Your spreadsheet can't warn you when a project is bleeding money.
CanTicket tracks time, tasks and costs against live budgets, flags at-risk jobs before you invoice, and syncs both ways with Xero. See project profit in real time — not at month-end.

How it works
From flying blind to full visibility in three steps
No rip-and-replace. Connect what you already run, track work in one place, and act while the margin's still there.
Step 1 · Connect
Connect Xero and your projects
Sync quotes & invoices live, both ways
Import active projects & cost rates
Set up staff, clients & project phases
Timesheets & budgets rolling out in beta
Step 2 · Track
Track time, tasks and costs in one place
Log time against live job budgets
Watch margin update as costs land
Split client vs internal work
No end-of-month reconciliation
Step 3 · Act
Act on alerts, not hindsight
Get flagged on margin erosion early
Catch overruns before you invoice
Adjust scope or invoice early
Protect profit while it's still there
The fix
One system for jobs, time, and profit visibility
CanTicket replaces the spreadsheet, basic accounting add-on, or simple task tool with a single financial project management layer that keeps delivery and profit in one place.
Live margin tracking
See project profitability update in real time as costs and hours are logged. Not after the project closes.
Accounting sync
Quotes and invoices sync live, both ways, with the accounting system you already run — so your margins stay tied to your real books, no double entry.
AI health alerts
Madi flags at-risk projects before they become write-offs, so you can act early — something no spreadsheet or basic tracker does.
Every feature, every seat
One simple price per seat — and every seat unlocks the whole suite. No tiers, no feature gating, no margin tracking locked behind a premium plan.
Automated invoicing
Convert tracked time and approved milestones into invoices without manual reconciliation. No more end-of-month marathons.
Works with your stack
Runs alongside Slack, Trello, Asana, and your existing delivery tools without forcing a full migration.
Your AI team
Three agents watching your margin, around the clock
Built into CanTicket — no extra seats. While your team delivers, they keep jobs profitable, admin handled, and your people out of burnout.

How does the Xero integration work?
Quotes and invoices sync live, both ways, with the Xero you already run — so your project margins always reflect your actual books, with no manual reconciliation. Xero sync is live today; timesheets and budgets are in beta, and included free on every plan.
Can CanTicket replace the stack of tools we pay for today?
For most teams, yes. Projects, time, tasks, costs, budgets and invoicing live in one place — so you can drop the separate time-tracker, the spreadsheet, and the reporting add-on. Keep the tools your team loves for chat or docs; CanTicket becomes the single source of truth for the work and the money behind it.
How much financial transparency do I actually get?
Full visibility, live. Every project shows real revenue, cost and margin as time and expenses land — no waiting for month-end. Roll it up to portfolio level to see which clients and jobs make money, or drill into a single task. The AI flags margin erosion, budget overruns and late invoicing before they hit your bottom line.
Do delivery teams need an accounting seat to see job health?
No. Your team manages tasks and tracks hours in CanTicket, while real-time profit and margin data flows from your project pipeline — no extra accounting seat and no exposure of sensitive financials required.
How long does it take to get started?
Minutes. Connect Xero, import your active projects and cost rates, and you're tracking live margins the same day — no migration project, no implementation fee.
What is job costing software, and how is it different from time tracking?
Job costing software compares what a job earns against what it actually costs to deliver — labour, expenses and purchases — so you can see margin per job. Time tracking only tells you where hours went; it can't tell you whether the job made money. CanTicket does both: hours are logged against a live budget, and real cost comes from Xero, so margin updates as the job runs.
How is CanTicket different from Asana, Trello or monday.com?
Those tools manage tasks. None of them know what a job costs or what it earns, so profit still gets worked out afterwards in a spreadsheet. CanTicket is a financial project management layer: the same board that tracks the work also tracks the money, with real cost pulled from Xero. You can keep using Asana or Trello alongside it — CanTicket becomes the source of truth for delivery and margin.
Can I use CanTicket without Xero?
Yes. Time, tasks, budgets and job tracking all work on their own, and you can enter cost rates manually. You lose the live cost feed, which is the part that makes margin real-time — so most teams connect Xero within the first day. Xero sync is included free on every plan.
Do you connect to MYOB or QuickBooks?
Xero is the integration that is live today, and it is the one the product is built around. MYOB and QuickBooks are on the roadmap rather than available now — if you run either, book a walkthrough and we will tell you honestly where they sit and whether CanTicket is worth your time yet.
Can I see profit by client, not just by project?
Yes. Every job rolls up to the client and to the portfolio, so you can see which clients are genuinely profitable and which ones quietly cost you money across many small jobs. You can also drill the other way — into a single task — to find where a job started slipping.
Does CanTicket suit my industry?
It fits any business that quotes work, delivers it over time and bills for it — agencies, consultancies, engineering and design firms, trades and construction, professional services and IT providers. The common thread is a job with a budget, hours against it and an invoice at the end, not a specific industry.
Is my financial data secure?
Your Xero connection uses Xero's own OAuth authorisation, so CanTicket never sees or stores your Xero password, and you can revoke access from inside Xero at any time. Delivery staff see job health and hours without being given access to your accounts — that is the point of the separate seats.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
It stays yours. You can export your projects, time and cost data before you go, and cancelling stops the subscription at the end of the period — there is no lock-in contract and no exit fee. Nothing is written back into Xero that you cannot see and undo.
How long is a walkthrough, and what happens on it?
Twenty minutes. We map your own numbers — team size, rates and where hours are leaking — onto a live CanTicket job so you can see the margin picture for your business rather than a generic demo. If it is not a fit, we will say so on the call.
Stop the leak
Stop guessing. Start seeing your margins.
Live project profit, AI health alerts, and two-way Xero sync — in one simple platform, one price per seat.
