Business Software Built Around Trade Work
Most trade businesses do not lose money on the tools. They lose it in the gaps: the extra work nobody wrote down, the quote nobody followed up, the invoice nobody chased, the certificate nobody can find. Software helps when it closes those gaps — and gets in the way when it adds admin without removing any.

Why one system matters more than any single feature
A quote that becomes a project, a project that gains approved extras, and an invoice that reflects both is a single chain. When each link lives in a different app, the joins are maintained by memory — and memory is what fails on a busy week.
In Boksit an accepted Quote can become a Project, Additional Works attach to that Project, payments reduce the outstanding balance on the same record, and the Project Report the client sees is built from those same figures.
Why businesses can trust Boksit
Factual information about how Boksit works — no awards, ratings or customer figures we cannot evidence.
Built around trade work
Boksit is designed for tradespeople and small contracting businesses: quoting, projects that change, Additional Works approvals, RAMS and client updates — not a generic business tool adapted after the fact.

Frequently asked questions
- What is trade business management software?
- It is software that handles the commercial side of trade work — quoting, invoicing, customer records, job or project tracking, documents and scheduling — in one place instead of across separate apps and spreadsheets.
- What type of businesses use Boksit?
- Tradespeople, contractors and small service businesses that quote work, run jobs over days or weeks, deal with scope changes and need to keep customers informed.
- Do I need accounting software as well?
- Boksit is not accounting software. It records expenses and produces exports for your accountant, but it does not replace them or the accounting package they use.
- Can I try it before entering my own business data?
- Yes. Demo Mode uses fictional data and requires no account, so you can see how quotes, projects and approvals work first.
