I'd rather build TradeDraft around 50 trades who tell me what's wrong than launch quietly and hope it's right.

Why I'm doing this
I spent years in UK construction watching good trades lose money on jobs that should have paid. A price guessed in the van. VAT and CIS worked out wrong. No real margin left at the end.
TradeDraft is the tool I wished those trades had, and I don't want to launch it on a stranger's say-so. I want 50 real trades putting it through real jobs, telling me where it's clumsy so I can sharpen it. In return, you pay less than anyone who comes after you, for as long as you stay.

Lock in £19 for life
Nothing is charged until the trial ends. After that it is £19, and for as long as you stay it never moves.
When the 50 are gone, it's £29 for everyone.

Questions, answered straight.
What is TradeDraft, exactly?
TradeDraft is a quoting app for UK trades. You price a job line by line from your own rates, it handles VAT, CIS and the Domestic Reverse Charge, warns you if the margin is thin, and produces a branded quote your client can accept and pay a deposit on online. Building quotes is free; the subscription unlocks sending and downloading.
What do I actually have to do as a founder?
Use TradeDraft on your real jobs and tell me the truth about it, good or bad. That is the main thing. If you end up genuinely happy with it, I'd ask to use a short line from you with your first name, trade and town. Say no and you keep the £19 price anyway.
Why only 50?
Because I can actually listen to 50. I want to read every message, fix what's clumsy, and build the next piece around what real trades tell me. Open it to everyone and the feedback turns into a queue I can't keep up with. Fifty is small enough that your voice genuinely counts.
Is the £19 really locked, or does it creep up later?
It is locked for as long as your subscription stays continuously active. When the public price rises, yours doesn't. The only way to lose the founder rate is to cancel and come back later, at the price in force then. There is nothing buried in the small print.
What happens when all 50 places are gone?
The offer closes. After that the plan is £29 a month or £290 a year, with the same features, the same free trial and the same terms.
Do I need a card, or can I try it first?
No card. Send the claim form and your place is held. Building quotes is free with no account, and your 14-day free trial starts when you first send or download a quote — still no card. Try it on a real job, then decide. You only add a card when the trial ends and you choose to subscribe at the founder price, billed securely through Stripe.
Founding 50 is limited to the first 50 UK-based trade businesses to claim a place, one place per business. The £19/month founder price (or £190/year) is locked for as long as your subscription stays continuously active, in place of the standard £29/month (£290/year). If you cancel, the founder rate ends; any future re-subscription is at the public price in force at that time. Prices are not subject to VAT. Billing is handled securely by Stripe and your data is stored in the UK. Cancel any time; monthly has no minimum term. Testimonials are only ever used with your permission. Once 50 places are taken, the offer closes and will not be reopened.
