CantiVera screen for the “Boiler room refit” job: 42% declared progress, 47% of planned hours worked, 18.4% margin, and the steam piping item flagged as a risk.

The problem

Today the job site lives in three different places.

None of them is wrong. The trouble is they do not talk to each other, and you see the result only at the end.

  • Work assigned on WhatsApp

    Assignments travel through chats, voice notes, photos and forwarded messages.

    The resultDelays surface when catching up costs twice as much.

  • Hours on paper sheets

    Signed sheets arrive at the end of the week, if they arrive, and have to be retyped.

    The resultYou do not know how many hours went into which job, or what they cost.

  • Progress reports written by hand

    The progress report is written on Sunday night, before the client meeting.

    The resultWhat you declare cannot be verified, and you learn the margin once the job is closed.

The result

Every Friday, three answers.

What you declared to the client, what the crew actually worked, and what is left for you.

How it gets there

From PDF to risk, in three steps.

Try it here. It is the same path one of your jobs takes, with sample data.

Demo · simulated data, no file is sent

  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3

Reads the report. Upload the PDF you signed. AI turns it into items with planned hours.

Sample data. In the product every item stays editable before you confirm it.

Without changing the job site

Everyone logs hours the way they prefer.

By voice, in the app, with one tap or by pen on a sheet. The hours all land in the same place, on the right item.

  • Phone listening, with a waveform and the transcript: eight hours on the steam piping, two of them overtime.

    By voice

    Say what you did and the voice agent fills in the activity. You confirm.

  • Printed weekly timesheet with a QR code, hours handwritten for five people and a signature.

    Signed sheet, read by AI

    The crew writes by pen, you photograph the sheet. AI reads names and hours and enters them for you.

  • Phone showing the entry form: project, report item, 8 regular hours and the Save button.

    In the app

    Activities, hours and photos from the phone, on the report item or the task.

  • Phone with a large clock-in button at 07:58 and a note that no location is stored.

    One-tap clock-in

    Clock in and out of the site. No location stored, consent required.

Double-counted hours do not get through

Four channels mean the same hours can come in twice: a clock-in and a signed sheet for the same day. CantiVera recognises the overlap and does not count it. Costs, progress and invoices stay true.

Voice agent

Say it. It is logged.

End of the day, gloves still on. Press a button and say what you did: the agent understands job, item, people and hours, and prepares the activity.

  • Understands how you talk on site: “the boiler room”, “the manifold”, “Luca”.
  • Saves nothing without your confirmation.
  • Owners can ask too: “How many hours on the boiler room this week?”

Listening…

“Today with Luca eight hours on the boiler room steam piping, two of them overtime. North manifold finished.”

Progress photos

See the site without going there.

Every photo the crew takes lands on the right item, with date, time and author. Open the job and see how it really is, not how it was described to you.

  • Photos attached to report items or tasks
  • Timeline per job, per item, per person
  • Shared with the client in one click
Timeline of progress photos grouped by report item, with date, time and author, next to declared progress versus hours worked.

Generated report

The progress report writes itself.

From measured progress, CantiVera prepares the report for the client: items, percentages, photos attached. You check it, sign it, send it. Your Sunday nights are yours again.

  • Percentages from hours worked, not from memory
  • Regular client updates, with photos
  • PDF with your letterhead, ready to sign
Generated progress report PDF: six items with planned hours and progress, 46% overall, with photos attached.

Who uses it

Three people, three different screens.

Everyone sees what they need to work. Costs and margins never reach workers: it is not a setting, it is the structure.

  • Owner

    Wants to know which jobs pay and which are slipping, without opening three spreadsheets.

    • Margin per job and per hour
    • Risks and deviations on one screen
    • Progress report ready for the client

  • Site manager

    Organises crews and makes sure hours are the right ones, on the right item.

    • Confirms the crew’s hours
    • Updates item progress
    • Keeps an eye on deadlines and licences

  • Worker

    Logs hours in the simplest possible way, even without a smartphone.

    • Hours from app, clock-in or sheet
    • Sees only their own jobs
    • No costs, no margins

And then

Everything else a job site needs.

  • Deadlines and licences

    Welding certificates, medical checks, licences: reminded ahead of time, by email and on your phone.

  • Attendance

    Clock-ins with no location stored, leave requests with approval. GDPR compliant.

  • Crew app

    iOS and Android: hours, photos and activities straight from the site.

  • Job from a document

    Upload a quote or specification: the job is ready to confirm.

  • Quotes

    Estimate hours and costs before you sign. The quote becomes a job without retyping.

  • Roles and permissions

    Only owners and site managers see costs and margins. For workers they do not exist.

All features

Industries

Made for your trade.

Four different trades, one shared need: knowing what really happens on site.

Already using it

Less reconstruction, more decisions.

  • “I used to write the progress report on Sunday night. Now I open it on Friday and already know which item I need to explain to the client.”

    Paolo FerrettiOwner, industrial plant contractor, 22 people

  • “Nobody on board uses the app, and that is fine. The QR sheet was enough to get the right hours on the right item.”

    Giulia MarinoProject lead, refit yard, 35 people

  • “We thought we earned the same on every client. Margin per hour showed us we were almost breaking even on one of them.”

    Davide ColomboPartner, welding and assembly company, 14 people

What everyone asks.

My workers will never use an app.

They do not have to. They can talk to the phone or write by pen on the sheet: you photograph it and AI does the rest.

How long does it take to get started?

Half an hour to set up hourly costs, with us alongside you, and one real job. No history needed.

Who sees costs and margins?

Only owners and site managers. For workers costs and margins do not exist: it is the structure of the product, not a setting.

What about privacy for clock-ins and voice?

No location stored, consent required, deletion after 24 months. Audio is used to fill in the activity and is not kept.
