All examples

Mac does

Checks identity and groups the inputs into a billing packet

You decide

The owner approves markup, labor, email, and accounting actions

Comes out

A manual-ready invoice review packet

The job

What happened before. What the Mac did.

Before

Supplier invoices were printed, spread across a table, and sorted into jobs by hand.

What the Mac did

DOBE completed a backup-first move from the old office setup to a clean, dedicated MacBook workspace.

The receipt

  • 01Old computer to dedicated MacBook cutover
  • 02Clean contractor workspace
  • 03Live QuickBooks Online read verified
  • 04Client-local Outlook connection verified

How it worked

Work in. Work done.

  1. 01The operator selects invoice inputs for a manual run.
  2. 02The workflow checks that the customer label agrees with the selected job.
  3. 03Selected supplier invoices are grouped into a review packet.
  4. 04The owner reviews proposed markup, labor, and fixed adjustments.

What came out

The finished work.

Why it matters

The pilot keeps the owner's judgment in the process instead of pretending every contractor invoice is clean or obvious.

What came out

The support build now has a clean AI MacBook workspace with verified QuickBooks Online and Outlook connections.
