When to choose which

Stick with ServiceTitan if…

  • • You operate at very large scale (75+ technicians) and need ServiceTitan's enterprise-grade reporting, marketing automation, and supply-chain integrations.
  • • You depend on ServiceTitan-specific integrations like Pricebook Pro or branded financing partners.
  • • Your franchise group mandates ServiceTitan as the corporate platform.

Switch to GridBoss if…

  • • Per-tech pricing is eating your margin and you'd rather pay a flat monthly fee.
  • • You want a built-in AI phone assistant and a flat-priced phone system without separate add-ons.
  • • You need to be productive this week, not after a 90-day onboarding.
  • • You want a public REST API and MCP server without an enterprise contract.

FAQ

Is GridBoss cheaper than ServiceTitan?
Almost always, yes — GridBoss is flat-priced from $49–$199/month with no per-technician fees, while ServiceTitan typically runs hundreds per tech per month. A 12-tech crew on ServiceTitan can easily cost $4,000–$6,000/month; the same crew on GridBoss Pro is $99/month. The crossover point is usually a feature gap (e.g. enterprise reporting), not a cost gap.
Can I migrate my customer data from ServiceTitan?
Yes. GridBoss has a built-in ServiceTitan API import for customers, locations, jobs, and invoices. CSV export from ServiceTitan also works. For complete migrations including invoices, payments, and recurring service plans, email hello@gridboss.io and the team will help.
Does GridBoss have an AI phone assistant like ServiceTitan?
Yes — and it's included on Pro ($99/month) and Business ($199/month) plans without a separate add-on charge. The AI answers, identifies the caller, looks up customer info, books appointments, and transfers to a human when needed. ServiceTitan typically charges separately for this functionality through partners.
What about the ServiceTitan Pricebook?
GridBoss has a built-in pricebook (line items, labor and material categories, taxes) on every plan. It's lighter than ServiceTitan's Pricebook Pro but covers the day-to-day estimate and invoice flow without an extra subscription.
