You talk. Sabeam does the paperwork.
Speak it on site, forward an email, or snap a photo. Sabeam turns it into the variation, the diary entry, or the compliance record, drafted and waiting for you to approve. Every module works on its own, so start with one and add more when you need them.
Speak it → done
Say what happened on site, once. Sabeam turns it into the right jobs, a variation, a message to the sub, a diary note, drafted for your nod.

The admin is eating your nights
Residential builders lose nights and weekends to paperwork. Variations, progress claims, sub compliance, TPAR. And when the payments do land, they land late. Sabeam takes the admin off your desk.

Capture it once. Sabeam drafts it, you approve it. And when secure payments launch, you will be able to get paid through funded milestone escrow too.
Secure payments
Funded milestone escrow is the premium module we are building. The homeowner sets aside the money for each stage up front, and it is released to you the moment that stage is approved. It is not live yet.
How secure payments will work
Three steps, and no new software to learn.
Set up your project
Builder creates the project, defines milestones and payment amounts, then invites the homeowner. Takes five minutes.
Funds are secured
The homeowner sets aside the money for the job up front. Both of you can see it. Neither can touch it until the work is signed off.
Complete and get paid
You finish a milestone, the homeowner reviews and approves, and the money for that stage is released straight to your bank account, fast.
Get paid when
the work is done
Chasing progress payments is the worst part of the job. When secure payments launch, the money for each stage will be set aside before you start it. Finish the stage, get it approved, and you are paid.
Fast payouts
When a milestone is approved, the money will land in your account fast through Australia's New Payments Platform.
Clear milestones
Define exactly what work each payment covers, so a payment is never a surprise to either side.
Xero integration
Payments will reconcile straight into Xero, so your bookkeeper is not stuck keying it in by hand.
Money set aside first
The funds for each stage are committed before work starts, so you are not left wondering whether the client can pay.
Segregated trust structure
Your money will sit in a segregated Australian trust, not with the builder and not with Sabeam.
Full visibility
See your balance, the milestone progress, and every transaction, anytime and from any device.
You approve every release
No money moves without your sign-off. Review milestone completion evidence, then approve or raise a dispute.
Dispute protection
Not happy with the work? Raise a dispute with one click and funds are frozen until it's resolved.
Your money, safe
until the work is done
Building a home is the biggest spend most Australians ever make. When secure payments launch, your money will sit safely in a trust and only move once you are happy with the work.
Not your grandfather's escrow
Traditional escrow is slow, expensive, and hard to see into. Here is how Sabeam is being built to compare when secure payments launch.
Built for trust. Built for regulation.
Sabeam's escrow architecture is designed to operate within Australia's financial services and construction trust account frameworks.
Segregated trust structure
Funds are held in a segregated Australian trust structure, not by Sabeam. The architecture is designed to operate through a licensed Australian payments partner.
AML/CTF Aligned
Sabeam’s AML/CTF program is built to AUSTRAC Tranche 2 standards (effective 1 July 2026). KYC via Australian DVS-integrated identity verification.
Bank-Grade Security
256-bit encryption, multi-factor authentication, and fraud detection on every transaction. Your data is as secure as your bank's.
Complete Audit Trail
Every deposit, approval, and release is recorded with timestamps, amounts, and parties. Full transparency, always.
Sabeam's escrow structure is designed to align with Queensland BIF Act Project Trust Account requirements.
Embed escrow into your platform
Add milestone-based escrow to your construction software with our REST APIs. White-label UI, real-time webhooks, and a revenue share on every transaction.
