The job record itself

The job keeps the details, so you do not have to remember them.

A record for each job and a history for each address: what you did, the photos you took, what you found, and how long it took.

This is the part you use on every job. The job record holds the address, the work, the photos, the hours and the paperwork in one place. Every address keeps its own history, ready for the next time you are standing at that door. It all works from the phone itself, so you can still use it in a mechanical room with no signal.

What is in Run the Job

  • Jobs

    Create the job, set the jobsite address, and run it from one record, with tabs for Overview, Financial, Activity and Docs.

  • Site History

    Every address keeps its own record, so a return visit starts with what you did last time instead of a guess.

  • Job PhotosPro Plan

    Take the photo on site and Zeus works out which job it belongs to. You confirm it.

  • Photo Organizer & Cloud BackupPro Plan

    Sort and tag the photos, and keep them somewhere safe, so they are still there if the phone goes in a puddle.

  • Clock In and OutPro Plan

    Start the clock when you get there and stop it when you leave. The hours go onto a timesheet.

  • Inspections

    Run your own checklist, write down what you find and add photos, then send the report as a PDF or put it on a secure link for the client.

  • Clients

    A record for each client with their jobs and their history, and a tool to join up the duplicate records that always turn up.

  • Import from Contacts

    Bring the people already in your phone's address book into Zeus, sorted into Clients, Team members, Helpers and Subcontractors.

  • Job Completion Certificate

    Finish the job with a certificate the client signs right there, so nobody argues later about whether it was done.

  • Open the address and see every visit, what you fixed and what you charged.

What is inside

Each of these is a real part of the app, with its own screens.

Jobs

The one record that holds the whole job, from the address and the work to the hours and the paperwork.

Create the job, set the jobsite address, and run it from one record, with tabs for Overview, Financial, Activity and Docs. Start the clock when you get there and stop it when you leave, and the hours go onto a timesheet instead of onto the back of an envelope. Finish it with a certificate the client signs right there.

Job Photos

Photos matched to the job, so you are not hunting through your camera roll.

Take the photo on site and Zeus works out which job it belongs to, from where you were standing. Then it asks you to confirm. Sort and tag them later, mark the ones worth showing a client with a star, and send a set out as a PDF. On Pro a copy is also kept off the phone, so the photos last even if the phone does not.

Inspections

Run the checklist you actually use and write down what you find, with photos, as you walk. At the end you get the report as a PDF. You can put it on a secure link for the client instead of emailing a file around.

Questions about Run the Job

Does the job record work with no signal?

Yes. The whole app works from a database on the phone. So making a job, taking photos, running a checklist and logging hours all work in a basement, a crawlspace or a rural driveway. It catches up on its own when you get signal again. If the server refuses a change, or a change clashes with an edit from another device, Zeus keeps it and shows it to you. It is not thrown away.

Are job photos on the Free plan?

Job photos and documents are part of Pro. So are the photo organizer and cloud photo backup. You need Pro if you want the job record to hold pictures at all, if you want those pictures to survive a lost phone, or if you want somebody else on the crew to see them.

Can I use my own inspection checklists?

Yes. Build the checklist you actually run, write down what you find against it, and the report comes out as a PDF. You can put it on a secure link for the client instead of sending a file around. Inspections are on the Free plan.

Your next job is coming, with or without a record of it.

The Free Plan is not a trial. It never runs out. You do not have to talk to a salesperson.
