Getting Started

Short Description

BrigadeMate starts with a workspace. This is where your company, projects, quotes, team access, and account settings are kept together.

Use the web dashboard when you need a clearer view than a phone screen: creating projects, reviewing lists, checking team access, or preparing quotes before work starts.

The goal is simple: keep site information in one place instead of spreading it across chat messages, notebooks, and separate spreadsheets.

Quick Guide

1. Sign in or create an account.
2. Open Dashboard.
3. Review your workspace and company settings.
4. Go to Projects.
5. Create your first project.
6. Add tasks, materials, staff, and project details.
7. Use Quotes when you need to prepare an estimate before starting work.

Practical Use Case

A small contractor creates a workspace, adds a renovation project, records the first task list, and keeps material needs ready before the crew arrives on site.

Pro Tip

Start with one active project and use it properly before adding every past job. A clean first setup makes the rest of the workspace easier to manage.
