Packages
GROUNDWRK by Clearstead

Three packages. Pick where you are.

Solo for the operator running it all themselves. Crew for a growing team. Operations for an established business that needs real controls. The tiers are cumulative, so each one includes everything in the package below it. We talk to you first so the package fits the business, which is why pricing is by conversation, not a checkout button.

Solo

Card payments settle to your own connected account, and any text messaging goes out through your own number under your own registration. Those pass-through costs are yours, not a markup from us. The door-to-door prospecting engine scores opportunity by likelihood, never certainty.

Package comparison

What is in each package.

Tiers are cumulative: every package includes everything in the one below it. A gold check means the feature is in that tier. An X means it arrives at a higher one.

Versus the field

What GROUNDWRK includes that others gate.

Popular field-service platforms are good tools. The honest difference is where things live: GROUNDWRK bundles the money and growth pieces that other platforms often sell as add-ons or reserve for their higher tiers. We lead with our own strengths.

Competitor features compared as of 2026. Their plans and packaging change often, so verify current terms with each provider before deciding. We have kept these statements general on purpose: the point is what GROUNDWRK bundles, not a precise audit of anyone else. The prospecting engine reports likelihoods, not guarantees, and never claims a specific home needs your service.

FAQ

Straight answers before you ask.

The questions operators actually ask on the first call. If yours is not here, the get-started form is the fastest way to reach the person who built this.

GROUNDWRK is a web-based CRM and invoicing platform built for home-services businesses. It carries a job from quote to invoice to receipt in one branded document, with e-signature, online card payments, branded email, and automatic review requests. Higher tiers add the field and back-office tools a crew needs: roles, GPS shifts, payroll, recurring billing, and a door-to-door prospecting engine. It is the tool Clearstead runs its own window-cleaning and pressure-washing business on.

Home-services business owners: window cleaning, pressure washing, lawn and landscaping, roofing, gutters, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and the rest of the trades that quote a job, do the work, and get paid. It fits a solo operator who wants one clean system, and it scales to a crew that needs roles, time tracking, and payroll.

Those are solid tools. The honest differences: GROUNDWRK bundles payments and payroll in one place rather than gating payroll behind an add-on, it is built to undercut on entry pricing, and it includes a door-to-door prospecting engine that most field-service platforms do not have at all. It was also built by an operator who runs a home-services business, not by a software company working from a roadmap. See the comparison above for the specifics, and verify current terms with each provider since their plans change.

Yes. Online card payments are in every package, and card funds settle to your own connected account, not ours. Payroll with tiered commission is part of the Crew tier and up, in the same tool you already run the business on, not a separate bolt-on. Card processing and any text messaging carry pass-through costs from the payment and messaging providers. Those are yours at cost, not a markup from us.

Packages are billed monthly. We would rather earn the next month than lock you in, so the goal is a tool you keep because it works. We will walk you through the exact terms on the get-started call so there are no surprises.

Self-serve signup is not open yet. We are onboarding businesses one at a time so the setup actually matches how you run. Fill out the get-started form and the operator who built GROUNDWRK will reach out to walk you through it and get you set up. A walkthrough comes first, pricing once we understand your shape.

It is a tool that scores blocks and homes by the likelihood they are worth a knock, using property signals, so a rep spends time where it is most likely to pay off. It is probabilistic by design: it says a block is probably worth your time, never that a specific house needs your service. Any outreach runs through your own connected tools and your own number, under your own compliance. The Crew tier covers the manual side: territories, door-to-door tagging, and a leaderboard. The Operations tier adds Address Intelligence, the automated layer that heatmaps your territories and spawns probability-ranked leads straight from addresses into your pipeline. It is lead surfacing you act on, not automated outreach.

No. The homeowner opens a public quote link, signs, and pays by card right there. No login, no app to download. They see your brand on the page, the receipt, and the email, not GROUNDWRK.
