Ten small jobs a week
shouldn't mean ten nights of paperwork.
VERA prices punch lists task by task, answers new requests with real open times, turns receipts into job costs, and has the invoice ready before you pack up. You approve every quote, message, and bill.

Powering handyman businesses from one truck to a small team
Small jobs, big pile of admin.
A handyman's office work scales with the number of jobs, not their size. That is what wears you down.
Lists that take an hour to price
Twelve little tasks, each a guess. VERA prices them from your own rate sheet so the estimate takes minutes to review.
Underbilling for materials
Hardware runs on your card, receipts in the cupholder. Photograph them and VERA attaches the cost to the job and the invoice.
Invoices sent days later
The longer you wait, the slower you get paid. VERA drafts the invoice as soon as the job is marked done.
Scope creep on site
While you are there, can you also look at the gate? VERA adds the extra as a revised estimate the customer accepts on their phone.
Knowing what not to touch
Recaps can flag the items that need a licensed electrician or plumber, so the customer hears it from you clearly.
Repeat customers forgotten
The customer with a second list in six months is your best lead. VERA spots follow-up work in past recaps and drafts the note.
A list comes in, a priced plan goes out.
Small jobs, fast turnaround, every step approved by you.
Tell VERA what you need. What comes back is a finished document, not a blank form.
6 documents handyman services actually send, set up with your business details, your pricing, and your branding.
Quote · make-ready
“The landlord on Park Street needs unit 3 ready by Friday.”
A make-ready quote built from your turnover checklist, plus a proposed Thursday slot on your calendar, both drafted for you to approve.
Invoice · receipt attached
“I just finished at the house on Ash Street. Bill it.”
An invoice from the hours on the job and the hardware-store receipt you photographed, with a pay link, waiting for your tap.
List · 7 follow-ups drafted
“Which past customers had a second list they wanted done?”
Customers whose recaps mention follow-up work, each with a short note offering to book it, queued for your approval.
VERA can work. You still control what leaves the business.

VERA for Handyman Services, in plain terms.
The questions people ask before they sign up, answered without the sales pitch.
What is VERA?
VERA is an AI business operations assistant for handyman services. It prepares quotes, invoices, follow-ups, scheduling changes, marketing content, customer messages and reports using the tools your business already uses. VERA works approval-first: it drafts the work and shows it to you, and nothing is sent, posted, booked or charged until you approve it.
Who is VERA for?
VERA is built for owner-operated and small-team businesses that run on jobs, quotes and invoices, and for the person in that business who does the office work after hours. It ships tailored setups for trades and home services, professional services, agencies, property and real estate, retail, hospitality, healthcare and auto repair.
How does VERA work?
VERA follows four steps: propose, approve, execute, log. You describe what you need in plain English, or VERA spots the work itself from your jobs and messages. It drafts the result and puts it in an approval queue. You approve, edit or reject it. Only then does VERA send it, and it records what it did.
Will VERA contact my customers without my permission?
No. Every message, quote, invoice, post and reminder that leaves your business waits in an approval queue until you approve it. You can turn on automatic sending for specific routine tasks, but only under rules you set yourself, and the default for everything is off. Every action VERA takes is written to an activity log you can read.
What software does VERA work with?
VERA connects to the accounting, calendar, payment, messaging, review and social tools most small businesses already run, including QuickBooks, Google Calendar, Gmail, Outlook, Stripe, Square, Instagram, Facebook and Mailchimp. You connect a tool by signing in to it, not by pasting API keys, and you can disconnect any of them at any time.
How much does VERA cost?
VERA has a free tier and four paid plans: Starter at $49 a month, Pro at $99 a month, Business at $199 a month and Agency at $399 a month. Every plan carries a month of AI work, connected integrations, scheduled tasks and team seats, and they differ by how much of each. The cheapest paid plan is Starter at $49 a month, and annual billing costs less than monthly.
What does VERA not do?
VERA does not act on your behalf without approval, and it does not replace your accountant, your lawyer or your licensed trades work. It does not file your taxes, sign contracts for you, or make decisions about hiring or firing. It is a web application only, with no desktop install, and it is sold in the United States.
Connects to the apps you already book from.
Connect lead, field-service, accounting, and payment tools so VERA works from your real requests and jobs.
Sign in once, no API keys. VERA reads only what you approve. Logos indicate available integrations, not partnerships.
Browse all 160 integrationsOne application for almost everything the business runs on.
Quoting, jobs, invoicing, customers, scheduling and marketing in one place, sharing the same data. No stack of six tools that do not talk to each other, and no re-typing the same job into three of them.

Is VERA the right call for you?
Including the cases where the answer is no. Those are the ones worth reading.
Is VERA right for my business?
VERA fits best when the office work is the bottleneck: quotes going out late, follow-ups not happening, invoices sitting unpaid, and nobody on payroll to chase them. It suits handyman services with one to about twenty-five people. If your admin is already fully covered by staff you trust, VERA has less to add.
How is VERA different from a general AI assistant like ChatGPT?
A general assistant writes text in a chat window and then you copy it somewhere. VERA is connected to your business: it reads your real jobs, customers, quotes and invoices, produces work inside those records, and can send it once you approve. It also keeps an approval queue and an activity log, which a chat window has no concept of.
How is VERA different from hiring a virtual assistant?
A virtual assistant is a person you hire, train, schedule and pay by the hour, typically several hundred to a few thousand dollars a month. VERA is software starting at $49 a month that works instantly, at any hour, and never needs handover notes. A person handles judgement and phone calls better; VERA handles volume and consistency better.
Is VERA safe to use with customer data?
Connector credentials are encrypted at rest, traffic is served over HTTPS, and you can disconnect any integration at any time to revoke access. VERA reads only what you connect and only writes what you approve. You can export your data and delete your account. The published security page states plainly what is in place and what is not yet.
Can I try VERA before paying?
Yes. There is a free tier that runs with no payment details, and a 7-day trial of the Business feature set. VERA also ships demo data for every connector, so you can watch it draft a quote, an invoice and a follow-up before connecting a single account. You can cancel at any time and export your data on the way out.

What a plan covers
Every plan carries a month of AI work. Everything you do with your own records is unmetered, so the only thing a heavy month can slow down is new drafting.
Uses your month of AI work
- Drafting a quote, an estimate, or a material takeoff
- Writing a customer reply, a follow-up, or a proposal
- Posts, captions, and a content calendar written for you
- Reading an invoice or a receipt you scanned in
- Research on your market and your competitors
- Reports and analysis of how the business is doing
Never touches it
- Sending a quote or an invoice you already approved
- Taking a payment and recording what came in
- Jobs and appointments moving through the calendar
- Reading, editing, and exporting your own records
- Connecting a tool, and everything it syncs in
- Adding people to the team and setting their access
Good to know
Open any question for the detail.
What are the plan limits?
Each plan includes a set number of seats, connected integrations, and scheduled tasks (see each card). Approval and automation capabilities also step up by plan.
What happens in a really busy month?
If you reach the end of a month's AI work, new drafting pauses and nothing else changes. Your data stays put, everything you already approved still runs, and your allowance refills at the start of the next billing cycle.
What do I get during the 7-day trial?
Enough AI work to put VERA through a real week of your own jobs, which is less than a paid month. Upgrade any time and your plan's full allowance and features unlock immediately.
How do I know how much I have left?
Your account header shows how much of the month is left, and the Usage page lists every job VERA has run and what it took. Nothing is spent without appearing there.
Frequently asked questions.
Can VERA price a long list of small repairs?
Yes. Paste or forward the list and VERA prices each task from your own rates, applies your minimum and trip charge, and drafts the estimate. You adjust it and approve it before it goes out.
How do I get material costs onto the invoice?
Photograph the receipt. VERA reads it, attaches it to the job, and the invoice can include it the way you bill materials. It also counts toward the job's real cost.
What if the customer adds work while I'm there?
Ask VERA to add it. It drafts a revised estimate the customer can accept and sign on their phone, so the extra is agreed before you start it.
Will VERA message my customers on its own?
No, unless you create a rule for a specific routine message. Everything else is drafted and waits for you, and every action is logged.
Can it help me get work from landlords and agents?
VERA keeps each property manager's and agent's properties and past jobs on their record, drafts make-ready and pre-listing quotes, and follows up when a quote goes unanswered.
Does it connect to Thumbtack, Angi, and Housecall Pro?
All three are in VERA's connector list, along with QuickBooks, Square, and Google Calendar. You connect each by signing in.
