Built from the inside out. Not the boardroom down.
I was in the room when this was broken. I'm not a suit with a pitch deck — I'm a guy from Mitchell, MB who paid in blood, sweat, and tears to understand what's actually wrong with time tracking in this industry.
I was there before GPS was even a thing on a job site.
I've watched the technology wave come through the trades. And I've watched the suits follow right behind it, walking onto job sites with their apps and their onboarding sessions, telling us what we were doing wrong. It didn't land. It still doesn't. Because they built software for an industry they've never worked in.
I've run a stucco crew. I've trained dozens of workers and been trained by some of the best in the business. And the one thing that never changes: the hardest workers — the ones showing up in the rain, grinding through the tough days — often go unnoticed. Meanwhile the guy who's figured out how to look busy gets the same cheque. That's not right, and every honest manager knows it.
FieldClock is built to fix that. Workers can see exactly what they're earning, right on their phone — a reminder of why they're out there on the hard days. Managers get real data on who's actually producing. In the trades, there's a saying: let the cream rise to the top. That's what this is for.
I've done a lot of different work: stucco and exteriors, carpentry, bricklaying, heavy equipment, trucking, tractor work, computer repair, junkyard co-owner, special needs home manager, gas jockey, chicken catching. I'm not listing that to impress anyone. I'm listing it because I know what a hard day costs a person — and I know how much it matters to get paid right for it.
