Software for cleaning companies
Stackap Business has more code written for cleaning than for any other trade, so cleaning is its deepest vertical: intake, quoting, availability, recurring visits, crews, pay, reviews and books are built around how a cleaning business runs.
Why cleaning is the deepest vertical
Most of the software's scheduling, recurring-work and crew logic was written for cleaning first. Other trades run on the same engine with a starter service list and an intake checklist. Cleaning has the most vertical-specific code behind it, and the sections below name what that code does.
Stackap Business is working software for running a service business, with its capabilities documented from the code. It is being brought onto the Stackap platform, so an outside agent can operate it with the same scoped tokens, approvals and API that Stackap Cloud uses. That work is in progress. The cleaning features run inside the business software today. Operating them through the Stackap API with an outside agent is not yet available.
From first message to booked visit
A starter set of six services comes with a cleaning business: standard, deep, move-in or move-out, post-construction cleanup, short-stay turnover and office cleaning. A guided intake asks for the type of clean, bedrooms and bathrooms, the day and time that suit, name, phone, address and email, and any special requests such as pets and access. The same checklist drives a text or chat conversation, so a lead can be taken from first message to a booking without a person typing each answer. AI-assisted draft quotes are available for cleaning, and bedrooms and bathrooms are captured as the measurements a quote is built from.
Availability that knows about travel
One function decides whether a team member can take a slot, and every part of the system uses it: the matcher, booking guards, the recurring generator and the schedule monitor. It accounts for working days and hours, time-off blocks, a maximum number of jobs per day and a sixty-minute travel buffer between jobs, so a cleaner is not booked across the city with no time to get there. Pay rules can depend on where the job is: a flat premium rate for the New Jersey, Long Island and Westchester zones is built in for the New York metro area.
Recurring visits
Weekly and biweekly clients are the base of most cleaning companies, and recurring schedules are first-class here. Visits are generated on a rolling basis, one-off skips are recorded as exceptions, a schedule can be paused or cancelled, and a forecast shows expected revenue. Clients with several properties keep one record with several addresses.
Crews, pay and reputation
Cleaners use a portal on their phone to see jobs, check in and out with location distance rules and set availability, and the office is alerted to late check-ins. Payouts and weekly staff payroll runs post to the books, and job costing shows what each visit earned after labor. After a job, the software requests a review, can offer a credit for leaving one and syncs Google reviews.
Early-access scope
- The depth is proven in the New York metro area. Zone and pay rules are written for that region, and other regions need their own rules set up.
- No figures about customers or revenue are published here, and this page makes no claim about how many companies use the software. It describes what the code does.
- No tracking of cleaner licenses, insurance or background checks.
- Dispatch optimization is not claimed: route code exists but its quality across large crews has not been evaluated.
- Native e-signature and the books have not been independently audited or certified.

Can it run a cleaning company with only a few cleaners?
