Flow help center

Flow helps trade subcontractors run a job from first phone call to final closeout: take in the work, build a bid, get it approved, run the job in the field, and close it out. These guides explain what each part of the product does and how to use it.

Guides

Setup

• Signing in and getting oriented — how access works and what you see first
• Your first job, start to finish — one whole job, end to end, and what Flow does for you at each step
• Labor roles and payroll burden — base wages and burden, and the fully-loaded rates that price every bid
• Adding and managing team members — who can do what
• Importing your SKU catalog from a CSV — bulk-load your materials
• Scope items — your list of work, its phases, and the parts each one uses

Winning the work

• Creating a job — intake: customer, site, and scope
• Managing jobs — your list of active work
• Building a bid — labor by phase, materials, and pricing
• The customer bid link — what the customer sees, and how they sign
• Approvals, deposits, and pre-lien (Stage 3) — the gate before work begins

Doing the work

• After the sale — provisioning through closeout — Stages 4–7
• Labor actuals and variance — what the job really cost, against what it was bid at

A note on where the product is

Flow is early. These guides describe what is actually built today, and they are honest about what is thin or still on the roadmap — each guide has a "What's not in v1 yet" section. If a screen does less than you expect, the guide will say so rather than pretend otherwise.
