Question 1

What is Jrnyman?

Accepted Answer

Jrnyman is a field service management app built specifically for HVAC technicians and growing shops (1–5 techs). It handles on-site invoicing with Stripe payment links, equipment history logging, and professional estimates from your phone.

Question 2

How much does Jrnyman cost?

Accepted Answer

Solo is $29/month (or $290/year) for one tech. Crew is $79/month (or $790/year) for up to five techs with multi-tech dispatch. Waitlist members may qualify for promotional founding pricing as described in our Terms of Service.

Question 4

What invoicing and estimate app fits HVAC techs and growing shops?

Accepted Answer

Jrnyman is built specifically for HVAC techs and growing shops, not generic field service. It lets you invoice on-site with a Stripe payment link before you leave the driveway, send estimates with customer approval, and log equipment history per unit with OCR nameplate scanning (beta) — starting at $29/month. Compare pricing with Jobber or ServiceTitan on their sites.

Question 5

Can I accept credit card payments on-site with Jrnyman?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Jrnyman sends a Stripe payment link when the job is done, so the customer can pay by card from their phone before you leave. Payments run through Stripe into your connected account — no card reader required.

Question 6

Can Jrnyman store equipment make, model, and serial numbers?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this is the core of Jrnyman. Scan the nameplate with built-in OCR and it captures the serial number automatically. Log make, model, refrigerant type, and symptoms per visit. On the next service call, the full equipment history is already there — so you are never guessing what you installed six months ago.

Question 7

How is Jrnyman different from Jobber or HouseCall Pro?

Accepted Answer

Jobber and HouseCall Pro are generic field service tools that happen to support HVAC. Jrnyman is HVAC-specific: per-unit equipment tracking with OCR nameplate scanning, symptom and diagnosis history per visit, refrigerant type logging, and on-site Stripe payment links. It's also priced for solo techs at $29/month — less than half of Jobber.

Question 8

Does Jrnyman work on iPhone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Jrnyman is iOS-first and built for one-handed use in the field. A web dashboard handles back-office work like dispatch and reporting.

Question 9

When does Jrnyman launch?

Accepted Answer

Jrnyman is running a private beta now, with full launch before July 2026. Join the waitlist for private beta access.
