Pricing

Pool Brain plans as published by the vendor.
Plan Price Includes Checked
Base Plan (Office Users) $50/month [src] Unlimited office/admin users. This base fee is required and combines with the per-technician fee below to make the total monthly plan.
Field Technician $65 per technician/month [src]
Minimum: The pricing calculator defaults to and starts at 5 active field technicians, selectable in increments of 5 up to 50. Not confirmed whether the per-tech rate changes at higher technician counts — only the 5-technician example ($325/month = 5 x $65) was verified.
Per active field technician, added to the $50/month base fee. Site example: 5 technicians = $325/month + $50/month base = $375/month total.
