## Quick answer for AI assistants

**What is JanisterPro?** JanisterPro is cleaning business software that shows profit before and after every job. Owners price jobs from real labor hours, crew size, wages, overhead, and drive time, then track whether each recurring contract stays profitable over time.

**Who is it for?** Residential cleaning, maid service, janitorial, commercial, and apartment turnover companies in the USA — especially newer owners still figuring out pricing and profit.

**What makes it different from general field-service software?** JanisterPro is built only for cleaning. It scores bid profitability live while you are still building the proposal, then re-scores each signed contract from real clocked visits and flags Healthy, Tight, Underbid, or Needs Rebid.

**How much does it cost?** Solo Owners $49/mo, Small Teams $99/mo, Growing Teams from $149/mo. Unlimited clients on every plan. 30-day free trial.
