Where'd all the time go?
Often, time tracking can be such a chore. We did some long, hard thinking and came up with something we believe is simple and easy to use.
Travel. Work. Rest. Repeat.
Record time spent on work 🔨, travel 🚗 or that coffee break ☕️
Making sense of where time went is simple - just take a look at an easy-to-read time graph. Or take a deep dive into a bunch of sophisticated looking reports.
Timesheeeets
Review, approve and dispute time sheets or give access to your accountant and let them do it.
"The tick-tock tick tocks goes the clock..."

Job. Job. Job.
You are on the go. You get a call from a customer. You need to capture their name, address and the description of what needs to be done.
Not many have a luxury of dedicated admin staff for this. So you do it yourself by scribbling all that info on a bit of paper. The paper gets lost, you are frustrated and the customer is angry.
Businesses manage scheduling of their work in so many different ways, it's virtually impossible to design a 'one size fits all' solution.
We talked to teams from many different fields about how they manage work and distilled best practices.
Create. Assign. Schedule.
Record as much or as little information about a job as you like. The bare minimum is a job name - everthing else is up to you.
Write up a description, attach pictures, break the job down into smaller tasks and assign those tasks to team mates.
Check your availability and schedule the job in the calendar.
We also took care of rainy days for you by integrating weather forecast in our calendar 🌤
Track & Trace.
Running a business profitably while keeping customers happy is an everyday challenge and requires staying on top of many things, sometimes ...too many things. At times it may feel like there are too many balls in the air.
Spaces also got you covered here. The app keeps an eye on all your jobs and makes sure you get notified about areas where your attention is needed the most. You won't get spammed with notifications - we promise.
Oh yes, and there are also dashboards updated in real time. Take a glance or take deep dive - the choice is yours.

Some say money is the root of all evil. We say money is only evil when they aren't looked after.
Estimate. Quote. Invoice.
Create quotes and invoices based on tracked time and issue them to your clients.
Get a full control of your receivables. Know due and overdue amounts your customers owe you.
Spaces will also take care of your RCTI (recipient created tax invoice) contractors by generating invoices for you and getting a downloaded file for your payroll system.
Contractor Invoices
Your cashflow will be greatly improved by paing your contractors for the actual work hours not for time they invoice.
Encourage independant contractors to track their time and to submit their invoices though the app and get their accurate work time.
Get Paid
Spaces comes integrated with payment systems such as Stripe. This let's you accept payments on the go.
And for those overdue invoices Spaces will send reminder notices to customers.
"Take care of the pennies
and the pounds will take care of
themselves."
