How cleaners actually use Operaite.

Recurring cleaners have one giant pain point: regenerating last week's invoice for this week's same customer, twenty times. Operaite is built for that — saved customer profile, saved line items, regenerate and send in under a minute. Most cleaning owners do this in batches on Friday afternoon for the whole week's recurring routes.

Deep cleans, move-outs, and post-construction are different. These come out of the proposals tool, scoped per-room or per-square-foot. Customers want to see exactly what's included before they say yes — Operaite's proposals show line-itemed scope with photos optional, so there's no "but I thought that was included" after the job.

Reviews are oxygen for cleaning businesses. The AI review responder turns each new 5-star into a reply in under a minute that doesn't sound like every other cleaning company. The marketing audit shows which competitors are out-reviewing you and what they're saying — usually the answer is they're asking for reviews and you're not.

Frequently asked.

Does it handle recurring weekly / biweekly contracts?
Auto-recurring billing isn't built yet. Most cleaners use Operaite to invoice each visit fast — saved client info means each repeat invoice is regenerate-and-send, not retype-everything.
Can I use it for both residential and commercial clients?
Yes — separate client profiles for each. Residential gets per-visit invoicing; commercial often gets monthly invoicing.
Can it handle move-in / move-out / deep clean pricing?
Yes — line items support per square foot, per bedroom + bathroom, hourly with minimum, or flat pricing.
How does it help with the "request more reviews" problem?
The AI review responder makes replying fast; the marketing audit tells you where you stand vs competitors; email templates include a 'request a review' template.
Does Operaite work for cleaning crews of 3–10 people, or just solo cleaners?
Either — a crew is where it shines. Assign each job to a cleaner who gets their own task list and a tap-to-navigate day route, mark work done, and track payroll in the accounting tab. The $29/mo base covers you; add team members at $5/mo each, and office/bookkeeping (Viewer) seats are free.
How does it handle Airbnb / short-term-rental turnover clients?
Airbnb hosts usually want a flat per-turnover rate that includes laundry and restock. Save each property as its own client; create a standard turnover invoice as a saved template; regenerate after each turn. Income tracking by property tells you which Airbnb is the actually-profitable one and which one is eating your margins.
