Dispatch · iPhone field tickets · Invoices into QuickBooks

Work done Tuesday. Invoiced Tuesday.

Paper field tickets take 5–7 days to crawl from the wellsite to an invoice. RigTab crews capture the ticket on an iPhone — no signal required — the office approves it, your rate card prices it, and the invoice posts into QuickBooks the same day the work happens.

RigTab dispatch board: a week of crew assignments in division colors, with the unassigned-job queue on the right

The dispatch board — crews down the side, the week across the top, every job block one tap from its ticket.

How it works

Three steps between the wellsite and the invoice.

The paper version of this has five: fill it out in the truck, drive it to the office, transcribe it, chase the missing signature, then bill it a week later.

01

Capture in the field

The crew opens the job on their iPhone, logs hours, equipment, and materials, and snaps receipt photos for third-party charges. Works with zero cell service — the ticket submits itself when the truck gets back in range.

02

Approve at the office

The ticket lands on the dispatch board the moment it syncs. Review it, kick it back for revision, or approve it. Every status change is stamped, and photos and signatures are write-once from the second they're captured.

03

Price off your rate card

RigTab prices the approved ticket against your rate card — hourly and day rates, travel versus operating time, per diem, minimums, pass-through markup — and the finished invoice posts into QuickBooks the same day, matching how you bill today.

The field app

The crew's side is an iPhone in a shirt pocket.

Every competitor hands crews a clipboard or a clunky web form. RigTab's field app is native iOS, built for gloves, glare, and no signal.

Built native, works at zero bars

A real iPhone app, not a web page in a wrapper. Drafts live on the phone; when the truck gets back in coverage the ticket submits itself and the crew gets a push that it landed.

Receipts that hold up

Third-party charges get a photo of the receipt, captured once and fingerprinted. When an operator disputes a line six weeks later, the receipt behind it hasn't moved.

Crews log quantities, never prices

The app captures hours, equipment, and materials — your rates, markups, and margins never leave the office.

RigTab field app on an iPhone: a draft field ticket with well, AFE, PO and lease fields, saving in the background

The paper trail, minus the paper

A real ticket, priced with real oilfield rates.

Every number below comes from a published oilfield rate card — boom-days, bundles, per-man crew hours, a vac truck by the hour. If your billing looks like this, RigTab already speaks it.

Built for oilfield billing

Your rate card, spoken fluently.

Generic field-service software bills like a plumber: one visit, one rate. Oilfield environmental work doesn't. RigTab's rate engine was built against real published rate cards, edge cases first.

And the ticket underneath it holds up: status moves through an enforced approval workflow, and site photos and signatures are write-once and pinned by content hash. When an operator disputes an invoice, the ticket it came from hasn't moved.

Dual rates
$25/hr or $250/day — whichever you bill
Travel vs operating

You keep QuickBooks

Invoices post themselves. Nobody retypes anything.

One click sends the finished invoice into QuickBooks — right customer, right income accounts, and no duplicates even if you click twice. Your books, your accountant, your process, minus the data entry.

Design partners

We're building this around a few real contractors. Yours could be one of them.

RigTab is being built for environmental-services contractors in the Permian Basin, and we're taking on a small number of design partners while the invoicing engine gets shaped.

What we're asking for

5–10 example invoices per service line, each with the field ticket it came from. We specifically want the messy ones: multi-crew overtime splits, standby, materials markup, call-out minimums, AFE-coded lines. Redact whatever you like — customer names, totals — the line structure is what teaches the rate engine, and we'll sign an NDA if you want one.

What you get back

A ticketing and invoicing system shaped around how you already bill, so your customers see the same invoice they've always paid, just a week sooner. And a direct say in the roadmap — design partners decide what gets built next.

Send us two invoices. We'll show you the same-day version.

One email starts it. No demo scheduling software, no sales sequence.
