Cutsheet vs. Housecall Pro for Lawn Care Businesses

Per Housecall Pro's own help documentation (current as of this writing — verify on their site, as help-doc terminology can change), Housecall Pro organizes inbound work through a Pipeline board of "Leads," moving a lead through stages like New Lead, First Contact, Second Contact, Third Contact, and Won/Lost — a single Lead object tracked through a visual pipeline. ServiceTitan's own help documentation describes a similar single-object approach, surfacing leads through a Follow Up menu rather than a separate object per source.

Cutsheet's free tier is $0/month for up to 25 jobs a month and 25 active customers, with online payments at a 3% transaction fee. The Pro tier ($59/month, or $49/month billed annually) cuts that transaction fee to 1% on every job — the main reason growing operators upgrade — and adds unlimited jobs, customers, and crew seats, recurring schedules, automated payment reminders, advanced reporting, a customer portal, Cutsheet Opportunities access, and removes the "Powered by Cutsheet" branding on your contractor website. A custom domain is a one-time $149 add-on.

We aren't going to restate Housecall Pro's current subscription price here — check their pricing page directly, since we can't verify a number we haven't looked up live and don't want to publish a stale figure.

Where Cutsheet differs today is pricing transparency on platform-sourced leads specifically: Opportunities carry a disclosed 12% fee, separate from the standard 1-3% transaction fee depending on plan, so the cost of a marketplace-matched job is visible up front rather than bundled into a flat subscription tier.
