FieldPulse lists contractors across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, garage door, locksmith, appliance repair, fire and security, septic and A/V installation, and markets itself by residential, commercial, franchise and home-service segments. It emphasises workflow customisation and scaling for growing trade businesses rather than deep construction project controls, so it suits specialty trade contractors better than general builders.

Bottom line
FieldPulse is field service management software for growing trade contractors such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing. It combines scheduling, dispatching, work orders, estimates, invoicing and payments with guided onboarding and vendor-run support. Optional premium products add Operator AI (after-hours call answering and job booking), ClearPath workflows, Pricebook, Engage phone, fleet tracking and custom forms. Pricing is seat-based and quoted privately, so total cost depends on team size and which premium modules are adopted.
Frequently asked questions
How does FieldPulse pricing work?
FieldPulse is seat-based: you purchase a set number of seats upfront for the contract term, and the rate depends on what each seat needs access to. Pricing is customized to team size and setup, so no list price is published — you request a quote. Optional premium products such as Engage, Operator AI, Pricebook, Payments and Fleet Tracking are quoted separately.
How long does it take to get live?
FieldPulse advertises fast onboarding and implementation and says it partners with customers through setup, migration and training. Exact timelines are not published, so ask for a migration and go-live plan during the demo before committing.
What does Operator AI actually do?
It is marketed as a 24/7 AI dispatcher that answers after-hours, declined or overloaded calls and books jobs directly into FieldPulse, avoiding voicemail and manual entry. Model choice, data handling and AI audit logging are not documented on the vendor pages reviewed.
What support is included after go-live?
The vendor promotes US-based support, a help center and a customer support phone line, plus help with setup, migration and training. Specific support hours and any response-time SLA are not published, so confirm them in the contract.
Can we add seats as the team grows?
Yes. The pricing FAQ states that seats can be added as your team grows, though per-seat rates are quoted rather than published, so budget on a custom annual contract rather than a fixed list price.
Who is FieldPulse aimed at?
Growing trade service businesses: HVAC, electrical, plumbing, garage door, locksmith, appliance repair, fire and security, septic, A/V installation and property management, sold to residential, commercial and franchise operators.
