What it finds

Seven leaks Bleedwise hunts, ranked by dollar impact.

Every monthly diagnostic ranks these by how much each one is costing you — so you fix the biggest first, not the loudest.

#LeakTypical bleedStatus
  • 01

    Service-labor efficiency

    Billable hours per technician, recovery rate on flagged tickets, and the gap between clock and on-the-clock time.

    −$11k–$28k/mo
    Standard leak #1
  • 02

    Installation gross margin

    Material + labor cost vs. sold price across installs, with the variants that consistently come in under-water.

    −$9k–$22k/mo
    Standard leak #2
  • 03

    Materials variance

    Pricing drift between quoted materials and invoiced materials, by SKU, by tech, by job category.

    −$6k–$14k/mo
    Common on long-tail SKUs
  • 04

    Overtime compression

    When overtime becomes the norm, it silently eats gross margin. Detected by week, by crew, by job type.

    −$4k–$18k/mo
    Largest in Q2 / Q3
  • 05

    Maintenance-plan economics

    Whether your membership contracts are actually profitable — membership billing, response labor, callback mix.

    −$3k–$12k/mo
    Often mis-tooled
  • 06

    Callback rate

    Callbacks tie up trucks and erode trust. Identified by tech, by install class, by warranty window.

    −$2k–$9k/mo
    Tracks install margin
  • 07

    Missed-call revenue

    Reconstructs lost inbound calls from call logs + CRM notes and prices them against your average ticket.

    −$5k–$15k/mo
    Found, not guessed

How it works

Upload. Detect. Decide.

Three steps. Nothing to install, nothing to integrate, no new field-service software.

  1. Step01

    Upload

    Drop a QuickBooks P&L export or a single monthly CSV. No integrations to stand up, no field-service software to swap.

  2. Step02

    Detect

    Bleedwise runs the diagnostic across job type, cost line, technician, and month — and ranks the leaks by dollar impact.

  3. Step03

    Decide

    You receive a plain-English diagnosis: what is leaking, where, by how much, and the specific action that plugs it.

Benchmarks

Pricing sits below the gap open between you and the alternatives.

Bleedwise is a thin intelligence layer — it sits on top of ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, QuickBooks, whatever you already run. You don't swap your stack; you add a diagnostic.

Per-technician dashboards

$40–$80 / tech / mo

ServiceTitan / Housecall Pro — bundled dashboards, leak buried.

Fractional CFO engagement

$3k–$8k / mo

Profitability Partners — bespoke, slow, lateral to ops.

Job-costing apps

$60–$200 / mo

Simpro / myQuoteIQ — good at costing, blind to monthly trend.

The fit
Bleedwise

Under $149 / mo

Flat, sits on top of anything. Diagnostic, not another dashboard.

Pricing

One price. No per-technician fees.

A flat monthly rate — the price gap left open between bundled dashboards and fractional-CFO engagements.

  • Unlimited QuickBooks / CSV uploads
  • Full 7-leak diagnostic each month
  • Trend comparison (this month vs. last; Q1 vs. Q2)
  • Industry benchmarks for $500K–$10M contractors
  • Plain-English recommendations, not dashboards
  • Direct line to the team — no ticket queue
