Your company organized, under your brand, from first contact to final payment.

Controller is more than a CRM: it is the system that runs your whole construction and remodeling company, from the lead to the profit of every job. Sales, estimates, contracts, invoicing, projects and finances in one place. It carries your company's name and colors, and we set everything up for you in up to 14 days.

Controller in 1 minute.

More than a CRM: the lead comes in on its own, the estimate and the contract come out ready, the client signs on the phone, and you see the profit of every project. All under your company's brand.

The challenge

You know how to build. It's the office that eats your time.

People who start on the job site and open their own company master the technical side. What holds growth back is the paperwork: leads lost on the phone, estimates in Word, printed contracts, late invoices and no idea of the real profit on each job.

Estimate requests come in from the website, WhatsApp and ads, and some never get an answer.
Each estimate takes almost an hour between photos, text and PDF.
Printed contracts, in-person signatures and prices that change with no record.
Invoices made by hand and payments nobody checks.
Forgotten follow-ups: the client signs with the competitor who called first.
End of the month and no idea if the company made a profit or just moved money around.
14 h/week

lost to non-productive work by construction professionals: searching for data, fixing mistakes, resolving conflicts.

The solution

One system, from lead to profit, without typing anything twice.

Each step feeds the next: the website request becomes an opportunity, the opportunity becomes an estimate, the estimate becomes a signed contract, the contract becomes a project and an invoice, and every payment lands in your financials.

1

Lead comes in

From the website, an ad or SMS, already tagged with its campaign and a call-back task.

2

Sales pipeline

Stages, follow-ups, site visits and SMS conversations in one place.

3

Estimate

A proposal with the design photos, emailed in minutes.

4

Contract

Generated from the project data and signed on the client's phone.

5

Project

Production checklist, install date and the crew's calendar.

6

Invoicing

Invoice with a payment link. What comes in is recorded automatically.

7

Profit

Budget vs. actual per project, monthly profit and ad return.

Done for you

You don't have to configure anything. We set up Controller with your brand, connect QuickBooks, DocuSign and SMS, import your clients and train your team. You keep ownership of your accounts and your data.

Under your brand

Your clients see your company, never ours.

Controller is delivered with your company's name, logo, colors and fonts. Estimates, contracts, emails and messages go out with your identity, and your team works in a system that looks like you.

Controller at Wall & Design, in Orlando: the brand's green and gold, in use every day.

Illustrative example: the same Controller with your brand's colors, logo and fonts.

Frequently asked questions

Before we talk

Do I need to switch my QuickBooks or DocuSign?

No. Controller connects to the accounts your company already has. If you don't have them yet, we help you pick the cheapest plan that does the job.

Does it work on the phone?

Yes. Controller opens in the browser on your computer and phone, and can be installed on the home screen like an app, with alerts for new leads and messages.

Is the system in English?

Everything your client receives (estimate, contract, invoice, emails) goes out in English, with your brand. Your team's screens are in Portuguese today, and our support speaks English and Portuguese.

Is my data safe?

Each company gets its own system and its own database, with an individual login for every person and permissions by role. Access is encrypted (HTTPS) and our hosting and database admin accounts use two-factor authentication. See our security page.

Is my data locked in the system?

No. The data belongs to your company. You can export everything whenever you want, and your QuickBooks, DocuSign and SMS accounts stay in your name.

Is there a contract term?

Not on the monthly plan: cancel whenever you want. In the first 30 days, we refund the monthly fee. The annual plan comes with 2 months off and free setup on Pro.

Does it fit my trade?

Controller was built for companies that sell by estimate and deliver by project: millwork, cabinets, remodeling, flooring, painting, countertops, installations. In our first conversation we show how it fits your workflow.

Our story

Born from practice, not theory.

The idea for Controller came from looking closely at a family company with more than 20 years in business. Even with all the progress in technology, it was still managed the old way: everyone worked differently, information was scattered and no one had the full picture of the company.

Many tools were tried. The only thing that really worked was bringing everything the company needs into one place: sales, estimates, contracts, invoicing, projects and financials, with each person on their own login and each piece of information in its place.

To take the solution further, the founder opened Wall & Design, a custom furniture company in Orlando where Controller runs every day. Every feature exists because it was needed in practice. Today Resstel Solutions brings the same system to other companies, and Controller is the company's first solution.
