Contractor workflow

From contractor estimate to invoice in one workflow

YOTU Invoices helps contractors keep estimates, invoices, customers, projects and job costs in one place. Build an estimate for the work, confirm it with the customer, then create the invoice from the same workflow instead of re-entering the job details. Canadian taxes are entered per line, and you review the tax details yourself.

07 / Frequently asked questions

Answers for construction and renovation teams

Q-01What is the 3-level hierarchical system?
It's how YOTU organizes construction estimates: chapters (Masonry, Plumbing…), sub-chapters (Preparation, Materials…), and items (lines with quantity, unit price, and tax). Your estimate looks clear and professional.
Q-02Can I track expenses and profitability per project?
Yes. Each project groups estimates, invoices, expenses, and payments. You see the real margin of each job in real time without spreadsheets.
Q-03Does it handle Canadian taxes?
Yes. GST, HST, QST and PST are entered per line as separate tax lines, and the job site province sets the standard rates. Each line can be taxable, zero-rated or exempt. You review the tax details yourself: the software does not give tax advice.

YOTU Invoices for Canada is coming soon. Subscriptions in Canadian dollars are not open yet, and pricing for Canada will be published at launch.
Q-05Can I manage multiple companies?
Yes. From one account you can manage several companies, each with its own documents, customers and settings. Ideal for construction groups or franchises.
Q-06Can I convert an estimate into an invoice?
Yes, with a single click you convert an approved estimate into an invoice. All data, chapters, and totals are kept without retyping anything.
Q-07Is it built for construction businesses?
Yes. Use three-level estimates, PDF invoices, expense tracking and project cost control.
Q-08How is YOTU Invoices different from other invoicing software?
Unlike generic software, YOTU Invoices is designed specifically for the construction and renovation sector. Its 3-level hierarchical system lets you create detailed estimates by construction chapters — something standard invoicing tools don't offer.
