About Job Hammers

What is Job Hammers?

Job Hammers is a WhatsApp-first construction management platform designed for contractors, subcontractors, and construction teams who already live in WhatsApp.

Instead of forcing you to learn yet another complicated app, Job Hammers brings project management, time tracking, estimates, and safety compliance directly into WhatsApp—where your crew already communicates.

Why WhatsApp? Why not a traditional app?

Because that's where your team already is.

Construction crews aren't sitting at desks checking emails. They're on job sites, in trucks, covered in dust. They use WhatsApp because it's:

  • Fast — no app switching
  • Simple — everyone knows how to use it
  • Reliable — works on cheap phones, slow networks
  • Already adopted — no training required

What are the 4 "Hammers"?

📋 LogHammer — Daily job logs and site reporting. Voice message → timestamped log entry.

💰 ChargeHammer — Time tracking and billing. GPS-verified clock in/out via WhatsApp.

📜 CodeHammer — Building code lookups. Snap a photo, get the relevant code.

🦺 SafeHammer — Digital safety docs. Toolbox talks, incident reports, certifications.

Each module works independently or together. Start with one, add more as you need them.

  2. Choose which Hammers you need
  3. Add your WhatsApp number
  4. Receive setup link in WhatsApp
  5. Start using immediately

No complicated installs, no training sessions, no manuals.

Do I need to download an app?

No. Job Hammers works inside WhatsApp. No separate app to download or maintain.

You interact with Job Hammers by messaging our WhatsApp bot—it handles all the backend work while you stay in WhatsApp.

Does my whole team need WhatsApp?

Yes—but they probably already have it.

WhatsApp has 2+ billion users worldwide. It's free and works on any smartphone, even older devices.

Bonus: WhatsApp works great on poor network connections (2G/3G) and doesn't burn through data.

How It Works

How does LogHammer work for daily reports?

Simple as sending a WhatsApp message:

  1. At the end of the day, send a voice message or text
  2. LogHammer asks quick questions: What did you complete? Any issues?
  3. Attach photos if needed
  4. Hit send—done.

LogHammer timestamps, organizes by project, and makes it searchable. No forms. Just a conversation.

How does ChargeHammer track crew hours?

GPS-verified clock in/out via WhatsApp:

  1. Worker arrives on site, messages "Clock in"
  2. ChargeHammer captures GPS + timestamp
  3. Worker messages "Clock out" when leaving
  4. Hours calculated, stored in timesheet

Admin view: See who's on site, when they clocked in, total hours—all in real-time.

Can ChargeHammer prevent buddy punching?

Yes—through GPS verification.

ChargeHammer records GPS location of every clock-in/out. If someone tries to clock in from 50 miles away, you'll see it.

Optional: Geo-fencing (must be within X meters of job site) and photo verification.

Features & Capabilities

Can I attach photos and videos?

Yes. Just send photos/videos in WhatsApp—LogHammer automatically attaches them.

Use cases: Progress photos, damage documentation, before/after shots, equipment issues.

Can I search old logs or timesheets?

Yes—full-text search.

Message with: "Show logs from last week" or "Find logs with keyword 'electrical'" or "Timesheet for John in October"

Results are instant.

Can I export data?

Yes. Exports in common formats:

  • CSV — for Excel, Google Sheets
  • PDF — for client-facing reports
  • API — for accounting software (enterprise tier)

Does it integrate with QuickBooks, Xero?

Direct integrations are in development. Currently, export timesheets/invoices as CSV/PDF and import manually.

Coming soon: QuickBooks, Xero, Sage integrations.

Security & Privacy

Is my data secure?

Yes. Job Hammers uses:

  • End-to-end encryption (via WhatsApp)

Your data is protected in transit and at rest.
