Pricing
We get paid when
you get paid.
A small share of the revenue Plinth actually generates for you, over a monthly minimum that our share is credited against — so you pay one or the other, never both. Do enough business through Plinth and the subscription disappears entirely. If we don’t make you money, we don’t make real money. No retainers for clicks you can’t bank.
One bill, not two. A share only on jobs we cause.
A monthly minimum — not an extra bill
From $199/month, and it is a floor rather than an addition: every dollar of our share is credited straight back against it. In a month where we earn that much from your results, your subscription is $0. You pay the minimum or our share — whichever is greater, never both.
A small share of the jobs we cause
A small share of the revenue from jobs Plinth sourced — earned when we bring you the customer, so it applies however you get paid, including cash or check. Billing your own existing customers through Plinth is just a small processing markup, not the full share.
An optional website built to book
Add a fast, search-optimized website on your own domain — built to convert visitors into booked jobs and feed the rest of the engine. Available as an add-on.
Plans start at a $199/month minimum, and our share is credited against it — so a busy month costs you the share and nothing else. We’ll fit the right plan to your business and walk you through the share on a quick call — no surprises, nothing buried in fine print.
A note on commitment: No long-term contract. Plinth is month-to-month — we earn your business every month by booking jobs and proving the revenue, so you can cancel anytime. We’ll walk you through the full terms with you before you start.
Your $199/month minimum is credited against our share, so on the job below the share is what you pay — the subscription is already covered by it. What changes from one job to the next is a single thing — whether Plinth sourced it:
Counts · Plinth sourced it
A $6,000 job Plinth sourced for you
- Plinth's share (3.5%)
- Charged only because we sourced it — and only once the customer pays.
- $210
- You keep
- The rest of the $6,000 is yours.
- $5,790
Never counts · your own customer
A $6,000 job you billed through Plinth
- Plinth's markup (0.4%)
- Just processing — never the share, because we didn't source it.
- $24
- You keep
- Almost all of the $6,000 is yours.
- $5,976
Our share runs 3–4% of the revenue on jobs Plinth sourced (about 3.5% in this example) — we’ll land on your exact rate within that range on the call, with nothing buried in fine print. It applies only to jobs we caused, and only when the customer pays.
How your customer pays is their choice, and it changes only the processor’s fee — not Plinth’s. Bank transfer runs about $5 flat — the cheapest option on a big job, and the one Plinth offers first. Paying by card carries the standard ~2.9% (the same with any processor) — that’s never a Plinth fee.
What counts as a job we caused?
Counts
A new customer Plinth answered and booked for you, whose job then got paid. We were in the whole chain — lead, booking, payment — so the credit is provable, not claimed.
Never counts
Your repeat customers coming back on their own, referrals, and anyone who calls your cell directly — those are yours. Bill them through Plinth and you pay only the small processing markup, never the share.
One exception, and it’s the good kind: when our automated follow-up wakes up one of your past customers and books them, that’s a flat $35 rescue — never the share. They’re still your customer; we just proved we brought them back.
And you don’t take our word for it: your dashboard shows the exact list of counted jobs and what each one was worth — the same numbers your bank statement shows.
What’s included
One system — not five subscriptions stitched together. Every plan includes:
- The Plinth Assistant — answers every text, call, and web inquiry in seconds, 24/7
- Instant booking onto your calendar + confirmation texts
- Full conversation history — read any transcript, take over a thread in one tap, and hand it back to the Assistant when you're done
- Fast payment collection on big-ticket jobs — card, Apple/Google Pay, bank transfer, or a pay-by-text link, with deposits and automatic reminders
- Automatic Google review requests the moment a job is paid
- Win-back follow-up on cold leads and past customers
- Get-found tools: Google profile, reviews, and a schema-rich web presence
- Performance & attribution — see exactly which leads, sources, and jobs produced the revenue you can prove we caused
Plans scale with your shop — we’ll fit the right one to your volume on the call.
One system, not five
What you’d spend stitching it together
Do what Plinth does on your own and you’re paying for a lead source, an answering service, a website, and a card processor — then keeping a spreadsheet to guess which one actually made you money. Plinth is the one system that runs all of it, and the only one that proves the revenue.
| What has to happen | On your own, that’s… | Typical cost on your own | Plinth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Get found on Google — and in AI answers | a marketing / SEO agency | ~$1,500–3,000/mo | Included |
| Answer every lead in seconds, day or night | an answering service | ~$300–600/mo | Included |
| Talk to each customer — book, answer, follow up | office staff or a call center | ~$2,000–4,000/mo | Included |
| A website that actually books jobs | a web designer | ~$150–300/mo | Included |
| Take the payment | a card processor | ~2.9% per charge | Included |
| Ask for the Google review at the right moment | a reviews tool | ~$100–300/mo | Included |
| Win back cold leads and past customers | usually no one | ~$200–500/mo | Included |
| Prove which jobs your spend caused | a spreadsheet, at best | ~$200–500/mo | Automatic |
| What you’d spend stitching it together | ~$4,450–9,200/mo | from $199/mo+ a share of jobs we cause |
Costs are typical standalone-vendor ranges, not a Plinth quote — and that’s four or five logins with still a guess at the end. Plinth is one system that shows you the dollars.

Why we price this way
A marketing agency bills you whether or not the phone rings. An answering service bills per call. We tie what you pay to the paid jobs we cause — and then show you exactly which ones they were. You’re never paying for a promise you can’t see on your bank statement.
Lock in our best terms
We’re accepting a small group of contractors right now. You pay nothing up front — only when we produce paid jobs for you. Limited spots.
