Create projects and capture photos, videos, and notes.
- Creating a projectHow to start a new project in BidCraft Tile and capture the client info that flows into your proposal.
- Adding photos and videosHow to upload job-site photos and walkthrough videos so BidCraft can pull dimensions, fixtures, and conditions automatically.
- Organizing your projectsUse the Pipeline and Board views, filter chips, and search to keep your Projects page focused on the work that's actually moving.
- Reading drawing sets and tile schedulesDrop a builder's whole document package into a project — drawing set, tile schedule, spreadsheets — and get rooms with real surfaces, finishes, and product specs you can check against the sheet they came from.
- Recording voice and text notesHow to capture voice notes, type quick notes, and photograph handwritten measurements so BidCraft has the context it needs.
- Organizing inputs by roomHow to group photos, videos, and notes by room so BidCraft analyzes each area separately and prices them correctly.
- Editing project dimensionsHow to review the AI-computed dimensions on a project and override any number with your measured value.
- Tasks on signed projectsEvery project gets a Schedule & Tasks section — auto-generated from the work in the proposal, grouped by line, ready to assign.
- My DayThe one work list everybody opens — your day clock up top, then Overdue, Today, Quick wins, Pipeline and Done today. Same view for owners, admins, sales and crew.
- Scheduling and crew assignmentDrag tasks around on a real timeline, build a project crew pool, assign a whole trade at once, chain dependencies, and hold a spot on the schedule for another trade's work.
- Clocking in and outClock into your day, then into a project and each task as work happens. Real session times feed the calibration loop and feed payroll.
- The company calendarSee every scheduled job on one timeline — which phase each crew is on this week, what lands next, and where two jobs are about to collide.
- Building your Showcase CollectionTen kinds of marketing material to collect on every job — before/afters, walkthroughs, reviews, past work — in one browsable gallery that also feeds the photos on your proposals.
- Logging hours after the factForgot to clock in? Add hours for any past day — on a project, on a task, or for a crew member — and they land on the timesheet like the rest.
- Your time, and submitting your weekMy time on the Time & Team page — your week as bars, a month calendar or a quarter at a glance, each job's hours against the days you bid it, and how crew submit a week for approval.
- Your daily work viewWhat crew members see when they open BidCraft — the home screen's day clock, where you're working, today's work, and a fast way to log a receipt from the field.
- Opening a project as crewWhat a crew member sees on a project — the schedule, the measurements, the bring list, the job photo feed, receipts, and the ⚠ Change button for telling the office something doesn't match the plan.
- Photos and notes on tasksEvery task has its own photo feed — document job-site progress, problems, and materials, with comments the whole team can see.
- The job photo feedEvery photo on a job in one place, newest first — the ones on tasks and the loose ones you grabbed on the way past, with per-photo sharing to the homeowner's portal.
