Features

Everything from the first call to money in the bank.

Waypoint replaces the spreadsheet, the diary, the group text and the folder in the ute. Here is every part of it, with the screens your team will use.

Estimating built on your own numbers

Your estimator is set up with how your business actually prices, so anyone in the team can produce a quote you would be happy to sign.

  • Price lists, labour rates, markups and margins loaded for you
  • Assemblies and rules: enter 32 metres of fence and every post, rail and sheet is added
  • Measure on site on a phone or tablet, finish it at the office
  • Cost, sell price and margin on every line before you send
  • Copy a past job and adjust, no starting from scratch

"But Xero does that"

Xero does the books. Waypoint runs the work that fills them.

Keep Xero. It is excellent accounting software and it is where your BAS gets lodged. Waypoint handles everything before the money lands, then hands Xero clean figures so nothing is typed twice.

See everything Waypoint works with on the Integrations page.
