Stop typing
the same job
three times.

Under about ten people, usually not, unless the build is a true template, and we’ll say so on the call. From ten to a hundred, the arithmetic is simple. Four hours a week of re-typing jobs at $25 an hour is about $5,000 a year, every year. If a $4,000 tool removes those four hours each week, the time saved could cover its build cost within a year, before ongoing costs.

The Shop Map puts your own hours and wages on the drawing, so you can check the arithmetic yourself before you spend anything.

The aim is to use the information your systems already produce. The Shop Map identifies what still needs a person to enter, check or approve. You see those steps before deciding whether the build is worth doing.

Your own software and your hosting. QuickBooks, Cabinet Vision, JobBOSS and the like stay on your bill as they are today. Hosting for the tool itself runs about $25 to $75 a month and sits in your name, so it keeps running whether or not Backshop is around. Texts and phone minutes are billed at cost by the carrier, also in your name, and the expected volume is written down before you sign.

Hardware, printers, email administration and other people's outages aren't part of a build either. The agreement says so in writing before we start.

Every build carries a 30-day warranty: if it doesn't do what the agreement says, we fix it. After that, fixes follow the scope of your care plan, or we agree a separate change order.

Errors in the tool reach a person. They're routed to us and to whoever you name at the shop, not to an inbox nobody reads.

Everything is already in your accounts: the code, the hosting, the keys, and a plain-English runbook in your own Drive. Another developer can use those records to pick up the work. The handover includes the records another engineer would need to take over. That's the point of you owning it.

Yes, if your job runs the same way: quoted from drawings or measurements, scheduled across the shop, built, delivered or installed, and billed with deposits or terms. The tools are the same; the nouns change. Countertop shops on Moraware keep Moraware, and the build connects around it.

For residential HVAC, plumbing and electrical, we first check what your existing software already covers. Backshop takes those projects where there is a specific gap worth fixing.

Yes. That's the "finish what you started" build: we keep what works, document it, put it under monitoring and backups, and close the gaps. It's priced at the low end of the range because you've done part of the work.

One new build a month, with care plans alongside. If we’re booked, we’ll tell you the next open month on the Shop Map call rather than start late.

Backshop is based in California and works with shops anywhere in the US. The Shop Map is a phone or video call. Builds happen remotely, with agreed reviews of the tool on your own jobs. When being on the floor matters, for a schedule board or tablets at the saw, we'll talk about a visit.

A written agreement for each build: what we’re building, the price, the date, what's not included, the outside fees, and that it's yours on final payment. No ongoing commitment is required after the build. The care plan is month to month.
