The problem
Run on the wrong tools, the work runs you.
Lost leads
Early conversations live in personal WhatsApp threads. The pipeline only sees the wins, never the warnings.
Cost blindness
Actual project cost vs the contract isn't visible until end-of-project — by which time the margin has already gone.
Accountability gaps
Who owns this snag? Who's chasing this deliverable? Who's running this client? Often: nobody, until it's late.
What it does
One workspace, end to end.
From the first call to the snag close-out — and every cost, every deliverable, every site visit in between.
Pipeline that speaks your language
Leads, proposals, on-site, completed. Configure the stages your firm actually uses, not the SaaS-pipeline jargon.
Activities, everywhere
Log a call, a meeting, or a site visit on any lead, client or project — with @mentions, attendees, and deliverables that get assigned to the right person.
Live profit margin
Contracted value, actual cost, end-of-project value, and live margin on every project. Stop finding out in December what the year actually looked like.
Snag list with photos
Capture site issues from your phone, with photos and cost impact. Roll up into project P&L automatically.
Notifications that find their target
Assignments, @mentions, and a daily digest of what's due. The right person hears it; nothing slips into a group chat and disappears.
Reports that matter
Pipeline value by stage, projects at risk, profitability by project, team activity. Export to CSV or PDF.
Built on real work
Built on real work, not a whiteboard.
Foreground started inside a working fit-out firm — built in the open, on live projects, by the people running them. Every feature exists because someone needed it on a Tuesday morning, on a site, with a client waiting.
That's why the pipeline speaks the language of the trade. Why the cost log sits next to the project. Why the snag list opens straight to the camera. The product looks the way it does because the work looks the way it does.
Zero conversations lost between sales and operations.
Not at the end of the year.

FAQ
Questions answered.
Is this for me?
If you run a construction, fit-out, design or project-services firm with 5 – 50 staff, yes. Foreground is purpose-built for the way that work flows.
Why not HubSpot, Salesforce, or Pipedrive?
Those are sales pipelines. Foreground is a sales pipeline and a project tracker, with construction-specific cost logs, variations and snag tools. One tool instead of three.
Can I export my data?
Yes. Reports export to CSV or PDF, and your full account data is available on request as a JSON archive. Your data is yours.
Is it available now?
Yes. Foreground is live and onboarding firms today. Sign up below and we'll get your workspace set up.
