The big players
Lead Generation / Marketplaces

The platform operates a pay-per-lead model (Angi Leads), display advertising (Angi Ads), and a fixed-price instant-booking service powered by the 2018 Handy acquisition. Angi completed its spin-off from IAC on April 1, 2025, becoming an independent public company (NASDAQ: ANGI).

Why your details matter
The right stack — and what it actually costs — depends on specifics most “best software” lists ignore: how many trucks you run, how many people are selling versus doing the work, and whether you lean commercial or residential. A solo operator and a 40-truck company buying the same FSM platform will pay very differently and use it very differently. The archetypes below start from company size; a fuller, personalized version of this — built from your own trade card — is coming next.
Typical stacks by company type
Solo / 2-Truck Owner-Operator
The self-employed tradesperson or micro-crew running on personal hustle and minimal tooling. Jobs are dispatched from a phone, invoices are often paper or a basic app, and new work arrives through word-of-mouth and marketplace listings. Technology decisions are driven by cost sensitivity and simplicity, not capability gaps.

Approximate — assumes a ~2-person company (this archetype's typical size) and one tool per category. Your actual stack and headcount will change this.

Multi-Location Trade Service Franchise
A franchisee or small franchise network operating under a national brand (Neighborly, Authority Brands, or similar) where the franchisor mandates core technology — most commonly ServiceTitan — as a condition of franchise agreement. The franchisee has limited stack autonomy but real operational needs around cross-location visibility, local marketing, and independent financial reporting that the mandated stack does not fully satisfy. Technology decisions are split between what the franchisor requires and what the local operator adds on top.
5–50 employees per location, 2–20 locations · $3M–$50M total network revenue

Frequently asked questions
How were these tools ranked?▾
By how often they show up in real contractor stacks across company sizes, then by vendor tier, review rating, and pricing transparency — not by who pays us. See /how-we-vet.
Are these prices accurate?▾
Where a vendor publishes pricing, we show it exactly. Where they don't, we show a sourced, dated estimate range instead of guessing — and label it as an estimate. Tools with neither are marked quote-only and excluded from the cost totals.
Why does my stack cost differ from the totals here?▾
The per-archetype totals assume one tool per category and a company sized to that archetype's typical range — your actual headcount, trucks, and tool choices will move the number.
