Jobber vs Contractor Autopilot
Jobber is $39 Core / $119 Connect / $199 Grow / $599 Plus per month, AI receptionist $99/mo extra — and it is one piece of your business. Contractor Autopilot is $149–$499/mo flat for the whole company, unlimited users: one source of truth, 60+ features from the missed call to the paid invoice. No integrations to build, nothing to keep in sync.
What Jobber does well
Jobber is the most widely used field service platform for a reason. Scheduling, quoting and invoicing are polished, the mobile app is solid, and support is good.
Best for: Small crews who want clean scheduling, quoting and invoicing and nothing more.
Where it leaves you exposed
- →The AI receptionist is a $99/mo add-on on top of a $199/mo plan, and it only answers inbound calls.
- →No website builder, no custom domain, no local SEO pages or Google profile work.
- →Team members are priced per user on most tiers, so growth costs you twice.
One app for the whole business — finally
Jobber runs the job. Getting found and getting called are separate purchases you have to connect and manage.
The call, the lead, the quote, the job, the invoice, the review and the website all live on the same customer record. Your whole crew and your office get their own login — we never charge per seat.
Get found, capture leads, quote & close, run jobs, get paid — the whole business, not one slice of it.
No Zapier, no CSV exports, no paying a consultant to wire your tools together every time something changes.
The time it gives you back
No exporting customers into a marketing tool, no separate system for the website, no chasing which tool has the right phone number. One source, start to finish.

What it costs at 1, 5 and 10 people
Their price grows with your crew. Ours does not — every plan is unlimited users, so the tenth hire costs you nothing in software.
| Crew size | Jobber | + what it doesn't include | Their all-in | Contractor Autopilot |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Just you | $298/mo | $700/mo | $998/mo | $499/mo |
| 5 people | $414/mo | $700/mo | $1,114/mo | $499/mo |
| 10 people | $559/mo | $700/mo | $1,259/mo | $499/mo |
At five people that is $1,114 a month — more than Autopilot Pro — and it still does not answer your phone, build your website, or ask your customers for reviews.
Same money buys the whole business instead of one slice of it: 60+ features across all five stages, unlimited users, one bill.

"What it doesn't include" is the same basket every time: answering service ~$300, website and hosting ~$150, reviews and social ~$100, local SEO help ~$300.

The honest verdict
Jobber runs the work you already won. Contractor Autopilot is built to win it first — answer the call, get you found, quote it fast — and then run it. Priced against Jobber Grow plus the receptionist add-on, we come in at the same money with the marketing side included.
Questions contractors ask
