JobTread
👤 Eric Fortenberry (Ran a general contracting firm as CEO, built JobTread to fix it, grew sales $5M to $8M, then sold the tool to fellow builders.)🌐 siteLinkedIn
A contractor built software to run his own $8M firm, then turned it into a subscription 7,500 builders pay for.
Will it work? · our read
Builder built it. The software is copyable — a dozen rivals sell it. What PE money can't buy is a founder who ran a contracting firm first and built the fix himself.

Revenue is undisclosed. JobTread is bootstrapped (no funding rounds, per Crunchbase) and private. First-party facts: 7,500+ customers, a $199/mo base price with all features, and 11,944% 3-yr revenue growth (Deloitte Fast 500 #6, FY2021-2024) — an award whose $5M+ FY2024 revenue floor is itself a data point. The \"$15M+ ARR\" is [our read]: 7,500 customers x $199/mo base alone is about $18M/yr before per-seat add-ons, so $15M+ is a conservative floor for 2026. Growjo's about $4.4M estimate is stale and low. Marked EST, not independently confirmed. The dogfooding story ($5M to $8M sales at his own GC firm), the awards (also Inc 5000 Southwest #5, DBJ Fast 50 #2), and the pricing are all first-party. Rival prices are shown as tiers, not fabricated numbers. We never score you.
