Claver vs BookingKoala

Yes, if you do more than book jobs. BookingKoala is built around online booking and recurring scheduling, mainly for cleaning and other home-service businesses. Claver covers that same booking and recurring-billing workflow and adds drag-and-drop dispatch, GPS, route optimization, card and ACH payments through your own Stripe, and a built-in phone system with an AI receptionist. Claver uses flat pricing with no per-provider fees: Starter $19/mo (2 users), Crew $39/mo (5 users), and Business $59/mo (20 users). BookingKoala’s published plans start at Starter $27/mo.

Claver is $19/mo for Starter (2 users), $39/mo for Crew (5 users), and $59/mo for Business (20 users) — flat seat buckets, no per-provider fees, and no free tier. BookingKoala’s public pricing is Starter $27/mo for up to 5 providers, Growing $57/mo for up to 15 providers, and Premium $197/mo for up to 50 providers (verified June 2026). BookingKoala caps by provider count; Claver caps by user bucket.

Not in the same way. BookingKoala uses smart scheduling that assigns jobs based on provider availability, and it offers GPS clock-in/out for time tracking on its Growing and Premium plans. It does not include a full drag-and-drop dispatch board or native turn-by-turn route optimization. Claver includes a drag-and-drop dispatch board, GPS crew tracking, and route optimization starting on its Crew plan.

Correct. BookingKoala has no built-in phone system and no AI receptionist — it is designed to reduce inbound calls through self-service online booking. Claver includes in-app VoIP calling, missed-call text-back, and a 24/7 AI receptionist on the Business plan, so you can answer and book calls as well as take bookings online.

Yes. Export your customers and booking history from BookingKoala as CSV and upload them in Claver’s import wizard, which maps the columns for you. Most shops finish in about 20 minutes, and you can export your data from Claver as CSV anytime.

Yes. BookingKoala is a polished, booking-first platform for recurring home-service businesses, especially cleaning and maid services, and Claver covers that same online booking and recurring-billing workflow — live pricing, customer self-signup, and a customer portal. On top of it, Claver adds drag-and-drop dispatch, GPS, route optimization, card and ACH payments through your own Stripe, and a built-in phone line with a 24/7 AI receptionist, at flat pricing from $19/mo. If you want booking plus everything that happens after the booking, that is where Claver pulls ahead.
