What they did

@sensarpensar's team vibe coded a production calendar that shows open gaps by crew, pulls jobs from the CRM, links to the photos app and approved quotes, and estimates job length from size, pitch and crew. It shows revenue and gross margin per job, crew and month.

How it went

They say the company now uses it every day as its source of truth for production, and that once a job is approved they already know where it fits.

Worth knowing

Built because off-the-shelf tools fought them. You own maintenance and data sync with the CRM.
