The Problem

Trade show construction daily life
is organised chaos.

  • 📱
    WhatsApp groups instead of a system — Tasks, plans, and photos get buried in endless chats. Nobody knows the current status.
  • 🔧
    Tools go missing — Rotary hammer at show A, cable drums somewhere in the warehouse. Hours wasted searching.
  • 📋
    Excel and paper — Measurements, checklists, timesheets on paper. Double work, no overview, error-prone.
  • ⏰
    Trade show deadlines are sacred — One forgotten detail, one lost document, and the setup spirals out of control.
The Solution

Everything in one app.

✓
All projects, booths, teams — centrally organised
✓
Scan and track tools via QR code
✓
Check off daily plans and checklists digitally
✓
Document and share setup photos directly
✓
Technician profiles with trades and vehicle
✓
All plans and files sorted by booth

Voices from the Industry

What trade show builders say.

★★★★★

Finally no more WhatsApp chaos. Everyone knows what they need to do, I see the booth status in real time. The tool tracking alone has already saved us several hours of searching.

Site Manager · Trade Show Construction GmbH Munich
★★★★★

As a technician, I finally see everything I need: my booth, my setup plan, my tasks. Nothing more. Nothing less. The app is simply useful on the job site.

★★★★★

The photo documentation saved us during a damage claim. Everything was time-stamped and assigned to the correct booth. That was never possible with the old methods.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

No. FairFlow is built so that a carpenter understands it in 5 minutes. No manual, no training. Just log in and get started. Our support is always available for questions.
Each tool gets a QR code (you print it out and stick it on). A camera scan in the app immediately shows where the tool is and you can change the location — warehouse, vehicle, booth, or person. The movement history is automatically saved.
FairFlow is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that runs in the browser. A good internet connection (4G/LTE) is usually available at modern trade shows. For poor connections we are working on an offline feature — coming in the next update.
Yes. In the team plan, multiple users can have the site manager role and each manage their own projects. Each site manager sees only their own projects, the admin sees everything.
FairFlow is operated in Germany and is fully GDPR-compliant. Your project data, photos, and employee information are stored encrypted. No data is shared with third parties.
Yes. FairFlow runs as a Progressive Web App in any modern browser — on the technician's smartphone as well as on the site manager's desktop in the office. All data is synchronised in real time.
The job board connects trade show construction companies with freelance technicians and skilled workers. Site managers can post open positions for individual shows — with daily rate, trade, and date. Technicians apply directly via their FairFlow profile. No long CV, no headhunter.
After every shared project assignment, the people involved are automatically saved as contacts. This way every technician and site manager builds a reliable network over time — profile with trades, rating, and contact option included.
Yes. The free plan allows up to 2 projects without a time limit — perfect for a real test at the next show. The Pro plan starts with 14 days free, then cancellable monthly. No annual contract, no minimum term.
Your data belongs to you. After cancellation you have 30 days to export everything. Then all data is completely and irreversibly deleted. We do not sell data and share nothing with third parties.
FairFlow automatically analyses the organiser's website — Messe Berlin, Köln Messe, Messe München and many more. The AI detects all available hall maps with designation and m² details and imports them directly into the project. No manual searching, no download. For the next project at the same venue, the maps are instantly available.
Unlimited — every project can have as many booths as needed, in different halls or the same one. Each booth gets its own booth folder with 3D visualisation, hall map, plans (floor, walls, banner), daily goals, tasks, and tool assignment. This keeps you fully on top of even complex show projects with multiple exhibitors.
Daily goals are checklists per booth and per day — for example "lay floor" or "erect walls" on the Sunday before the show. They are tied to a specific setup day and can be organised as team assignments. Tasks, on the other hand, are location-independent to-dos with priority, deadline, and photo attachment — ideal for individual jobs not tied to a specific day. Both are linked: completed daily goals appear as tasks in the tasks tab.
Directly via email invitation from within the project. The invited member receives a link, creates a profile in under 2 minutes — with trades, vehicle data, and daily rate — and is immediately visible in the project. As a site manager you see at a glance which trade, which vehicle, and what experience each technician brings.
Yes. Setup photos are taken directly in the app, time-stamped, and assigned to the correct booth — ready as a PDF report to send to the client. Receipts and expenses can also be exported as an overview. This saves time and also protects you during damage claims or billing.
Yes, directly in the project under the "Travel" tab. You create carpools with route, departure time, licence plate, and available seats — all passengers see this in their app. Hotels are assigned to the project, technicians see the address, check-in time, and their room assignment. No more separate coordination via chat or email.
