When you work alone, the paperwork still has to get done.

For self-employed tradespeople, the same person who visits the job, does the work, answers the customer, and gives the price often has to create the quote or invoice too.

Timio is designed for that workflow: simple documents from your phone, without needing office software, shared team access, or a complicated back-office setup.

  • Create paperwork from the Android phone you already carry.
  • Keep customer records, jobs, items, and documents together.
  • Share professional PDFs using the apps available on your device.

A simple flow for one-person trade work.

1

Create the quote

Add the customer, items, prices, VAT/tax settings, notes, and terms.

2

Send the PDF

Share a clean professional quote from your phone.

3

Convert accepted work into an invoice

Move from quote to billed work without typing the same job again.

4

Record payment clearly

Track invoice payments, issue receipt PDFs from recorded payments, and generate customer statements when needed.

Who Timio is built for

Timio is a strong fit for people who handle their own customer paperwork from one phone.

  • Self-employed plumbers
  • Solo electricians
  • Independent HVAC technicians
  • Handymen
  • Installers
  • Maintenance technicians
  • Freelancers
  • Sole traders
  • Owner-operators
  • One-person service businesses

If you run a larger business that needs shared access, cloud sync, or multiple team members working on the same records, Timio may not yet be the right fit for that workflow.

The paperwork tools self-employed tradespeople actually need.

Quotes

Prepare clear professional quotations before work starts.

Invoices

Create invoices and track payment progress from recorded payments.

Receipts

Generate receipt PDFs from recorded invoice payments.

Customer statements

Show invoice and payment activity for a selected period.

Customers and items

Save repeat customer details, products, and services so future documents are faster to create.

Professional PDFs

Preview or share quotes, invoices, receipts, and statements using the apps available on your device.

Made for practical work, not office complexity.

Timio is designed for self-employed people who want their paperwork close at hand while they are working on the move. It keeps the focus on everyday records — customers, jobs, items, quotes, invoices, receipts, statements, reports, and accountant exports — without pretending to be full accounting software or a multi-user office platform.

  • Keep practical records close to the job.
  • Use saved customers, jobs, and items to avoid repeated typing.
  • Export records for accountant handover when needed.

Local-first by default.

Timio stores business records locally on the user’s device by default. The current version does not require a Timio account, login, or Timio cloud sync.

Because Timio is local-first, users should be careful before changing devices, deleting the app, clearing app data, or resetting their phone.

  • Business records are stored on the device by default.
  • No Timio account is required in the current version.
  • No Timio cloud sync is required in the current version.

Do the paperwork from the same phone you carry to the job.

Timio helps self-employed tradespeople create quotes, invoices, receipts, customer statements, and professional PDFs without complicated office software.
