Run route-optimized weekly service days, log every chemistry reading + product added to the specific pool, track equipment repairs, and auto-invoice on completion — from your phone.
Pool service is a route business first, a chemistry business second, and an equipment-repair business third. FieldKrew keeps all three in the same job record: every recurring pool on a cadence, a chemistry log per visit tied to that pool's history, and a separate repair-job flow for the times a pump or heater eats an afternoon. Nothing lives in a paper notebook on the truck.
Yes. Each pool (job) has a Chemistry section — record FC, TC, CC, pH, TA, CH, CYA, temp, chemicals added, and notes on every visit. History tail shows the last N visits so trends are obvious.
Convert a service stop into a repair job in one tap — different job type, different price, different invoice line. Routine service continues on cadence; the repair invoices separately.
The calendar clusters jobs by address so a Monday route with 12 pools bunches by neighborhood. Full turn-by-turn optimization is on the roadmap; address clustering + drag-to-reorder handles most of the routing pain today.
Optional. Toggle per-account: customers can log into a portal that shows their last 12 chemistry readings + any equipment notes. Some pool guys treat this as a Pro-tier upsell ( style="max-width:780px;margin:0 auto;padding:48px 24px;font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,sans-serif;line-height:1.55;color:#0f172a"0-15/mo more).
$49.99/mo Pro flat, 10 team seats included. You could add 7 more techs before paying a cent extra per seat.
Skimmer is the pool-specific market leader at $49-99/mo. FieldKrew is $49.99/mo flat with equivalent chemistry logs + recurring routes, plus a full CRM (quotes, jobs, invoices, subs) around it. If you only want route + chemistry, Skimmer is more polished; if you want an all-in-one, FieldKrew matches on price and adds the rest.
Both are pool-specific at $30-99/mo. Trade-off same as Skimmer — they're deeper on pool workflow, FieldKrew is broader on business management. Most single-truck operators pick whichever they saw a friend using; multi-truck ops tend to appreciate FieldKrew's team + payments features.
Yes. CSV export from either → CSV upload to FieldKrew. Customer name, address, pool volume, current chemistry baseline, service cadence, and price all map over. Typical 300-pool route imports in ~15 minutes.
Yes. Set target ranges per pool (some homeowners run high CYA, some low); readings that fall outside get flagged red on the log so the tech knows to add chemicals or note an issue before leaving.
Yes. Seasonal one-time services (spring opening, fall closing, green-to-clean) all get their own booking form. Customer picks a date, pays deposit, auto-scheduled to your calendar.
When the tech marks a job complete, an invoice auto-generates with the recurring price + any chemicals added + any repair work. Emailed/texted to customer within minutes of the tech leaving. Cuts average pay time from 30-45 days to 7-14.
Yes. Set customers on autopay (card or ACH); FieldKrew charges the card on file when the invoice generates. Card 2.9% + $0.30, ACH 0.8% capped at $5. For weekly $85 service that's $2.77 card or $0.68 ACH.
Yes. Customers, invoices, payments both directions. Handles class tracking (service vs repair vs product sales) and 1099 sync for helpers.
Reviews module sends SMS/email 24-48 hours after job completion with one-tap review link. Pool service response rates typically 40-55%.
Native iOS on App Store; Android in beta (Play Store Q4 2026). Tech logs chemistry, takes pool photos, marks complete, triggers invoice — all from their phone in the customer's backyard.
iOS app queues chemistry logs and photos when offline; syncs when signal returns. Android and web are network-dependent for now.
Convert a service stop into a repair job in one tap; different job type, different price, different invoice line. The routine weekly service continues on cadence; the repair invoices separately so a $340 salt cell doesn't get accidentally rolled into $85 service.
Yes. Each customer has an Equipment section — pump make/model, heater, filter, sanitizer type. Populates automatically into repair quotes so you're not asking the customer 'what pump do you have?' six months later.
Most pool guys switch over in one weekend: CSV export Friday, upload Saturday, cut over Monday. Skimmer's chemistry history imports as CSV; historical readings stay searchable in FieldKrew from day one.
One-click CSV export of every customer, chemistry log, repair, and invoice. Daily R2 backups, 30-day retention. No lock-in.
