Day BoardTHE FLAT-PRICE JOB BOARD

For crews of one to five

Hiring your first helper? Your software bill doesn't have to triple.

DayBoard is the job board for small home-service crews: the week on one screen, every person in their own lane, job sheets your crew can read in the sun. One flat price — $36 a month for up to 5 people. No tiers. No per-person charges. No job cap.

Your week, the way DayBoard shows it: one column per day, one color per person.

The honest calculator

What does your crew size really cost on Jobber or Housecall Pro?

Their pricing pages lead with the cheapest plan. But the cheapest plan is rarely the one a working crew can use: Jobber Core holds one user only and has no client reminders and no QuickBooks connection; Housecall Pro Basic has no sync either. So this calculator prices the cheapest plan that includes both client reminders and QuickBooks sync, for your crew size — then puts our flat price next to it. Prices checked November 2026.

How the math works: Jobber Connect is $99/mo on yearly billing ($139 monthly) for the first user, then $29/mo per added user. Housecall Pro sync starts at Essentials, $149/mo yearly ($189 monthly). Neither number appears on their homepages' big print. Full breakdown in the pricing guide.

Solo and don't need reminders or QuickBooks at all? Then Jobber Core at $29/mo on yearly billing beats us, and we'll tell you so. The calculator prices the plans a growing crew actually ends up on.

One flat price: $36 a month

For your whole crew — up to 5 people. No tiers, no per-person charges, no job cap. Or $349 a year and be done with it.

Get DayBoard — $36/mo

Built for the day you hire help

The board is the product

Week view and day view, one lane per person, drag a job to move it. Recurring jobs repeat on your crew's local time — a 9:00 job stays 9:00 when daylight saving starts or ends.

Job sheets that work in the field

Client, address, checklist, photos, notes, done button. Big type, high contrast, made to be read on a phone in bright light with gloves half off.

Quotes and invoices, kept thin

A quote takes a minute and goes out as a link your client can approve. One tap turns it into a job; one more tap turns the finished job into an invoice with a card pay link on your own Stripe account.

Reminders send themselves

Appointment reminders the day before, an invoice note on the due date, a follow-up a week later, and a gentle nudge on quotes that go quiet. Included in the $36 — not an add-on.

Your client list comes with you

Export your clients from Jobber or Housecall Pro, import the file here, and your names, emails, phones and addresses are on the board. What moves and what doesn't, said straight.

QuickBooks by export, honestly

No live sync — a clean CSV with QuickBooks' own import columns, ready when you do your books. Who actually needs sync, and who is paying for a habit.

What it never does

The short list of what DayBoard refuses to charge you for

Every feature the big platforms hold back for a higher tier is either in the $36 or honestly not in the product. No AI receptionist add-on. No marketing suite add-on. No "that'll be $29 per extra user." The pricing page prints the whole in-and-out list.

No tiers

There is one DayBoard. The $36 one is the whole product.

No per-person math

Person two, three, four and five cost the same as person one: nothing extra.

No job cap

Put 30 jobs on the board this month or 300. Same price.

Questions, answered straight

How much does DayBoard cost?

One flat price: $36 a month, or $349 a year, for a crew of up to 5 people. There are no tiers, no per-person charges, no add-ons, and no limit on how many jobs you put on the board.

Why is there a 5-person cap?

Because the cap is what makes the flat price honest. Jobber and Housecall Pro charge more as your crew grows; DayBoard is built for the crews they price out — one to five people — and the price never moves inside that range.

Does DayBoard sync with QuickBooks?

No — and we say so plainly. DayBoard exports your invoices and payments as a CSV file with the exact columns QuickBooks asks for on import. You run it when you do your books. If you truly need a live two-way sync, you need Jobber Connect or higher, or Housecall Pro Essentials — the honest guide on this site walks through who actually needs sync and who does not.

Can my clients pay by card?

Yes. Connect your own Stripe account (a short sign-up inside DayBoard) and invoices carry a pay link: your client pays by card, the money settles to your bank through your Stripe account. DayBoard never sees card numbers and never holds your money.

What does DayBoard not do?

No QuickBooks sync, no texting clients from inside the app, no job costing, no online booking page, no GPS tracking, no time clock, no automations, no marketing tools, no financing, and one location only. The full list is printed on the pricing page. What it does — the board, job sheets, quotes, invoices, reminders — it does without charging you again for each piece.

I am just me, no crew yet. Is DayBoard worth it?

Honestly: if you are a true solo and you do not need client reminders or any QuickBooks connection, Jobber Core on annual billing at $29 a month is cheaper than us. The moment you add one helper, Jobber Core cannot add them at all and the cheapest Jobber that fits costs $128 a month. That second-person moment is exactly what DayBoard is priced for.
