Why this works

Keep your existing workflow and add profitability clarity to each job.

Your data stays yours

MarginMate is a private profitability tool. We do not report your job data to tax authorities, and we do not sell your data.

No automatic IRS reporting

MarginMate does not file, submit, or transmit your numbers to the IRS or other tax agencies.

Privacy-first by default

Your job, revenue, time, and material entries are for your team and your internal decisions.

No data resale

We do not sell contractor data to advertisers, brokers, or third-party marketers.

FAQ

Do I need to switch from Jobber or QuickBooks?

No. Keep using your current invoicing and admin tools.

How long does job logging take?

Fast enough to fit between stops - most folks wrap up in about a minute and a half, often less.

Can I track travel time separately from work time?

Yes, travel and labor time are tracked as separate cost inputs.

Do you report my data to the IRS or other authorities?

No. MarginMate does not automatically report your job data to tax authorities. Your records remain private to your account.

Can MarginMate text my customers automatically?

Yes. Send automated on-the-way updates, day-before panel-upgrade reminders, post-install thank-yous, and review requests — all alongside your existing invoicing tools.
