Why contractors choose AnidaPro over ServiceM8
Flat, predictable pricing
One monthly price with seats included — $79 solo, $199 for a 3-person team, $399 for 10. No per-user surprises and no per-job or per-transaction platform fees eating your margin.
Truly all-in-one
CRM, estimates, invoicing, scheduling, dispatch, SMS, reviews, and a branded client portal live in one platform — so you can retire the patchwork of add-ons and disconnected tools.
A real AI ops suite, included
AI estimates, an Action Inbox, a Daily Briefing, lead scoring, and a voice assistant come standard — not as a pricey upsell. It reads like an extra office assistant that never clocks out.
Modern app your crew will use
A fast iPhone and Android app puts the schedule, estimates, invoices, jobs, and AI assistant in every tech’s pocket, synced with the office in real time — included on every plan.
What you’ll actually pay
AnidaPro is a flat monthly price with seats included and no per-job fees. ServiceM8’s plans are structured around job volume, with extras such as SMS charged as credits, so a busy month can cost more. Compare your typical job volume against AnidaPro’s flat plans on the pricing page.

AnidaPro charges one flat monthly price per plan ($79, $199, or $399) with seats included and no per-job fees. ServiceM8’s plans are based on job volume, and add-ons like SMS use credits, so cost can rise in busy months.
