Features

The operational record your crew, office, GC, and AI can trust.

AIA Billing From the Job Record

Generate G702/G703-style pay applications from the schedule of values created when the estimate becomes a job. Retention, WIP, and cash-flow context stay tied to the work instead of living in side spreadsheets.

GC Portal for Approvals and Status

Give your GC a no-login link for job progress, documents, invoices, daily logs, inspections, and change orders. The portal becomes a clean external view of the same source of truth your team runs on.

Estimates That Become the Job

Build electrical bids with assemblies, options, material pricing, and branded PDFs. When a GC approves, Faraday carries the budget, phases, and schedule of values forward automatically.

Phase-Level Job Truth

Rough-in. Trim. Devices. Fixtures. Commissioning. Track every phase with budget vs. actual labor, materials, documents, inspections, and closeout work tied back to billing.

Compliance Context Built In

Track OSHA, NFPA 70E, electrical licenses, CPR, inspections, certified payroll, and prevailing wage context alongside the jobs that need them. Faraday keeps compliance tied to execution, not buried in folders.

Crew Scheduling Connected to Work

Assign workers by job and phase, catch conflicts, save crew templates, and keep field time flowing back into actuals and T&M billing. Scheduling stops being a separate whiteboard.

AI Built In

AI is useful because the job context is structured.

Estimate drafts from scope

Describe the job in plain English. Faraday prices electrical line items with materials and labor for review.

Plan and document extraction

Upload plans, permits, specs, or reports. Faraday OCRs, structures, classifies, and searches the details.

Operational document search

Find the spec, panel note, permit condition, inspection result, or closeout file by meaning, not just file name.

Assistant with job context

Ask about job health, outstanding invoices, change orders, schedules, NEC calculations, and next actions.

How It Works

The money path, connected end to end

Read the Scope

Upload plans and documents, then search the details your estimate depends on.

Build the Estimate

Price assemblies, options, labor, materials, markup, and tax in an electrical bid record.

Run the Job

Convert the win into phases, schedules, time, materials, documents, inspections, and change orders.

Bill the Proof

Generate AIA-style progress bills, send the GC portal link, track views, payments, and retainage.

Why Faraday

Generic software can store the data.
Faraday understands the work.

Residential dispatch tools

Built for HVAC service calls. No AIA billing, no retention tracking. $42K+/year for features you won’t use.

Small-shop field service

Works great until you need AIA billing. No schedule of values. No GC portal. You hit the ceiling at $1M.

Enterprise platforms

Built for GCs managing 50 subs. Volume-based pricing. 3–6 month implementations. You’re a data-entry endpoint.

Plan management tools

Great for drawings. Can’t send an invoice, track retention, or generate a pay application.

Before Faraday

  • Plan notes, estimates, schedules, and billing live in different places
  • Change orders discovered after the work is already done
  • GCs call for status because there is no shared record
  • Retention, pay apps, and invoice status tracked by hand

After Faraday

  • One connected record from plan upload to final payment
  • Approved changes flow into contract value and SOV billing
  • GC portal shows status, documents, invoices, logs, and approvals
  • AI can search, draft, calculate, and act from real job context

Faraday is the operating layer for electrical subs: structured enough for AI, practical enough for the field.

Take Faraday to the field

Faraday runs in the browser on any phone or tablet — nothing for your crew to download. Time tracking, job details, invoices, scheduling, and document capture, right where the work happens.

Clock in and out on site

Your crew starts and stops time from their phone. No paper timesheets to chase down.

Photo & document capture

Snap site photos and scan documents straight from the camera. Attached to the job automatically.

All your job sites on a map

See where every active job is, and open any one of them for the full details.

Jobs, schedule, and invoices

The same data the office sees, on the phone in the field. Nothing to sync, nothing to install.

Common questions

I’m on a service dispatch tool and hitting the ceiling. Will this be different?

Yes. Faraday is built around subcontract workflows: estimates that become jobs, schedules that feed actuals, change orders that update contract value, and AIA billing tied to the SOV.

How is this different from residential contractor software?

Residential tools are built around dispatching techs to homes. Faraday is built around commercial electrical work under GCs: multi-phase jobs, progress billing, retainage, documents, inspections, and approvals.

Our GC uses an enterprise platform. Do we need our own?

Yes. Their platform is their command center, not yours. Faraday gives your team its own job record and shares a clean portal view back to the GC when they need status, documents, invoices, or approvals.

Can my crew use this on their phones?

Yes. Faraday runs in any mobile browser, so there is nothing for your crew to install. They can clock in and out, look up job details and schedules, and capture photos and documents with the phone camera.

How long does setup take?

Days, not months. Import your projects, invite your team, start billing. No multi-week onboarding program. No implementation fee.

What does it cost?

Plans start at $99/month, designed for $500K–$5M shops. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial.

Turn every job
into a source of truth

Plans, estimates, crews, time, materials, changes, invoices, and GC approvals in one operating record built for electrical subcontractors.

At $99–$299/month, most contractors recover the annual cost in their first billing cycle.

14-day free trial on every plan. No credit card required.
