# OpsLight vs the FSM incumbents.

ServiceTitan, Jobber, and Housecall Pro are real companies with real customers. Some of them are the right fit for your shop. Some aren't. We'd rather tell you which is which up front than sign you up to a system that doesn't match your shape.

The bigger frame

### A smaller version of the incumbents isn't the answer.

ServiceTitan, Jobber, and Housecall Pro all built on the same architectural assumptions: per-seat licensing, mobile-app-first crew workflow, walled-garden data, multi-month implementations. Those assumptions work for the top 20% of the service-trade market.

For the bottom 80%, roughly 2.4 million 1-to-10-employee service trade businesses in the US, those assumptions don't hold. Per-seat math breaks. App mutiny kills data quality. Lock-in destroys trust.

**OpsLight's wedge is being a different category, not a smaller version of the same one.** Flat-rate pricing. No app for the crew. Data lives in your own Google Sheet. Cancel by texting `CANCEL`. Five intake channels in one platform. Built for the long tail the legacy stack priced out.
