Pick The Plan That Works For You
No long-term contracts. No hidden fees. No surprises. Start with what fits your business today and upgrade whenever you're ready — it takes one click.
I switched from Jobber to Ascend three months ago and honestly I should've done it sooner. The invoicing alone saves me two hours every Friday. I send everything in one batch, it follows up automatically, and the money just shows up in my account. My cash flow has never been better and I'm barely thinking about it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Ascend before you commit. No fluff, no runaround — just straight answers.
Not at all. Ascend was built for contractors, not software engineers. If you can send a text message, you can run Ascend. The dashboard is simple, visual, and walks you through every step. Most contractors are fully set up and running within their first hour — no IT degree required.
Most contractors are up and running within minutes of signing up. Your account activates instantly. On the Contractor Pro plan, our team handles the entire setup for you — your website, automations, and CRM — so you don't have to lift a finger.
Never. Ascend is month-to-month with zero long-term contracts. You can cancel anytime from your dashboard with no fees, no phone calls, and no hassle. We keep you because our product works — not because you're locked in.
After your 14-day trial your plan activates automatically and your card on file is charged at your selected plan rate. You'll receive a reminder email before your trial ends so there are no surprises. Cancel before day 14 and you won't be charged a cent.
Because we built Ascend specifically for small and growing home service businesses — not enterprise corporations. We cut the bloat and kept what actually moves the needle for contractors: leads, follow-up, reviews, and marketing. You get the power of a $300/mo platform for a fraction of the cost.
Yes — change your plan at any time from inside your dashboard. Upgrades take effect immediately and billing is prorated so you only pay the difference. Start on Starter, grow into Growth, and scale to Pro when you're ready. No pressure, no penalties.
None. What you see on the pricing page is what you pay. No setup fees, no onboarding fees, no surprise charges. The only additional costs would be usage-based items like SMS messaging credits if you exceed your plan's included amount — and we'll always notify you before that happens.
Jobber and Housecall Pro are great job management tools — but they don't help you get more customers. Ascend is a full business operating system. We give you a lead-generating website, automated follow-up, a 5-star review funnel, and marketing campaigns — all in one place. It's not just software to manage jobs. It's software to grow your business.
Yes. Ascend works for any home service business — roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, pest control, painting, pressure washing, moving companies, and more. If you're a contractor or home service business that needs leads, reviews, and automation, Ascend was built for you.
The moment you miss a call, Ascend automatically sends a text message to that caller within seconds — in your own words, from your own number. Something like "Hey, sorry I missed you! I'm on a job right now. What can I help you with?" The lead stays warm, the conversation stays alive, and you close the job when you're free.
After every completed job, Ascend automatically texts your customer asking how their experience was. Happy customers get sent directly to Google to leave a 5-star review. Unhappy customers get routed to a private feedback form so you can handle it offline — before it becomes a public 1-star review. More 5-stars, fewer headaches.
Every plan includes access to our support team, onboarding guides, and training resources. We're here to make sure you succeed — not just sell you software and disappear. Contractor Pro members receive priority support and a dedicated done-for-you setup experience so everything is built and working before you even log in.
Absolutely. Ascend is built on enterprise-grade infrastructure with 256-bit SSL encryption, secure data storage, and regular backups. Your customer data, contact lists, and business information are protected and never sold to third parties. Your business is yours — we just help you run it better.
Yes. Ascend integrates with the tools you already use — Stripe for payments, Google Business Profile, Google Ads, Meta, Mailgun, Twilio, and more. Most contractors find they can replace 3-4 separate tools with Ascend alone, saving both time and money every month.
