FIELD SERVICE SOFTWARE

Own your field service software
instead of renting it.

Every field service tool is just another subscription that costs more each time you hire. This one puts you in control of what you pay and how it works — built for exactly how your crews run.

THE PROBLEM

You're not alone.

Why field service teams are switching to software they own.

“Paying over $1k a month just for software feels absolutely insane… That's more than my insurance costs.”

r/smallbusinessReddit

“Per tech pricing on top of a long contract, it just doesn't make sense at our size.”

r/hvacpeopleReddit

“For smaller shops, it can feel like buying a semi-truck to deliver a pizza.”

r/askHVACReddit

“If you're a shop with 1–5 techs, you're paying $200+/mo for a ton of features you never touch, just to get basic job costing and quotes.”

“You definitely shouldn't be paying $1k/month for software designed for companies 10x your size. That's eating 6-7% of your revenue just on software.”

Per-seat pricing punishes growth

Your bill climbs every time you hire a tech.

Bloated, and not built for you

You pay for features you'll never use.

Locked in

Long contracts make it hard to leave.

THE SHIFT

Renting field service software
vs. owning it.

No per-seat fees. No annual lock-in. Just a field-service system that's yours.

The Old Way

Rent field service SaaS

  • Costs more than your insurance
  • Built to fit everyone, not your shop
  • Overkill features you'll never fully use
  • You never actually own it
The New Way

Own your software

  • You own everything — code, data, and infrastructure
  • One flat price. No per seat.
  • Change it in plain English, anytime
  • Bank-level security, built in.
  • We build it and run it — the maintenance isn't on you

You Own It

Your software, your data, your competitive advantage — no lock-in, no data held hostage.

Fully Managed

We handle hosting, security, updates, and improvements. The maintenance isn't on you.

Always Flexible

Need a change? Describe it in plain English with our AI editor, or hand it to our team.

HOW IT WORKS

A proven head start, then it's yours.

Real engineering behind it. Your choice: hands-on or done-for-you.

01

Start from the right base

Start from a proven template with the core of a field-service business — scheduling, dispatch, job tracking, and invoicing. An expert-built head start, not a blank page.

02

Make it yours

Customize it to your exact workflow — build the features yourself in plain English, or hand it to our engineering team. Either way you get engineering support along the way.

03

Own it for good

The finished software is yours — code, data, and a setup built around your workflow. Customize it anytime, and we can keep it running for you.

BUILT FOR YOUR TRADE

Shaped around how your crews actually work.

HVAC

Installs, service calls, and maintenance agreements, tracked how your shop runs them.

Roofing

Inspections, measurements, estimates, and sign-offs in one workflow, with no per-seat fee per crew.

Restoration & insurance

Field docs, signed contracts, and claims that keep moving — the same setup a public-adjusting firm used to replace DocuSign and CompanyCam.

REAL SAVINGS

A real firm. A real result.

Field service software — your questions, answered.

Per-technician pricing means your bill grows every time you hire. With Founding.dev you own the software outright — you're not renting seats. You just pay one flat monthly fee for hosting, support, and maintenance, no matter how many users or crews you add. So your team can grow without your bill growing with it.
Yes. It's built to fit your operation and priced as a flat fee per company, so smaller shops get software shaped around how they actually work, without the enterprise per-seat pricing that gets expensive as you scale.
Yes. You start from our proven template, and our team customizes it to the exact workflow your crews run — inspections, dispatch, field photos, estimates, signed contracts, and invoicing — whether you're in HVAC, roofing, plumbing, or electrical. Prefer to do it yourself? You can shape the fields, forms, and automations in plain English with our AI editor.
You own it. The code, the data, and the infrastructure are yours, hosted wherever you choose. No lock-in, no data held hostage. When you leave, you take everything with you.
No. The foundation is a production-ready template our engineering team already built, so there's no 6-to-18-month custom build and no engineers for you to hire. Customize it in our AI editor by describing what you need in plain English, or we do the whole thing for you. Either way, you own the result.
Fill out the short form on Get started — who you are, your company size, the tools you want to replace, and a bit about how your shop works. With that, we line up a base template that fits before we talk. On the call, we walk you through that template, look at your current stack, and show what you'd save.
You're not starting from scratch or doing it alone. You begin on proven code, and you can hand us hosting and maintenance for one flat fee. It's there if you want it, and you own the result either way.
Yes. Every build ships with bank-level encryption, audit trails, and SSO from day one. Your data is isolated, stays under your control, and is never used to train AI models.
