Home is the first page you see at https://mybuildx.com after you sign in. It's titled **Today Cockpit** and every role has it. The listing, lead and job cards matter most for General Contractor accounts.

## What you can do

- See four live tiles: **Open jobs**, **Active leads**, **Messages**, and **Won this period**. Each tile opens its page.
- Work through **Get listed on CNM**: **Add your business info**, **Upload project photos**, **Preview your profile**, **Publish your listing**.
- Copy your Contractor ID, profile slug, and contractor.id short link from the listing card, and see your QR code once your listing is published.
- Check **My to-dos** (open tasks on your jobs) and the **Live feed** of photos, comments and task updates from your jobs.
- Read **What's new**.
- Switch the **Analytics overview** chart between **Today**, **Last 7 days**, **Last 30 days**, and **This year**.
- Dismiss the **Getting started** tips one by one, or press **Hide all tips**.

## Jump anywhere with the command palette

1. Press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows), or click **Search…** in the header.
2. Type to filter: **Jump to a job**, **Jump to a customer**, **Jump to an invoice**, **New estimate**, **Go to leads**, **Go to inbox**, **Go to schedule**.
3. Use the arrow keys and Enter, or click a result.

The palette opens pages. It doesn't search inside your records.

## Ask the BuildX assistant

**Ask BuildX** in the header (⌘J or Ctrl+J) opens a chat panel that works in your account for you. You can type requests like "Show my new leads", "Which invoices are still unpaid?", or "Create a job for a roof replacement at 12 Oak St". It can look up and change leads, jobs, estimates, invoices, inbox conversations, job photos, job labels, saved text, photo tags and showcases. You can attach JPG, PNG or WebP photos to a message.

Before it changes or sends anything that matters, the assistant shows an approval card with the details, and you approve or decline. Use the expand button to open it full screen at https://mybuildx.com/assistant.

## Get lead alerts on your phone

MyBuildX can be installed to your phone's home screen and send alerts for new leads, customer messages, and payments.

1. On Home, find the **Get new leads on your phone** card (or **Install app** in the sidebar).
2. On a phone, press **Install app**. On a computer, press **Get it on your phone** for instructions. On an iPhone: tap **Share**, then **Add to Home Screen**, then **Add**.
3. Open BuildX from your home screen and sign in.
4. Go to **Notifications** (https://mybuildx.com/notifications) and press **Turn on alerts**.

The Notifications page also lists your in-app notifications. Press **Mark read** to clear one.

## Good to know

- **Won this period** counts leads marked Won or Qualified in the selected period.
- The chart numbers come from your leads, inbox threads, jobs and reviews. They aren't page-view counts. See [Analytics](https://docs.buildx.pro/docs/dashboard/analytics.md).
- On a phone, the sidebar becomes a dock at the bottom of the screen with a **More** button.
