What the prices do not tell you

Markate
The base plan is deliberately thin. Online booking, the customer portal, proposals, Zapier and a texting number are $10 a month each, so price the add-ons you actually need before comparing. Every employee past the owner is $5 a month on top. Plan prices re-read in Chrome on 2026-09-29 on both toggles and unchanged. The page's HTML also carries a feature list with the $10 add-ons and per use marketing charges (an SMS blast at a $10 setup fee plus 5 cents a segment, ringless voicemail at $10 plus 20 cents each, drip texts at 10 cents), but that section did not render in Chrome that day, so those charges are not recorded as fees. No card rate is published: payments run through Square.
Contractor Foreman
The pricing page only offers annual and quarterly billing, so there is no month to month number to compare. It also carries a 100 day money back guarantee alongside the 30 day trial. Annual plan prices and yearly totals re-read in Chrome on 2026-09-29 and unchanged; the page now lives at /plans/. The 20% is measured against quarterly billing, the only other option.
