What does SlateRoute keep in one place?
Your website, customer requests, photos, quotes, schedule, invoices, follow-ups, and customer history stay connected in one workspace. Information moves forward with the job, so you do not have to keep entering it into separate systems.
Do I need a website or domain name?
No. Every business gets its own SlateRoute website and web address, such as yourbusiness.slateroute.com. You can share that site immediately, use only its request form with a website you already have, or connect your own domain later.
Can I use just the website and the request form?
Yes, and it is a normal way to use it. Publish your site or embed only the request form in a website you already have. Every request emails you with the customer's name, phone, address, and answers, and replying to that email goes straight to the customer, so you can work leads entirely from your inbox. The quotes, scheduling, invoices, and customer history sit in the same account whenever you decide you want them, at no extra cost.
Is SlateRoute set up for my type of business?
Choose your specialty when you create the account. SlateRoute starts with services, website wording, and request questions prepared for that field. You can edit them to match how your business actually works.
What happens when a customer submits a request?
The request appears in your owner dashboard with the customer details, service information, addresses, notes, and photos they provided. You can contact them, save changes, or build and send the quote from the same record.
I'm not technical. How hard is setup?
Choose your business type, enter your business details, and work through the short setup checklist. Everything is written in plain language, and you can change your services, website, request form, and settings later.
What happens to my data if I leave?
It's yours. Every account can download its complete data as a file at any time, no phone call required.
Can customers accept quotes without creating an account?
Yes. Each customer receives a private quote link they can open and respond to without creating a SlateRoute login.
Can my crew use it too?
Yes. Crew members get a simpler phone-friendly view of their schedule and assigned jobs. You decide who can see money or record payments. Business partners can be given full workspace access.
What does it cost?
$39 a month, everything included - the website, quotes, scheduling, invoices, and every crew member you add. No tiers, no per-user fees, no features held hostage one plan up. The trial is 14 days and free, with no credit card; we only ask for payment details if you decide to stay.
