We’ve answered the ones we hear most from builders and tradies.
NextMinute is purpose-built for Kiwi residential construction trades like builders, carpenters, landscapers, roofers, and renovation specialists. It’s designed for teams who manage multi-stage projects and want to ditch the paperwork, rather than just quick one-off call-out jobs.
Pricing starts from $199 per month (plus GST) for a team of 3-5 users. All our plans give you full access to every single feature, and there are no annoying lock-in contracts so you can cancel anytime if you need to.
It sure does. You can easily fire out progress payments or final invoices based on your actual costs and timesheets, which helps keep the cashflow steady throughout a long build.
NextMinute features two-way sync with Xero, MYOB, and QuickBooks. This means your financial data and supplier bills flow between systems automatically, so you aren't stuck entering the same info twice.
The job planner uses a drag-and-drop Gantt chart with dependencies. If you get a week of rain, you just move the start date of one task and the rest of the schedule automatically shifts to match.
We’ve got an Auckland-based support team who actually know the NZ building industry. You’ll be talking to a real local person, not an overseas call centre.
The back costing reports give you a real-time look at your actuals versus estimates. You can see your margins for the whole project or break it down by stage, so you know exactly where you're making money or where things are slipping.
You can jump on a 10-day free trial without even needing a credit card. Our team can even help import your current jobs and quotes during the trial so you can see how it works for your specific business.
The mobile app is simple for the boys on the tools. They can log their hours, snap job photos, add site diary notes, and even view site plans right from their phone or tablet while they're on-site.
Proudly so! NextMinute is New Zealand owned and operated. We're built specifically for the way Kiwi tradies work and we're used by over 5,000 tradies across NZ/AU.
