Built for your kind of business
Pick your trade. See what you’d get.
Ciolk renames itself for the business it runs: what every photo is checked for, what the schedule is called, how money moves. A roofer, a salon, a kitchen and a clinic each get their own.
Roofing
Money moves like this: Quote → deposit → job → invoice.
Every photo is checked for
- every shingle tab along each course
- flashing at every wall, chimney, skylight and valley
- a boot or collar on every pipe and vent
- drip edge along the eaves and rakes
- ridge cap along the whole ridge
Anything missing is marked on the photo, beside what is damaged.
Your day, in your words
The schedule is your Project Timeline; your people are roofers, and the work is replacements.

- 2 Deck inspection

One job, start to finish
From one photo to a paid deposit — and the proof.
The real product, one real job: a shift console with the trim off, photographed in a bay, read in depth, quoted to the customer's phone, run on the owner's day, and sealed.
- 01 · Photograph it
One photo in. Findings marked on it, priced on the spot.
From the camera or the camera roll. Every finding is outlined on the part it belongs to, what should be there and is not is marked too, and a priced draft is ready while you are still standing at the work.
- Every finding outlined and numbered on the photo
- A Review flag wherever the read is unsure — never a made-up percentage
- A priced first draft you check; nothing is sent as-is

Then the report an expert would hand over.
Each part it can see and the state it is in, every finding explained, what gets worse if it is left and when, the order of work, and plain words for the customer.
- Component status: sound, affected, missing, to watch
- Risks by horizon — now, weeks, months
- What the photo could not show, said plainly

They read it, accept it and pay the deposit — on their phone.
The quote goes out as a link. No app, no account: the customer types their name to accept and pays the deposit by card. The job books itself when the money lands.
- Accept with a typed name, deposit by card
- Only the latest version can ever be paid
- Every money event sealed so it verifies without us

And the whole day on one screen.
Money in this week, quotes waiting on a customer, jobs in progress, the bays booked — and what is left to set up. Every number traces to the rows behind it.
- Deposits, outstanding and awaiting, from real payments
- Today's book across bays, chairs or crews
- An empty card says what fills it — never a placeholder number

Getting started
Bring what you have. Take it with you.
The first hour is short, the data stays yours, and leaving is as easy as starting.
See it working before your own work is in it
One switch fills the workspace with a year of a fictional business of your type — clients, quotes, jobs, invoices and payments — and one step takes all of it out again.
Bring the lists you already keep
Clients, a service menu, a materials list or your price book, from a CSV or an Excel workbook. Dates, formulas and numbers come through as you see them.
Your prices, confirmed by you
Starting prices are drafts. Nothing reaches a customer until you confirm or change each line, and what you type becomes your price book.
Leave whenever you like
Every list exports as CSV and every record as a file anyone can verify, on every plan. Cancel from your billing page; there is no call to make.
The platform

Solid pills are live today; dashed ones need an account, a device or some data first. Some pages come with a kind of business: a kitchen gets Menu, Checklists and Daily close; a roofer does not. Each trade’s page lists what that business gets, and inside the app the Set up page states each blocker in plain words.
Built like it handles your money
Because it does.
- Money. Prices are computed on our servers in exact cents, and a client can never pay an old or altered quote.
- Evidence. Every result is sealed with a fingerprint anyone can check; history cannot be quietly edited, including by us.
- Honesty. No invented numbers. When the data is not there, the screen names exactly what is missing.
Live proof

Who built it
Built by one person who has worked the jobs.
I grew up on the South Side of Chicago in a working-class house. My dad is a carpenter and my mom is a dental hygienist. Before I wrote a line of code I worked carpentry, sold insurance, and worked at 7 Brew and at Bettenhausen. Ciolk is my first app, built for the problems I saw in every one of them.
There is no ticket queue between you and the fix: the person who answers your email wrote the code, and held it back until it was right.

Questions
The five people ask first
What happens on day 15?
Your card is charged for the plan you chose and the subscription starts. No card is needed to sign up: after setup and your first result, Ciolk asks for one and shows the exact date of the first charge, 14 days out. Stripe holds the payment method and issues the first invoice when the trial ends, so nothing is charged on the day you add it and nothing is charged twice.
If you cancel before day 15, that charge never happens. Canceling is done from the billing page, which opens Stripe's customer portal.
Nothing else about the account changes on day 15. Your clients, quotes, jobs and photos are exactly where you left them. The one difference is the meter: the trial includes 50 AI actions, and from day 15 the allowance becomes your plan's monthly count — 300 on Operator, 1,500 on Command, 6,000 on Sovereign.
Why is there no free tier?
Because every AI action has a real cost behind it. When you capture a set of photos and get an estimate back, a model is reading those photos and writing that estimate, and we pay for that call whether or not you ever pay us. A free tier would mean either capping it so tightly that it cannot show you what the product does with a real job, or quietly recovering the cost from the people who do pay. We would rather give you 14 full days with your own work and 50 actions to run through it, charge nothing until day 15, and let you cancel from the billing page if it is not earning its place.
What counts as an AI action?
One model call. Concretely: one photo read; the outline pass and the full written report that follow it on their own (one each, so a one-photo job is three actions with the default settings, and one if you switch the two off under Settings → Photo reads); one search phrase turned into a search; one What-if scenario written up; one supply invoice read; one industry generation. A capture of several photos is one read per area photographed plus one outline pass per photo. Each of those sends work to a model, and each is one action against your monthly allowance.
Everything else stays off the meter: reading anything, writing a quote, sending an invoice, scheduling, generating a PDF, verifying a sealed record, importing clients, exporting CSV. You can run the whole day-to-day of the business without spending an action. Actions are only spent when the AI is actually doing work for you.
A video is turned into up to 30 still frames on your device; every 6 frames is one action.
The billing page shows a live count against the allowance: 300 a month on Operator, 1,500 on Command, 6,000 on Sovereign, and 50 during the trial.
How do I cancel and what happens to my data?
Open the billing page and choose Manage or cancel. That opens Stripe's customer portal, where canceling is one confirmation. There is no call to make, no form and no email to send.
Canceling does not end access on the spot. You keep everything through the end of the period you already paid for, and the app shows the date. After that date the paid pages lock; you can still sign in to the billing page to pick a plan again.
Your data is not deleted when you cancel. Export any list as CSV while you still have access, or ask afterwards and we will send a full account export. If you want the account and its data removed, ask and we will delete it.
Who owns my photos and data?
You do. The photos you capture, the estimates, the quotes, the client records, the corrections you make — all of it is yours. Ciolk holds it to run the product for you and for nothing else.
That has practical consequences. Export any list as CSV whenever you like, from any plan. Ask for a full account export and you get everything. Ask for deletion and the account and its data are removed. None of that needs a reason, and none of it is gated behind a support tier.
We do not sell it, share it with other customers, or use it to train models. The calibration that happens from your corrections applies only to your own business's estimates. The full statement of what is stored, where and under what terms is on the security page.
A few minutes to your first real result.
Pick your kind of business, see your screen, bring your list if you have one, and photograph one thing — or run the sample. No card to start; nothing is charged for 14 days.
