ServiceTitan pricing at a glance: the reported per technician tiers
ServiceTitan does not publish prices on its website; a sales demo is required to get a quote. The figures below are reported by user disclosures and industry benchmarks, not official ServiceTitan rates, and should be confirmed directly. Pricing is charged per active technician a month across three tiers, with a typical monthly minimum floor of around $1,500 regardless of team size.
| Tier | Reported per technician a month | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $245 to $300 | Core scheduling, dispatch and invoicing |
| Essentials | $300 to $400 | Advanced reporting, CRM and integrations |
| The Works | $400 to $500 | Full marketing and reporting suite |
All figures are reported, not published by ServiceTitan. On top of the per technician subscription, there is a one time implementation fee of $5,000 to $50,000 or more, reported integration fees of roughly $3,000 to $10,000 a year, and a mandatory annual contract.
ServiceTitan tiers and first year costs explained
ServiceTitan bundles its features into three reported tiers, all priced per active technician a month, and layers a one time implementation fee on top. Because the software is sold by quote, the figures here are reported estimates.
Starter, $245 to $300 per technician
The entry tier covers the core operations: scheduling, dispatch and invoicing. Reports note that ServiceTitan often restricts or steers very small shops away from this tier, because the cost rarely pencils out below a handful of technicians.
Essentials, $300 to $400 per technician
Adds advanced reporting, CRM and third party integrations. This is the common tier for a growing residential HVAC, plumbing or electrical operation that needs more than basic dispatch.
The Works, $400 to $500 per technician
The full suite, adding marketing tools, deeper reporting and the broadest feature set. It fits multi location and enterprise operations that use the platform aggressively, including equipment tracking and flat rate pricing.
First year cost by team size
Combining the subscription and implementation, reported first year totals look like this:
| Team size | Est. monthly base | One time implementation | Est. year 1 total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 to 5 technicians | $1,200 to $2,000 | $5,000 to $10,000 | $19,000 to $34,000+ |
| 6 to 15 technicians | $3,000 to $5,500 | $12,000 to $25,000 | $34,000 to $75,000+ |
| 20+ technicians | $7,500 to $12,000 | $25,000 to $60,000 | $115,000 to $200,000+ |
Add ons such as Marketing Pro and Phones Pro raise the monthly cost further, and the annual contract means the commitment is yearly rather than month to month.
Is ServiceTitan worth the cost for your team
ServiceTitan is a deep, powerful platform, but the cost only makes sense at a certain scale. The quick read:
- 1 to 5 technicians often find the price hard to justify, and ServiceTitan itself tends to steer very small shops toward lighter tools.
- 6 to 20 technicians in residential HVAC, plumbing or electrical are the core fit, where the reporting, pricebooks and dispatch earn their cost.
- 20+ technicians and multi location fleets are the ideal buyer, using the full suite and add ons across the operation.
Whatever the size, ServiceTitan runs the back office rather than answering the phone, and its Phones Pro add on is a paid extra. A shop that wants every call answered and booked without adding to a per technician bill has an alternative in ServiceAgent, an AI front desk that starts at $0 and pairs with ServiceTitan.
The real cost of ServiceTitan: subscription, implementation and add ons
ServiceTitan’s real cost is the per technician subscription, plus the one time implementation fee, plus any add on modules, under an annual contract. All figures here are reported by user disclosures and industry benchmarks, not published by ServiceTitan. The monthly subscription carries a floor of around $1,500 even for a very small team.
ServiceTitan reported monthly cost by team and tier
The table sets the reported monthly subscription at four setups, before the one time implementation fee. The $1,500 monthly floor means a very small team pays the floor rather than a lower per technician total.
| Setup | Team and tier | Reported monthly | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small shop | 3 techs, Essentials | $1,500 | Monthly floor applies |
| Growing team | 8 techs, Essentials | $2,400 to $3,200 | 8 × $300 to $400 |
| Mid market | 15 techs, The Works | $6,000 to $7,500 | 15 × $400 to $500 |
| Large fleet | 25 techs, The Works | $10,000 to $12,500 | 25 × $400 to $500 |
On top of these monthly figures sits a one time implementation fee of $5,000 to $50,000 or more, reported integration fees of roughly $3,000 to $10,000 a year, and any add on modules. This is why a first year runs well above twelve times the monthly subscription.
ServiceTitan hidden costs: implementation, add ons and contract
Beyond the per technician subscription, several costs shape the real bill:
- Implementation fee. A mandatory one time setup and onboarding fee, reported $5,000 to $50,000 or more depending on size and complexity.
- Add on modules. Marketing Pro, Phones Pro and similar modules add monthly charges on top of the base subscription.
- Integration fees. Third party integrations are reported at roughly $3,000 to $10,000 a year.
- Annual contract. ServiceTitan requires a mandatory annual contract, commonly 12 months and sometimes longer, so the commitment is yearly, not month to month.
- No phone answering included. ServiceTitan runs the back office; answering calls needs the paid Phones Pro add on or a separate front desk.
Terms, contract, and quote
| Term | ServiceTitan |
|---|---|
| Public price list | None; pricing is quote based and needs a sales demo |
| Reported subscription | $245 to $500 per technician a month; about $1,500 monthly floor |
| Implementation fee | $5,000 to $50,000+ one time, reported |
| Contract length | Mandatory annual, commonly 12 months, sometimes longer |
| Phone answering | Not included; Phones Pro is a paid add on |
ServiceTitan reviews: what contractors say
ServiceTitan holds a 4.5 out of 5 across more than 350 reviews on G2 and a 4.3 out of 5 across roughly 340 reviews on Capterra, strong scores for a platform this large. Contractors most often praise the depth and power of the software: the dispatching, reporting, pricebooks and the way it ties a whole HVAC, plumbing or electrical operation together. The documented criticisms cluster on cost and complexity: the per technician price is high, the implementation fee and annual contract are a real commitment, the learning curve is steep, and smaller shops often feel the platform is more than they need. On value, the picture is a capable, enterprise grade platform that earns its keep at scale but is a heavy investment for a small team.
What contractors say about ServiceTitan pricing
On price, the documented themes are consistent. Larger operations that use the full platform tend to feel the cost is justified by the time saved and the revenue tools, while smaller shops and newer contractors find the per technician price, the implementation fee and the annual contract hard to justify. Reviewers also flag that the total creeps up as add on modules like Marketing Pro and Phones Pro are switched on, and that getting a clear number requires a sales demo. The common advice in reviews is to size the real first year cost, subscription plus implementation, before committing, since the annual contract locks it in.
ServiceAgent: the AI front desk that answers every ServiceTitan call
ServiceTitan runs scheduling, dispatch, invoicing and the back office, but answering the phone is a paid Phones Pro add on, and a missed or unbooked call is still lost revenue. Around 62% of calls to small businesses go unanswered, and 85% of those callers do not call back. ServiceAgent answers every call 24/7, qualifies the lead, books the job, and updates the record, then hands the booked work to the system that runs the schedule. It starts at $0 on the Launch plan and runs on usage based credits, so a shop pays for booked work rather than another per technician line item. ServiceAgent has handled more than 350,000 calls at a 100% capture rate and a 56% booking rate across more than 7,600 businesses. It pairs with ServiceTitan rather than replacing it.
ServiceTitan vs ServiceAgent: on call answering
ServiceTitan is field service software and ServiceAgent is a front desk, so the fair comparison is on the phones: what answers and books calls. ServiceTitan runs scheduling, dispatch and invoicing, which ServiceAgent does not, so this compares the call answering layer, not the back office.
| ServiceTitan | ServiceAgent | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Enterprise field service software for the trades | A dedicated AI front desk for home services |
| Answers inbound calls | Not by default; Phones Pro is a paid add on | Yes, 24/7 AI with human backup |
| Books the job from a call | Through staff using the software | Yes, books and qualifies automatically |
| Entry price | Reported $245 to $500 per technician a month | $0 (Launch) |
| Billing model | Per technician, annual contract, plus implementation | Usage based credits, no contract required |
| Scheduling, invoicing, dispatch | Yes, its core | No, pairs with the tool that does |
| Setup | $5,000 to $50,000 implementation | No setup fee |
| Best for | Growing and enterprise fleets running the back office | Shops losing jobs to missed and unbooked calls |
ServiceTitan fits a growing or enterprise operation that wants a full back office platform. ServiceAgent fits an owner who wants every call answered and booked on a flat price that starts at $0, and it pairs with ServiceTitan rather than replacing it.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions home service operators ask most often.
How much does ServiceTitan cost a month?
ServiceTitan does not publish prices. Reported figures put it at $245 to $500 per technician a month depending on the tier, with a typical monthly minimum floor of around $1,500. A one time implementation fee of $5,000 to $50,000 or more applies on top, and contracts are annual.
What are the ServiceTitan pricing tiers?
Reported tiers are Starter ($245 to $300 per technician a month) for scheduling, dispatch and invoicing; Essentials ($300 to $400) adding advanced reporting, CRM and integrations; and The Works ($400 to $500) adding the full marketing and reporting suite. Exact pricing requires a sales demo.
Does ServiceTitan charge an implementation fee?
Yes. ServiceTitan charges a mandatory one time implementation and onboarding fee, reported between $5,000 and $50,000 or more depending on company size and complexity. Third party integration fees of roughly $3,000 to $10,000 a year are also reported.
Does ServiceTitan require a contract?
Yes. ServiceTitan requires a mandatory annual contract, commonly 12 months, and some agreements run longer, into multi year terms. This is a key difference from month to month tools.
What does ServiceTitan cost in the first year?
Reported first year totals run about $19,000 to $34,000 for a small shop of one to five technicians, $34,000 to $75,000 for a growing team of six to fifteen, and well into six figures for a 20 plus technician fleet, including subscription and implementation.
Is ServiceTitan worth it for a small shop?
ServiceTitan is built for growing and enterprise teams, and reports note that sales often steers very small shops away because the cost does not pencil out at low technician counts. A small shop that mainly needs calls answered and jobs booked may be better served by a lighter tool plus an AI front desk.
Does ServiceTitan answer the phone?
ServiceTitan runs scheduling, dispatch, invoicing and the back office, and offers a paid Phones Pro add on for call tracking. It is not an AI receptionist. ServiceAgent answers every call with AI, books the job on a flat price from $0, and pairs with ServiceTitan rather than replacing it.
