Log materials, fuel, tools, and overhead costs alongside your revenue so you can see what you're actually making — not just what you're billing.
Try Scout Pro Free — $49/monthRevenue tells you how much you billed. Profit tells you how much you kept. Most small contractors track revenue carefully but expense tracking is inconsistent — receipts in a folder, a note on a phone, a vague recollection of what was spent at the supply house last Tuesday.
When expenses aren't tracked, you can't calculate true job profitability. A job that looked like it made $800 might have actually cost $400 in materials, putting real profit at $400 — or less, after labor. Without tracking this, you're quoting blind.
Scout Pro's expense tracking is built into the same dashboard as your revenue and P&L — so you always see the full financial picture in one place.
Log the cost of materials used on any job. See material costs against the job's revenue.
Track fuel costs and business mileage. Both feed into your total expense and P&L view.
Log tool purchases, repairs, and rental costs as business expenses.
Track ongoing business costs like insurance, subscriptions, and office supplies.
View total expenses by period, category, or job. Export for your accountant.
Expenses sync to QuickBooks alongside invoices and payments.
Expense tracking, revenue reporting, and P&L are all included in the same $49/month plan.
