Three stages. Built for renovation jobs from $50k to $300k.
Build the quote on your phone in the ute, with milestone stages baked in. Send a professional proposal to the homeowner in two taps.
The homeowner pays their deposit straight to you — Stagex does not collect or hold customer funds. Log the payment against the job and it's tracked from day one.
As each stage completes, the homeowner signs it off in their portal and the milestone is marked complete in your job record — ready to invoice immediately.
Stagex generates the timestamped milestone, quote, and sign-off records that Australian construction regulators expect — without the spreadsheets.
Statutory progress-payment rules apply to many residential renovation contracts in Victoria. Stagex's milestone records — timestamped quotes, sign-offs and invoices — give you the paper trail to support a payment claim; always confirm your specific obligations with your adviser.
Stagex tracks retention amounts per milestone in your job record and reminds you of the dates your entitlement falls due. The retained funds themselves are held under your contract with the client, not by Stagex.
Project Trust Account obligations require segregated client funds and auditable disbursement records. Stagex is not a trust account and does not discharge those obligations, but its per-milestone tracking and invoice records give you an auditable trail to hand your accountant.
Stagex maintains the per-job evidence pack — contracts, milestone sign-offs, photos, dispute history — that the Home Building Compensation Fund needs if a claim is ever lodged.
Stagex is a software platform, not a law firm. We provide the audit trail your accountant and lawyer need — always confirm specific obligations with your professional advisers.
Build a verified reputation that wins more work. Clients can verify your badge instantly at stagex.com.au/trust-badge/verify.
Everything you need to track your jobs and get paid on time.
Break every job into staged milestones with client sign-off required at each one, so nobody's guessing what's done or what's owed.
Every milestone, approval and sign-off timestamped and tamper-evident — a clear record if a dispute ever comes up.
The moment a milestone is signed off, generate the invoice for that stage — no manual line-item re-entry, no delay chasing paperwork.
Raise a dispute against a milestone and attach photos, messages and documents. Stagex keeps a timestamped record for both sides — it does not adjudicate or move money.
No more guessing what's owed. Break the job into milestones with your customer up front, so both of you know exactly what's due at each stage.
No 30-day Net terms. No phone tag. Your customer approves each milestone from their own portal, and the invoice for that stage is ready the moment they do.
Every milestone, sign-off and piece of evidence is timestamped. If a customer disputes the work, you've got the paper trail.
One flat monthly subscription. No transaction fees, no hidden costs.
