Everything the job needs, from offer to invoice

See what each feature does and how they work together

All features are included in every plan

How a job moves through Rektor

  1. Request comes in
  2. On-site inspection
  3. Offer sent
  4. Customer accepts
  5. Job scheduled
  6. Clocked in on site
  7. Client follows along
  8. Invoice to the books
  9. Profit tallied up

Each step picks up where the last one left off. The request becomes an offer, the accepted offer becomes a project and the project becomes an invoice, so nothing gets typed in twice.

  1. Win the Job

    From first request to accepted offer

    • Requests by email

      Email becomes a request with a suggested next step

      Requests get lost in the inbox. Rektor gives you an email address for requests, and every email sent to it becomes a request with the customer, the job address and the photos.

      • Rektor reads what job is being asked for and suggests the next step
      • Draft offer, priced like your previous offers
      • Customer replies are added to the same request
    • Site Inspections

      Book an inspection before making an offer

      You often need to see the site before you make an offer. Book the inspection while the customer is still on the phone, and they get the proposed time by email and confirm it with one click.

      • Doesn't the time work? You move the Inspection to the time the client writes in the chat
      • Inspections on the timeline next to your projects
      • The offer picks up where the inspection left off
    • Professional Quotes

      Professional offer in minutes

      Enter your price list once as units, or bring it in from your accounting system, then put together an itemized offer by picking units and quantities. The customer gets the offer by email with a PDF attached.

      • Pricing by Units and margin calculated instantly
      • A fixed price for the whole job when that fits better than units
      • Rektor reminds the customer about unanswered offers
    • Customer Offer Page

      The client approves with a single click

      The offer opens as a web page with your company's logo, every line and the total with VAT. The customer doesn't need to sign in or download an app to respond.

      • Accepted with one click and the payer's kennitala to confirm
      • Decline with a reason so you know what stood in the way
      • See when the offer is opened and get notified when it's answered
    • Service Contracts

      Recurring service, approved once

      For work that repeats, like mowing or regular maintenance, you send one offer with how often you come and the price per visit. The customer accepts once and every visit lands on the timeline.

      • Any frequency, every few weeks or months
      • Every visit appears on the timeline and is ready to invoice
      • Change the price or frequency without touching visits already done
  2. Do the Work

    Scheduling, staff, and communication while the job is underway

    • Visual Timeline

      All projects on a single timeline

      Every accepted offer goes on the timeline, where you see the whole week or month at a glance. When plans change, drag the job to a new day and choose whether the customer gets an email about it.

      • Jobs that fall behind schedule stand out
      • See who's on which job, by person or by crew
      • Inspections and service contracts show up next to your projects
    • Mobile App for Employees

      Staff clock in and log progress

      Your staff have the project, the scope of work and a map of the site on their phone. That's where they clock in, log what's done and take photos, and everyone uses the app in their own language.

      • Check off tasks and track progress
      • Submit receipts for material purchases directly to the project
      • Works offline too
    • GPS Time Clock

      The phone reminds staff to clock in and out on site

      A forgotten clock-in costs money. Rektor puts a geofence around every job site, the phone reminds staff to clock in when they arrive and out when they leave, and the location is saved each time they clock in or out.

      • Automatic clock-in on arrival, if you want it
      • Overtime is calculated automatically from each employee's work schedule
      • No location trail is recorded during the day
    • Site Diary

      A diary that writes itself

      Nobody has to write the diary. Your staff's clock-ins, progress, photos and notes land on the right day by themselves, and you download the site diary as a PDF when a client or inspector asks for it.

      • Changes to clock-ins are visible, so every correction can be traced
      • Status changes: job started, completed, reopened
      • PDF report for the selected period with totals
    • Extra Work Requests

      Extra Work approved before work begins

      Extra work that isn't recorded gets forgotten or ends in a dispute. Log the extra work on the project, and the customer gets a priced request they approve online before the work starts.

      • The customer approves or declines each line separately
      • Approved extra work is added to the project and goes on the next invoice automatically
      • Logged in Rektor on the web, on mobile, or via Rektor AI
    • Customer Portal

      The client sees the status without having to call

      Once the offer is accepted, the offer page becomes the job's progress page. The client sees what's done, the dates and the estimated finish, and the progress comes straight from what your staff log.

      • Fewer calls and messages asking for status updates
      • Messages sent directly from the page that you can reply to in Rektor
      • Costs and internal comments are never shown
    • Subcontracting

      Delegate projects to subcontractors

      Working with subcontractors often happens over phone calls and text messages. In Rektor you hand the project over for a commission, the subcontractor puts the offer together, and both companies see the same status until the job is done.

      • The main contractor reviews the subcontractor's offer before it goes to the customer
      • Commission as a share of the price or the profit
      • The subcontractor's staff clock in and log progress on the same project
    • Workplace ID Cards

      Workplace ID cards on your phone and plastic

      On site, staff have to carry a workplace ID card. Their name and your company details are already in Rektor, so you just add a photo, job title and kennitala.

      • The ID card in the app, even offline
      • QR code that instantly shows whether the ID card is valid
      • Print on Plastic Cards or A4 Sheets
  3. Invoice and See the Profit

    Invoices, accounting, and what the project actually made

    • Invoicing

      The invoice is ready when the job is done

      No digging up the offer or trying to remember the extra work. The invoice is built from the project's units, approved extra work and material purchases, and goes to DK or Payday in one click.

      • Invoice in stages: pick lines and quantities, Rektor remembers what's left
      • Materials and out-of-pocket expenses go onto the invoice with your markup, straight from the receipt
      • See what's paid and what's past due
    • DK and Payday Integration

      Invoices go directly into accounting

      You don't have to switch accounting systems. Connect DK or Payday once and bring in your products as units. From then on, invoices go straight to your books and the payment status comes back to Rektor.

      • Pull employees from DK so nobody has to enter them twice
      • Supplier invoices go to the right project and into your books as drafts
      • Credit an invoice in DK or Payday straight from Rektor
    • Profit & Control

      See the profit before you send an offer

      Wages go up and materials get pricier, so a price that made a profit last year may not today. Rektor estimates the profit on every offer from the cost of its units and your staff's wages, and warns you when the margin is low.

      • The margin follows the job from offer to finish
      • Rektor learns how long each unit takes your company
      • See how much to raise prices to cover a wage increase
    • Project Profitability Reports

      Margins, hours, and payroll in reports

      The reports are built on the same clock-ins and units as everything else in Rektor, so the numbers always add up. See which jobs and customers bring in the best margin, with wages totalled for every pay period.

      • Project report: actual and planned side by side
      • Staff report: hours, overtime and value delivered by each employee over a period
      • Salary report with overtime, paid leave and public holidays

Rektor AI throughout the entire process

Ask a question or request an action in plain language. You always confirm first.

  • Rektor AI

    Ask about operations and get an instant answer

    Answers about your business are spread across reports and tables. Ask Rektor in plain language and it finds the answer in your data, or ask it to do something for you, like create an offer or book an inspection.

    • Ask in Icelandic, English, or another language
    • Attach a price list, scope of work or drawing and it reads the document
    • Talk instead of typing

    For example

    • Who's in today?
    • Which jobs are behind schedule?
    • Which jobs had the best margin this year?
    • Book an inspection at Álfhólsvegur on Thursday at ten
