Tiny home configurator
Layouts, lengths, finishes and packages with live pricing, weights and a 3D or plan preview.
Tiny home builder software: configurators & build tracking
Tiny home builders: designed online, tracked to the driveway. Build more, quote less.
Enquiries asking the same five questions, options priced on a spreadsheet, a weight calc nobody trusts and buyers texting for photos of their frame. We build tiny home systems that let people design their home online, pay a deposit and follow it from the trailer to the driveway. Then we host them and look after them.
Looking for tiny home configurator or build tracking software?
Tiny home buyers love customising. Loft or single level, galley or L-shaped kitchen, timber or Colorbond cladding, solar, tanks and a composting toilet. Every choice changes the price, the lead time and the weight on the trailer. Most builders end up answering it all by email, adding it up in a spreadsheet and hoping the final build still sits under the ATM.
Wollopit builds custom software for tiny home builders around how your workshop actually runs. Buyers design their home online with live pricing and weight. Deposits and stage payments are paid online. Every build has its own stage board, materials list and photo feed the owner can follow. Delivery, handover and warranty are all in the same place. We connect the tools you already like, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers.
01The problems
What we hear from tiny home builders
Does your tiny home building business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.
Most tiny home builders we talk to are brilliant on the tools and run the office on email, spreadsheets and a whiteboard in the shed. That works fine until there are six builds on the floor.
- The problemThe same questions all dayHow big, how much, can I get a bath, do you do off-grid? Every enquiry is the same email written from scratch.How we fix itAn online configurator with live pricing so buyers answer most of their own questions before they contact you.
- The problemOptions priced on spreadsheetsQuotes are added up by hand, last year's prices sneak in and nobody's sure the margin survived.How we fix itOptions that price themselves from one price list you update once, with your margins built in.
- The problemWeight creep on the trailerThe buyer adds a stone benchtop, a bath and a 400L tank. Nobody checks the weight until it's on the scales.How we fix itEvery option carries a weight. The configurator tracks it against the trailer's ATM and warns before it goes over.
- The problemNobody knows when their build startsBuild slots live in someone's head. Buyers ask for a start date and get a guess.How we fix itA production calendar with build slots, bays and realistic start and finish dates buyers can see.
- The problemVariations by text messageOwners change their mind mid-build over SMS. The change gets made but never priced or signed off.How we fix itVariation requests with price, weight and time impact that the owner approves online before work starts.
- The problemDeposits matched by handBank transfers come in with no reference and someone spends Friday matching them to builds.How we fix itDeposits and stage payments paid online by card or bank, reconciled straight into Xero or MYOB.
- The problemOwners chasing photosBuyers ring every week wanting to see their home. The team snaps a photo and texts it from a personal phone.How we fix itBuild photos and stage updates posted from the workshop floor to an owner portal.
- The problemMaterials ordered from memoryEvery build is a bit different, so cladding, windows and fixtures get missed or doubled up.How we fix itA materials and cut list generated from each configuration, ready to order from your suppliers.
- The problemDelivery sorted by phoneTransport, pilot vehicles, site access and crane bookings are juggled across calls and sticky notes.How we fix itDelivery scheduling with site access checklists, transport bookings and owner reminders on the map.
- The problemExpo leads in a notebookOpen days and expos bring in dozens of names that end up on paper forms and never get followed up.How we fix itLeads captured on a tablet at the stand, saved designs attached and follow-ups sent automatically.
- The problemHandover info lostManuals, warranties, compliance docs and appliance guides get emailed once and lost forever.How we fix itA digital handover pack in the owner portal with everything for that exact home.
- The problemWarranty claims by emailA leaking window turns into a long email thread with no photos and no record of what was fixed.How we fix itWarranty requests with photos logged against the build, assigned to the team and tracked to done.

03The systems
The big ones
Your whole tiny home business, on one system.
These are the systems tiny home builders ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.
Build configurator
Buyers design their home. The price and weight keep up.
Your models, layouts and options on your website with live pricing as buyers click through. Every option carries a weight and rules, so nobody ends up with a bath that won't fit or a build that's over the trailer's ATM.
- Models, lengths and layouts
- Finishes, cladding and colours
- Off-grid solar, battery and tank packages
- Live pricing as options change
- Weight tracked against the trailer ATM
- Rules for options that clash
- Plan or 3D preview
- Save, share and come back later
- Turn a design into a quote in one click
- Your margins built into every price
Sales & payments
From saved design to paid deposit without the paperwork.
Every enquiry, expo lead and saved design lands in one pipeline. When a buyer is ready, they sign online and pay the deposit to lock in a build slot. Stage payments follow on their own as the build moves.
- Leads from the website, expos and socials
- Saved designs attached to every lead
- Automatic follow-up emails and SMS
- Contracts signed online
- Deposits paid by card or bank
- Stage invoices triggered by progress
- Reconciled into Xero or MYOB
- Finance and pre-approval notes
Production & build tracking
Every build on the floor, on one board.
A production calendar shows which home is in which bay and when it'll roll out. Each build has its own stage checklist, materials list and variations, so the crew works from the same page as the office.
- Build slots and bays on a calendar
- Stage checklists from trailer to fit-off
- Materials and cut lists per build
- Supplier orders and deliveries
- Variations priced and approved online
- Photos uploaded from the workshop
- Crew tasks and sign-offs
- Final weigh-in recorded
Owner portal
Owners watch their home come together.
Buyers log in to see photos, stage updates, payments and documents for their home. They ask questions and approve variations in the same place, so the phone stops ringing every Monday.
- Progress photos by stage
- Expected finish and delivery dates
- Payments made and coming up
- Variations to review and approve
- Messages with the build team
- Plans and selections on file
- Delivery prep checklist for their site
Delivery & handover
Off the floor, onto the block, keys handed over.
Delivery days are planned with transport, pilot vehicles, crane and site access in one place. When it lands, the owner gets a digital handover pack and warranty claims come back to the same system.
- Delivery calendar and map
- Transport and pilot vehicle bookings
- Crane hire when it's needed
- Site access checklists for owners
- Delivery reminders by SMS
- Digital handover packs
- Warranty claims with photos
- Full history for every home

07How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your tiny home building business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time in the workshop, on the sales calls and in the office, then work out what's actually slowing your builds down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your models, options, weights, build stages, payments, deliveries, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win before the next expo.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
08Questions
FAQ
Things tiny home builders ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can the configurator show off-grid options?
Yes. Solar, batteries, water tanks, composting toilets and gas packages can all be options with their own pricing, weights and rules.
Can it keep track of weight on the trailer?
Yes. Every option carries a weight and the configurator adds it up against the trailer's ATM as the buyer goes, with warnings before they go over. You set the numbers and rules.
Do you handle homes on foundations as well as trailers?
Yes. Models can be on wheels or on a slab or footings, with different options, pricing and delivery steps for each.
Can buyers save a design and come back to it?
Yes. They can save, share it with a partner and pick up where they left off. You see the saved design attached to the lead.
Do we need to switch from Xero or Buildxact?
No. If a tool is doing its job we build around it. If something is holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.
How much does a tiny home system cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
How long does it take?
Smaller jobs like a configurator or owner portal can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most tiny home builders we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
