The honest comparison

When each one wins

Choose Cleanr if…

Cleaning is the whole business and cash flow is the whole game. You want recurring cleans laid out for the week, cleaners dispatched from your phone, home records that remember gate codes and the no-bleach rule, and a card-ready invoice you can send as soon as the work is complete — for a price that doesn't climb every time you hire.

Choose Housecall Pro if…

You want a big platform's add-on ecosystem — consumer financing, a marketing suite, call answering — and you're comfortable paying tier-by-tier to unlock it. For multi-trade operations or businesses that lean hard on those extras, the horizontal breadth is a real advantage.
