Materials, POs and Invoices.Tracked by AI - in one place

Three jobs. One place.
An openings shop used to run on follow-ups. Workflows and AI sit on the same spine as the PO, the hardware, and the invoice, so the job moves without the chase.
01
PO Lifecycle
Every purchase order from issued to paid: confirmations, receipts, and invoices on the same spine. No hunting across email and job folders.
02
Material Tracking
Live status in one portal. PMs see where doors, frames, and hardware are — distributor, warehouse, or jobsite — without pinging five people.
03
AP Automation
Invoices and order confirmations matched to the PO. A revised hardware schedule, a restock fee, a quiet price bump — flagged before you pay. A human still approves.
Status without the follow-up.
PMs should not spend the day asking the distributor, the warehouse, and the field where the frames are. Hinges surfaces tracking updates in one view: delays, ETAs, receipts. The team looks at the portal instead of starting another thread.

Catch the error before you pay it.
Every supplier invoice and order confirmation is checked against the PO. A hardware-schedule revision, a restock fee, a price bump on the closer — flagged with the dollar impact. Nothing auto-approves. Your team has the last click, then it posts to accounting.
The job runs on follow-ups. Errors still get paid.
PMs chase status across distributors and inboxes. AP still keys invoices by hand. Doors, frames, and hardware sit between the PO and the opening with no single owner of the truth.
Ops statement
Typical Division 8 shop · one busy week
The status chase
PMs ping vendors, warehouse, AP, and the field for the same update. Status lives in texts.
The silent change
The confirmation came back with a price bump on the hardware. It landed in a portal nobody opens.
Materials in limbo
Frames issued, maybe shipped, maybe sitting at the distributor. Nobody has one picture of the PO.
The invoice pile
Find the PO, compare lines, code it. Hundreds of times a month.

Your team should not be the status desk. Hinges is the place.
Connect your project and accounting software once. Slack and Teams stay where they are. POs, deliveries, and invoices for the opening land in Hinges. Everyone looks at the same picture.
Hinges works where the team already is.
Slack. Microsoft Teams. The project and accounting software you already run. Hinges sits in the middle. It doesn’t ask anyone to switch chats.

Match and post
The invoice is checked against the PO. Flags get a human click, then it posts to accounting with your jobs and codes. Close without the pile.

Built for PMs, not just AP.
Door, frame, and hardware updates land in the same portal as the PO and the invoice. Nobody has to take constant follow-ups with the distributor, warehouse, or the field. Open Hinges. See where the hardware is.
What changes when the job has a portal
Less chase. Fewer surprises. A last click that is still yours.

A custom solution for how you actually run.
Every openings shop closes differently. We don’t publish a rate card. We build a custom solution around your volume, your jobs, and the tools your team already uses.
Custom, not a SKU
We shape the workflows, the AI, and the rollout to the operation you run. Not a starter plan that unlocks later.
How we size it
Invoice volume, jobs in flight, entities, and who needs to live in Hinges.
Who it fits
Doors, Frames & Hardware subcontractors. We quote the shop you actually run.
Custom solution
Built for you.
Workflows, AI, and the full product. Quoted to your operation.
