What it is

ValLedger is a web platform that brings service-business lead capture, estimates, scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, payments, and job profitability tools together. It is presented for businesses including cleaning, landscaping, contracting, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, painting, pressure washing, pool service, and handyman services. Smart Route Optimization sequences the day’s jobs into a shorter drive and is included on every plan. GPS geo-fencing supports crew clock-ins at job sites, timesheets, and payroll-ready pay runs. Users can capture receipts, link expenses to jobs, and see profit by job. Its AI assistant, Val, can answer questions about business figures, draft quotes, and create records. Actions that email clients or change records in bulk require confirmation before Val carries them out. Clients can pay invoices by card or ACH through Stripe; ValLedger says it charges no transaction fees, while standard Stripe processing fees apply. QuickBooks Online sync is included on every plan, and invoices and payments sync automatically. Plans are month-to-month and start at $59 a month, with a 14-day trial and no free plan.
