PurVago vs Maidily

Maidily is cheaper. Here's what the difference buys.

Maidily is a well-liked, low-cost scheduler with a free tier and unlimited users. If scheduling, invoicing and reminders are all you need, it may be the right pick. PurVago costs more and does more. This page says exactly what "more" is, and where Maidily wins.

What you get for the difference

1

Estimates from photos

Snap the rooms and PurVago sizes the job and drafts the estimate with your prices. Quote a new customer in minutes instead of a site visit. Maidily has quote forms; it doesn't read the photos.

2

A crew app that works offline

Checklists, photos, GPS clock-in and add-on requests keep working with no signal and sync later. Reviewers of Maidily noted its mobile app and customer portal were still being built out.

3

Training and a customer portal

The PurVago Academy trains new hires with courses, checks and certificates. Your customers get a branded portal to approve estimates, see visits, request changes and pay.

Maidily pricing from maidily.com/pricing, September 2026.

Where Maidily wins.
  • Price. A five-cleaner company doing 100 jobs a month pays $49 at Maidily and $129 at PurVago.
  • A free plan and a trial with no card.
  • AI route suggestions and Airbnb/VRBO integration on its top plan.
If you're a solo operator watching every dollar and don't quote from photos, Maidily is a sensible choice. If your crew is in the field all day and you're quoting new homes every week, the difference pays for itself on the first estimate you win.

Questions people ask before switching from Maidily

Can a customer send me a video for a quote?

Yes. From Estimates, text or email them a video estimate link. They open it on their phone, tap each room, record a slow look around it, and send. PurVago's AI reads the rooms and files a request in your Estimates queue with the photos attached, ready for you to price and send.

How do I hand overflow work to 1099 contractors?

Mark them as contractors under Team, then on any visit tap Offer to a contractor. PurVago shows who is actually free that day and lets you offer to all of them at once with the pay. They get a text, first to accept gets the job, and the address is only shared after they accept. Insurance and license expiries are tracked, and anyone lapsed is held back.

Is PurVago more expensive than Maidily?

Yes. Maidily starts free and its paid plans run $29 to $99 a month by jobs per month. PurVago is $49, $129 or $299 a month by plan. The difference buys estimates from photos and customer-recorded video, an offline crew app with GPS clock-in, one-tap offers to 1099 contractors, a customer portal, review requests and a training academy.

Can I move my customers from Maidily to PurVago?

Export your customers as a CSV from Maidily and upload it at Clients → Import in PurVago; the columns match themselves. Appointment exports work the same way. Or send us the files and we load them within a business day, free.

Does PurVago have unlimited users like Maidily?

On Team and Business, yes: unlimited team members, employees and contractors alike. Solo is a one-person plan for owner-operators.

Does PurVago take a card for the free trial?

Yes, a card is required to start the 14-day trial, and nothing is charged until it ends. Maidily's trial does not require a card.

Which one is better for a solo cleaner?

If you clean alone, do not quote from photos and watch every dollar, Maidily's free or $29 plan is a sensible choice. PurVago's Solo plan at $49 adds photo estimates, review requests and the customer portal.
