Competitors have 3–4 pricing tiers and lock essential features behind expensive upgrades. Need SMS? Upgrade. Need boarding? Add-on. Need reports? Enterprise plan. Animal Friends OS rejects this. One plan, $45/month, every feature included from day one. No surprises on your invoice, ever.

Flat pricing means one plan at one price with every feature included. Animal Friends OS is $45/month. There are no tiers (Basic, Pro, Enterprise), no add-on packages, no per-user fees, and no usage limits. You get everything from day one.
Tiered pricing lets competitors lock essential features behind expensive plans. Need online booking? Upgrade to Pro. Want SMS reminders? That is the Business plan. Need reports? Enterprise only. Animal Friends OS includes all of these in the base $45/month plan because we believe basic business tools should not be paywalled.
No. $45/month is the total cost. No setup fees, no implementation fees, no SMS surcharges, no per-user fees, no per-location fees, no payment processing markups. You also choose your own payment processor so we never take a cut of your revenue.
New features are included in your existing $45/month plan automatically. We do not create new tiers or charge upgrade fees for new functionality. Every customer gets every feature.
Gingr starts at $125+/month and requires their payment processing. MoeGo starts at $80+/month with boarding as a paid add-on. DaySmart starts at $100+/month with SMS extra. Animal Friends OS is $45/month with everything included — saving you $420–$960+ per year before add-on fees.
