The Problem
Custom homebuilding has too many moving parts.
When financials, schedules, and homeowner communication live in separate systems, things fall through the cracks.
Scattered spreadsheets
Estimates in one file, schedules in another, invoices in a third. Information lives everywhere except where you need it.
Financial blind spots
You can't see real-time project profitability. Budget variances surface too late. Draw requests take days to assemble.
Homeowner communication gaps
Homeowners don't know what's happening. Selections slip. Approvals stall. Trust erodes when progress isn't visible.
Manual, repetitive work
Every estimate starts from scratch. Every inspection list is rebuilt. Every change order is a new document — not a connected workflow.

Connected Workflow
One lifecycle. Eight connected stages.
Every stage feeds the next. Estimates become budgets. Budgets become commitments. Commitments become invoices. Invoices become draws.
Estimate
Build detailed cost-plus or fixed-fee estimates from reusable templates. Define base house costs, allowances, and additional items with live percentage calculations.
Compare Bids
Send trade packages to subcontractors, receive competing bids, and compare them side by side with cost-code-level pricing reconciliation.
Approve Budget
Convert estimates into committed project budgets. Award subcontractors, generate agreements, and establish the financial baseline.
Manage Selections
Guide homeowners through structured selection processes with visual libraries, allowances, and trade-package-based decision workflows.
Execute Construction
Track construction through phases, tasks, schedules, and inspections. Document progress with photos and keep everyone informed.
Track Invoices and Draws
Process invoices against commitments, manage builder fee billing, and send transparent draw requests to homeowners for approval and payment.
Complete Inspections
Schedule and track inspections through the construction sequence. Manage corrections with photo evidence and preserve full inspection history.
Handoff and Warranty
Complete the homeowner handoff with a structured checklist, generate warranty coverage from templates, and manage warranty requests through to resolution.
Our Story
Built by a custom-home builder. For custom-home builders.
STYRN was created from firsthand custom-home building experience.
The work behind a custom home — estimates, bids, invoices, homeowner decisions, schedules — was always disconnected.
Spreadsheets and point tools left gaps. Builders needed one system that connected the entire lifecycle.
So we built it.
