Early access · Built for the trades
Stop renting your tools.
Quote in 30 seconds. Get paid the same day. Field service software you buy once and own forever — a tool, not a subscription.
Sound familiar?
You built the business. You're renting the tools.
- Paying $99/month — forever — for software you'll never own
- The app spins forever every time you're in a basement or dead zone
- Your bill jumped the month you hired your first helper
- Another "pricing update" email — rates went up, features didn't
- Your customer data is locked in a system you can't export from
- You built this business. You're renting the tools to run it.

What is the $0.25 Platform Maintenance Fee?
Our Platform Maintenance Fee — the same as the Lights-On Fee in our Terms — is a flat $0.25 each time you collect payment through GravyWorks' integrated processing. Stripe's card fees go to Stripe; we don't take a cut of your revenue beyond that flat fee.
