Pay for the unit. Nothing else.
Pricing fits the partnership: a fixed rate per qualified call, a retainer, or a revenue share, on a billable definition written into your agreement. Calls that fail the definition are filtered before they bill. Valid disputes are credited. The rate is a number the founder gives you on the fit call, not a card on a website.
Three tests before a unit bills.
Every agreement writes down what a billable unit is. For calls, three tests run on each one before it reaches an invoice.
Geography
The consumer's property sits inside the footprint you buy - counties, metros or service radius, as written. Out-of-footprint calls are not billed.
Duration
The call runs past the minimum connected duration in the agreement. Hang-ups, wrong numbers and dropped calls fall below it and are not billed.
Intent
The consumer is asking for a service you provide. Vendor calls, job seekers, duplicates inside the dedupe window and non-service calls are filtered.
How a number gets set.
Fixed, retainer or revenue share
A fixed rate per qualified call, a retainer for a reserved footprint, or a revenue share where the economics line up. The model is chosen on the fit call and written into the agreement.
Where you can dispatch
Media is bid per metro against the measured value of each call. A footprint you can actually serve, with capacity behind it, gets priced on what the market costs to win there.
What you take
Water, fire, smoke, mold, biohazard, or the full set. Narrower job types mean tighter filters and a different cost to generate.
How you answer
Answer rate and speed to dispatch change what a call is worth to you. Weekly review against real dispositions keeps the rate honest in both directions.
The record decides.
Each unit carries source, timestamps, consent trail and routing history. When you question a call, the record answers in minutes. A valid dispute is credited on the next invoice. A pattern of disputes changes the filters - tighter geography, longer minimum duration - not the relationship. How dispute handling works.
Pricing, in plain terms.
How much does a restoration call cost?
Rates are set per partner in the written agreement and depend on the vertical, the footprint, the job types you take and the pricing model - fixed, retainer or revenue share. We do not publish a rate card; the founder gives you a straight number on the fit call once footprint and capacity are known.
Do I pay for every call?
No. You pay for calls that meet the billable definition: inside your footprint, over the minimum duration, and about a service you provide. Everything else is filtered before it reaches the invoice.
What happens when I dispute a call?
The record decides. Each unit carries source, timestamps, consent and routing history. A valid dispute is credited on the next invoice; a pattern of disputes changes the filters, not the relationship.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Volume starts controlled and scales with the data. Terms, including any minimums, are set in the agreement and reviewed weekly against real dispositions.
Are there setup fees?
Tracking numbers, delivery wiring and postbacks are configured and tested during onboarding as part of going live. Any fees are stated in the agreement, not buried in the rate.
