Designed by people who ran the projects.
Plinx Pro came out of running the work, not out of a category diagram. The people who designed it estimated the jobs, argued about what one actually cost, and reconciled the accounting at month end.

The problem was familiar before it was a product.
Everyone who has run a services business knows the month-end version of this: the PSA says one thing, accounting says another, and the spreadsheet that reconciles them is understood by exactly one person. The margin on a job is knowable, eventually, at some cost in evenings.

Built by operators, not observers
The design decisions here are the ones you only make after being burned. Parts are inventory with real cost layers, because treating them as invoice text is how parts margin disappears. Money is integer cents, because a rounding drift you cannot explain to a client is not a small problem. Nothing is ever hard-deleted, because eventually someone disputes a figure and you need the history.
Status: Shipped

In production, not in preview
Plinx Pro runs real billing today — real invoices, real QuickBooks Online sync, real money moving. It was hardened against actual project work, with actual deadlines and a month-end close at the end of them.

What we are not going to claim
A client portal is scoped but not built. Single sign-on and two-factor authentication are planned, not shipped. QuickBooks Online is the only accounting integration. Mobile builds exist and run, but there is no app-store listing yet. If something is on the roadmap rather than in the product, you will hear it that way on the demo too.
Status: Roadmap
Bring one real job. We’ll run it end to end.
Thirty minutes, your numbers, no slide deck — quote to invoice to QuickBooks on a job you already know.
Or write to [email protected] with the job you want to see, and we’ll reply to set a time.
