No credit card

You are never asked for card details to sign up or to keep going.

No end date

There is no countdown running anywhere in the account.

Every feature on

Nothing is held back for a version you have to buy.

The three monthly counts reset on the first, and they only apply while you are the only person on the account.

Reaching one hundred stops you creating new ones until the reset. Everything you already have stays open, editable, and exportable.

Everything a one-person shop needs, for $0

This is the same app a ten-person company runs. There is no lighter version of it.

Your month on one screen

Drag jobs around the calendar, and every change follows the customer record.

Your day in your pocket

Run the day from your phone. When you hire, your tech downloads the same app straight from a link.

Signed before you leave

Build the estimate on site and have the customer sign it on your screen.

Invoice it and get paid

Turn the finished job into an invoice and take card or bank payment online.

Your customers get their own login

They see appointments, approve estimates, and pay invoices without calling you.

Add a second person and the caps lift

There is no migration and no new account. The bill starts when a second person needs their own login.

The monthly counts lift for as long as a second person is on the account.

Storage is not a cap that lifts, it is an allowance that grows. Every account starts with at least 25 GB, each paid person adds another 25 GB, and 100 GB more is $10 a month if you ever want it.

* Payments taken through Pillar carry Stripe’s standard processing fees on your own Stripe account, plus 1% to Pillar. Cash and checks cost nothing.

Bring your customers and jobs with you

You run the import yourself from the admin screen, up to 100,000 rows at a time. If it comes in wrong, roll it back and run it again.

What moves: customers, jobs, price book, and service history.

Straight answers about the free account

Is it really free, or does it turn into a bill later?

Free forever for one person, with every feature switched on, no card on file and no end date. Two things are only charged if you use them: payments taken through Pillar carry a 1% fee, and texting and calling run on prepaid credit you buy.

Do I need a credit card to sign up?

No. You are not asked for card details to create the account or to keep using it, and a card is only needed if you add a second person or buy extra storage.

Which features are held back on the free account?

None. Recurring work, deposits, your branding, QuickBooks, projects, inventory, subcontractors, multiple locations, and the API are all switched on for one person, exactly as they are for a ten-person company.

How much work can I run for free?

One person can create 100 jobs, 100 estimates, and 100 invoices a month, with unlimited customers and at least 25 GB for photos and files. For a one-truck operation that is a busy month.

What happens if I hit 100 jobs in a month?

Reaching the count stops you creating new ones until it resets on the first. Everything you already have stays open, editable, and exportable, and putting a second person on the account lifts the counts.

What does it cost when I hire someone?

$39 a month for that person, and the same for anyone after them. Your customers and any subcontractors get free logins and never count.

Can I move my customers and jobs from my current software?

Yes. You run the import yourself from ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, FieldEdge, ServiceM8, Workiz, Square, or any spreadsheet, and any import can be rolled back if it comes in wrong.

Is there an app for the phone?

There is. You download the Pillar app to your phone straight from a link, and anyone you hire later does the same.

Can I get my data back out?

Yes, whenever you want and at no charge. Every list exports to a spreadsheet without asking us first.

What happens to my data if I stay free forever?

It stays where it is. A $0 account is a normal account, and there is no point at which records start disappearing.
