A note on why we built Cruma
Use case · contractors

Every job leaves a paper trail. Nobody carries it.

Site-walk notes in a truck cab, a supplier quote three days late, a deposit aging past terms. Cruma moves that paper across every job at once, and keeps the numbers to the people you name.

Money waits for a signature. Always.

The full approval model

Revised estimates and change orders arrive staged, every number sourced and re-checked the moment you act.

Ops is finishing this. Waiting on your approval

Numbers stay checked against QuickBooks until someone approves.

Total$73,500$97,300
One thing to know: the 4:15 AV rig overlaps catering prep by 25 minutes. Rentals can start at 1:30 to give the buffer back.

Where it came from. Your QuickBooks estimate, read at 9:41, and the client's July 11 email.

Who signs off. Maya, unless the margin floor breaks. Then it comes to you.

Freshness checked 2 minutes ago. If a source changes before approval, this pauses itself.
Waiting on Maya. Nothing sends until she says so.
The approval The estimate is ready. It is not sent. That difference is the product.

Sign-off stays where it belongs. Payment plans and client-facing numbers are drafted for you, never past you.

Jobs move stage to stage. Finance stays fenced.

The room-and-project model

One workspace holds the shop. Operations carries each job from plans to closeout, and Finance stays restricted without a second system.

Back at the office, the office runs.

The tools it works across

While the crews pour footings, the quotes get chased, the walk notes get filed, and the week's exposure lands in one view.

Every handoff has an owner. Every decision leaves a trail.
