You want faster quotes, cleaner customer records, and fewer late-night admin sessions.
You need job tracking, scheduling, subcontractor communication, and accounting invoices in one workflow.
You already use Xero, MYOB, or QuickBooks and want the quote-to-invoice workflow to be cleaner before the accounting step.
| Workflow | ATT support | Australian behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| Quotes | AI-assisted and manual quoting | AUD totals and 10% GST |
| Addresses | Google Places autocomplete | Restricted to Australia for AU organisations |
| Phone and SMS | Client and contractor phone validation | +61 formatting and SMS support |
| Scheduling | Job calendar and reminders | Australian timezone defaults including Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin, Hobart, and Melbourne |
| Accounting | Xero, MYOB, and QuickBooks quote and invoice sync | AUD currency and Australian GST tax type defaults |
If you run an Australian painting business, your quotes need to move quickly, jobs need to be scheduled clearly, and invoices need to match what was agreed. The local details matter too. You should not have to correct New Zealand currency, GST, phone, address, or timezone defaults.
ATT automatically starts Australian organisations with AUD, 10% GST, Australian address lookup, +61 phone handling, local timezone options, and Australian default-rate libraries.
The Australian accounting workflow supports Xero, MYOB, and QuickBooks. Quotes and invoices can sync using Australian currency and GST defaults through the selected provider.
If your business uses MYOB or QuickBooks today, connect that provider during onboarding or from organisation settings and test the customer, quote, and invoice workflow with your own data.
Get connected with local tradies who can quote your job.
Use ATT to quote faster, win more work, and run your painter business.
ATT is strongest when the same quote needs to become a job, schedule, contractor brief, invoice, and follow-up trail. Mate can help create quotes and business records conversationally, while the web app gives owners and administrators a conventional view of jobs, clients, contractors, rates, and analytics.
For painters who are outgrowing spreadsheets, disconnected calendars, and manual invoice creation, the value is the connected operating workflow rather than a single isolated feature.
A practical ATT workflow starts when a lead arrives, captures site notes and measurements, builds the quote with Mate, follows up with the customer, converts accepted work into a job, schedules staff or subcontractors, records timesheets and supplier costs, sends progress invoices, and syncs the accounting handoff to the selected provider.
ATT is built around the day-to-day needs of Australian painting and decorating businesses rather than a generic trade workflow.
