A quoting tool for Australian electricians, plumbers, and other tradespeople that turns marked-up job photos into priced, signed-ready quotes.

Why it surfaced

TradieSketch has a strong, concrete mechanic: draw cable runs, fittings, pipes, or taps directly onto a customer’s photo, and the marks become priced line items. It then bundles signatures, time-stamped certificates, deposits, follow-ups, and crew access into a flat-price workflow built around the realities of quoting from the ute.

August 10’s newborn domains include a mock cryptid council that specifically discourages ham, a vintage phone collecting messages for Twyla’s 70th, a 4.5-meter dish measuring Galactic hydrogen at 1420 MHz, and an open index that found 530 sites permitting GPTBot in robots.txt while refusing it at the server.
