The one thing no one else does
Every platform above handles scheduling and invoicing. This is what separates WerkOps.
Built for HVAC, not generic trades
Manual J load calculation, SEER-rated equipment specs, permit and rebate fields on proposals. No other platform at this price point gives you HVAC-native tools out of the box.
Flat rate that doesn't punish growth
Every competitor charges more when you hire. Add a tech on FieldEdge — $125/mo. On WerkOps — $0. Your bill never changes because your crew grew.
Running today, not next quarter
Sign up, add your business details, send your first estimate — all before lunch. No implementation team, no onboarding timeline, no waiting to actually use what you paid for.
Estimates that close themselves
Automated follow-ups go to every open estimate on day 3, 7, and 14. No other platform at this price does this out of the box. Jobber and Housecall Pro charge extra for it.
AI lead capture included
The AI Lead Assistant handles inbound website inquiries 24/7 and routes them into your leads dashboard. Jobber offers an AI Receptionist as a $99/mo add-on — it answers calls, but lacks HVAC-specific routing, lead capture to a dashboard, or integration with your estimates. On WerkOps it's built in from Pro up.
No contract. No exit penalty. Ever.
Cancel any time, no fee, no questions. We earn your business every month — not every three years. If WerkOps stops working for you, you leave. It's that simple.
14 days free. No card required.
Full Business plan access from day one. See exactly what you'd be paying for before you spend a dollar.
