Your AI Receptionist
When it launches: answers every call, 24/7, books jobs while you’re on the roof, and catches the after-hours leads your competitors miss.
Hiring this human: $35K to $50K/yr
Or $99 to $399/mo for an answering service.
For less than $2 per working hour, you’re building your way from 70-hour weeks back to dinner at home. One plan, every feature. Free for 14 days, no card needed.
Built by a contractor. One plan, every feature. Free for 14 days, no card needed.
Every contractor who scales hits the same wall. You can’t grow past yourself until you hire help. A receptionist. A bookkeeper. A marketer. A dispatcher. A strategist. Add up the cards below and that’s $11,000 to $19,000+ a month, before taxes, benefits and a strategist’s hourly rate. ZippyPro takes on much of that work for $299 a month, or $2,990 a year. Each card below says what works today and what is still coming.

Hiring a real consultant: $200 to $500/hr
And they don’t pick up at 9pm on a Sunday.

The closest all-in-one alternative, priced the way you would buy it: Jobber Grow (5 users) is $229/mo at Jobber’s regular annual-billing price. Adding Jobber’s Marketing Suite ($99) and AI Receptionist ($29) brings it to $357/mo (Jobber pricing, checked October 20, 2026; on that date Jobber also listed a first-year Grow price of $161/mo for new customers through October 30, 2026). ZippyPro is $299/mo, or $2,990 a year, with five office users included. ZippyPro’s AI receptionist and email campaigns are not live yet; they are included in that price when they launch.
For illustration, a stack of 7 single-purpose tools many shops stitch together is below.
Prices checked October 20, 2026 on each vendor’s pricing page, annual billing where offered. Birdeye and ActiveCampaign don’t show these prices on their own pages; those two are from third-party price listings (contractortoolstack.com for Birdeye, July 2026; automationatlas.io for ActiveCampaign, checked October 20, 2026). Illustrative only; your stack will differ. Each row says whether ZippyPro replaces it today or when the matching feature ships.

These are the goals we’re building toward, not measured results. We’ll publish real numbers once beta contractors have used ZippyPro long enough to show them.
ZippyPro doesn’t just save you money. It saves you yourself. For less than $2 an hour, you’re working toward buying back the only thing you can’t earn more of.
Leads, estimates, schedule and invoices live in one place instead of a stack of apps. Zapi answers your questions while you eat dinner. You stop being every role at once. You go back to being the boss.
Your crew running clean without you on every call. Zapi pulls up what needs you so you don’t go digging. You make every game. Every dinner. Every recital.
Crews dispatched. Invoices out. The goal: approve the big stuff from a beach in Cozumel. The business is finally an asset that funds the life, instead of a job that consumes it.
Twenty years in the trades taught me the painful truth: most contractors don’t own a business. They own a really expensive job that owns them back. The way out isn’t working harder. It’s hiring help. But hiring out five of those roles runs $11K to $19K a month before you’ve sold a single ticket.
ZippyPro is the team I wish I’d had at 30. The receptionist, the marketer, the dispatcher, the bookkeeper, the strategist. Some are working today and the rest are on the way, all for the price of a phone bill. You’re not paying for software. You’re paying to expand without hiring. To invest in your family without working more. To finally turn the business into something your kids could inherit, instead of something that ate your weekends for twenty years.
