For a one-person shop
An example with assumed numbers. Change them to match your shop. A solo shop takes $15,000 a month: 30 card payments of $400 and 5 bank (ACH) payments of $600.

| Jobber Core, billed monthly | $29 | $357 | $30 | none | $416 |
| Jobber Connect, billed monthly | $139 | $357 | $30 | none | $526 |
| Doing Work | $75 fee | $357 | $24 | your choice | $456 plus any agent |

Your agent
Your agent runs Doing Work the way it runs your email and calendar. If you already use one, there is nothing new to buy. If you pick one for this, its pricing page is linked on Chat vs agent.
Runs on its own
Doing Work runs these on its own schedule, whether or not an agent is working. Your agent does the thinking work when you want it: quotes, scheduling, answers. It is part of your setup the way your email and calendar are, and if you already use one, there is nothing new to buy.
- Unpaid invoice reminder email. On by default, starting 1 day after the invoice goes out.
- Quote follow-up email. On by default, 3 days after the quote goes out. The shop can change it from 0 (off) to 30 days.
- Review request email after a paid job. On by default once the shop adds its review link.
- Autopay on a customer's saved card. The shop turns it on for each customer.
- Maintenance plan renewals and service due reminder emails, for shops that use plans.
- Appointment reminders, once the shop turns them on. They go by email, and by text once the shop's texting is set up.
- Payment receipts and the monthly fee statement.
No contract
- No plans, no monthly fee and nothing paid up front.
