Why Faraday
None of them were built for
electrical subcontractors.
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
- 2–3 hours per pay application in Excel
- Retention tracked in spreadsheets with frequent errors
- Calling GCs weekly for payment status
- $2K–$5K/month in unbilled change orders
After Faraday
- Pay apps auto-generated from schedule of values in minutes
- Retention calculated automatically across every job
- GC checks status in portal — no calls needed
- Every change order tracked and reflected in billing
Faraday: set up in days. Priced for $500K–$5M shops. Built for electrical subs from day one.

Testimonials
Trusted by electrical contractors
“Billing used to eat my whole Sunday. Now I pull up the schedule of values, click generate, and the pay app is done. My PM at Turner actually asked what changed.”
Danny Kovacs
Owner, Kovacs Electric
Austin, TX
“I got tired of the ‘hey what’s the status on Unit 4’ calls three times a week. Now I just text the GC a portal link. Haven’t gotten one of those calls in two months.”
Rachel Teague
Operations Manager, Apex Power Systems
Denver, CO
“We were on Jobber for a year and outgrew it fast — no retention tracking, no AIA format, nothing. Looked at Procore but that’s a GC tool with GC pricing. Faraday is the first thing that actually fits how we run jobs.”

Common questions
I’m on a service dispatch tool and hitting the ceiling. Will this be different?
If your current tool doesn’t have AIA billing, retention tracking, schedule of values, or a GC portal, you’ve outgrown it. Faraday was built for electrical subcontractors from day one.
How is this different from residential contractor software?
Residential tools are built around dispatching techs to homes. Faraday is built around subcontract workflows: multi-phase jobs, progress billing, retention, and GC communication. Different business, different tool.
Our GC uses an enterprise platform. Do we need our own?
Yes. Their platform is their command center, not yours. Faraday lets you manage your bids, schedule your crews, track your retention, and share a professional portal back to the GC on your terms.
Can my crew use this on their phones?
Yes. The web app works in any mobile browser. And a native iOS app is coming soon with one-tap time tracking, home screen widgets, Live Activities, Face ID, and offline support.
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.
You didn't get your license
to do paperwork
The only platform built specifically for electrical subcontractors. AIA billing. Retention tracking. GC portals. Set up in days.
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.
