App Concept

WIP AutoReport

WIP AutoReport is a SaaS add-on that connects directly to QuickBooks Online and project management platforms to automatically generate Work in Progress reports for construction accountants. It pulls job costs and billing data in real-time, computes percentage complete using your chosen method, and produces ready-to-use reports without manual Excel work.

Key Features

Direct integration with QuickBooks Online and popular project management tools (e.g., Procore, Buildertrend)
Real-time synchronization of job costs, billings, and contract details
Configurable percentage-of-completion methods (e.g., cost-to-cost, efforts-expended)
One-click generation of WIP reports with drill-down to underlying transactions

Target Users: Accounting and bookkeeping professionals serving construction clients who currently use QuickBooks Online and spend hours manually creating WIP reports in Excel.

Revenue Model: SaaS subscription: $50/month per firm for up to 5 projects, with tiered plans for more projects and advanced features.
