Run construction payroll & compliance in minutes, not days.
Trayd helps trade contractors automate payroll, certified payroll, union compliance, field time tracking, and real-time job costing—all in one construction-specific back office platform.
Used by hundreds of contractors across the trades.
Construction payroll wasn't built for generic payroll software.
Crews move between jobs, classifications, rates, unions, and states—every single week. ADP, QuickBooks, and Paychex weren't designed for that reality.
Manual timesheet review
Chasing paper cards, texts, and photos every Monday morning. Hours lost fixing what the field forgot.
Special rates & exceptions
Shift differentials, per diems, travel time, and mid-day rate switches calculated by hand.
Union & prevailing wage rules
Multi-local reciprocity, fringe splits, and dues remittance that no generic payroll system understands.
Certified payroll reports
Rebuilding WH-347, LCPtracker, and state forms every Friday—hoping the numbers tie out.
Delayed labor cost visibility
Job costs land two weeks after the crew left the site. Margin leaks you find in month-end.
Disconnected systems
Timesheets in one tool, payroll in another, HR in a spreadsheet, accounting in a fourth. Nothing talks.
Recover 70+ hours of back-office work every week.
