Pricing by trade

Each trade's pricing page includes a price table sorted by starting price, the top Fit Score pick in each price tier, monthly cost at 3, 10 and 25 techs, the costs to ask about beyond the subscription, and the tiers our data records for each tool.

Quick pricing benchmarks

Free tier
15 tools

Contractor+, OpenSolar, busybusy, Connecteam and 11 more. Free plans differ: some cap users, jobs, projects or features; each tool page's pricing note gives what our data records about its free plan.

Lowest paid starting price
Workyard

From $6 per user a month. 25 of the 61 tools with a published paid starting price start under $50/month; the median starting price is $63.75/month blended across pricing models (per-user median $42 per user a month, flat-fee median $92 a month). Some plans are priced per user and others per company, so compare at your team size.

Quote-only (no published price)
49 tools

Including ServiceTitan, BuildOps and Procore. They publish no price, so the cost is whatever the vendor quotes you; ask for setup or implementation fees in the same written quote. A further 2 (Trash Flow and Pylon) publish prices that are not a monthly plan, such as module prices or per-project fees.

What you'll find on each trade's pricing page

Every trade's pricing page (HVAC, plumbing, electrical and the rest) has the same sections:

  • Quick price comparison table: every tool listed for the trade, sorted by starting price (lowest first, quote-only last), with the vendor's pricing note, free trial length and the date the price was checked.
  • Top pick by tier: the tool with the highest Fit Score for that trade in each price bracket, compared per user per month with flat company plans split across a 5-person team (entry under $100, mid $100-$249, top tier $250+ or quote-only). Ties are named. Tools with a free tier, and tools with no monthly plan, are not placed in a tier.
  • Pricing scenarios by team size: monthly cost at 3, 10 and 25 techs for up to 10 tools with a published monthly price. Each figure is the cheapest plan that allows that many users, worked out from the plan prices and user rules on the vendor's pricing page (billed annually where offered, every tech counted as a full user). Where those facts are not recorded, or the page leaves a needed figure unclear, the cell says why instead of giving a figure.
  • Costs beyond the subscription: card processing fees, setup or implementation fees and paid add-ons, with the tools on that page whose pricing notes mention each.
  • Per-tool pricing breakdown: the tiers our data records for each tool, with the published price where there is one; quote-only tools are marked as custom quote.
  • FAQs: what the trade's software costs, the lowest published prices, per-user against flat pricing, how prices are checked, costs beyond the subscription, scaling with team size, and negotiating.

How we verify pricing

Each tool's price carries the date it was last checked against the vendor's own website (currently August 21, 2026 to October 22, 2026). When a vendor publishes no price, the tool is marked quote-only. See the methodology page for how and how often prices are re-checked.
