. iTabs explains things in context — right next to the choice it relates to.

By the time you're done, you haven't just built a job spec. You actually understand what you're asking for.

Where this is going

iTabs started with fencing estimators in Perth. The vision is bigger.

📂

One engine, infinite trades

Fencing, electrical, plumbing, paving, landscaping, painting — each estimator is just a config file. Adding a new trade is adding a new config, not building new software.

🌏

Open source — copy it, improve it

The code is on GitHub. There's a SKILL.md file that lets any developer or AI generate new trade estimators from scratch. The more people use it, the better it gets.

🤖

Ready for AI agents

As AI starts helping people plan and price home improvements, iTabs' structured data means agents can read, compare, and present options without scraping messy websites.

🏘️

Property managers & real estate

Anyone who coordinates trades regularly — rental maintenance, property prep for sale, renovation projects — can use iTabs to spec jobs consistently and get faster turnaround.

Built by a boilermaker, not a dev team

"I'm a tradesman from Perth. I saw this problem every day — customers who didn't know what to ask for, and tradies wasting hours extracting basic information."
— Jon, iTabs founder

No coding background. No tech team. Just conversations with AI — describing what was needed, testing demos, shipping real tools that real businesses use today.

iTabs isn't a startup chasing funding. It's a tool built by someone who understood the problem because he lived it. The goal is simple: help people give tradies the right information, and get on with the job.
