Run your crew,
not your paperwork.
The Early Bird gives small construction teams one place to track jobs, clock hours, capture photos, and keep everyone on the same page — from the field to the office.
Everything your crew needs.
No more juggling spreadsheets, group texts, and paper timesheets.
Job tracking
Create jobs, assign crew, track progress with photos and notes. See everything from one dashboard.
Time cards
Your crew clocks in from their phone. You see hours, overtime, and labor costs in real time.
Photo docs
Every photo is tagged to a job automatically. AI captions and before/after tracking built in.
Crew management
Invite your team with a text. Set roles, permissions, and pay rates. See who's on the clock.
Job messaging
Chat by job or by crew. Share photos, tag people, keep the conversation where the work is.
Payroll ready
Hours roll into a payroll-ready report. Regular, overtime, per-job — all broken down for you.
