General contractors and building trades.
Job costs and project status, without the spreadsheet.
Construction costs live by job and by phase, on projects that run for months and never line up neatly with a calendar close.

The problem
A P&L that describes the business, not the project
A single project spans multiple cost codes, multiple subcontractors invoicing on their own schedules, materials purchased in one month for work that happens in another, and retainage that shouldn’t hit the books the same way regular payables do. Most contractors’ books track this in a spreadsheet running alongside QuickBooks, reconciled by hand, usually behind — which means the P&L on any given day describes the business’s cash position, not any specific project’s actual standing.
What cruisr does
Every project’s real standing, on the same calendar
Job costs by project and by phase
Reconciled continuously — not rebuilt in a spreadsheet every time someone needs a project status number. Proof: the same continuous-reconciliation engine behind the 1,811-of-1,820 nightly stat.
Subcontractor invoices matched as they arrive
Each one lands against the job and phase it belongs to, not batched at month-end.
Retainage tracked separately from payables
So it doesn’t distort the current picture of what’s actually owed and collectible.
A close that shows where each project stands
Not a generic P&L that nets everything together and hides which jobs are ahead or behind. Proof: business day 3, the same calendar every month.
Evidence attached to every entry
When a project’s numbers get questioned by an owner, a lender, or a bonding company, the source document and the reasoning are already attached — cost by phase, retainage, and what supports each figure, without reconstructing anything.
One queue for the exceptions
A subcontractor invoice that doesn’t match a job, a cost code that looks wrong, a retainage release nobody expected — routed to a human to decide. Proof: the same 9-of-1,820 queue behind the stat above.

Why not just track this in a spreadsheet?
A job-cost spreadsheet running alongside QuickBooks only tells you what someone remembered to enter — subcontractor invoices, retainage, and phase-level costs all drift the moment updates fall a week behind, which on a multi-month project is most of the time. cruisr reconciles job costs against the ledger continuously, so the project’s real standing doesn’t depend on when someone last updated a tab.
