PaintClarity is Built Differently
PaintClarity is designed to be simple from day one, with the tools and feedback you need to manage and grow your painting business.
Watch the 5-Minute Walkthrough.
Most business software tries to serve every trade. PaintClarity is built exclusively for painting businesses, from solo painters to growing contractors. It captures your information once, then intelligently connects it across your entire workflow. With AI-powered suggestions, painting-specific automation, and a single source of truth for every job, PaintClarity helps you work faster, quote smarter, and spend less time on paperwork.
Create professional estimates, quotes, and bids, schedule jobs and crews, manage customers, track projects, measure actual production rates, accept online card payments, and understand where your profits come from. PaintClarity is job and business management software built exclusively for professional painters and painting contractors, whether you’re working solo or managing multiple crews.
From the office to the job site, everyone stays on the same page. Owners manage the business while painters access the job information they need from their phones. PaintClarity runs on a WordPress website you control, works across desktop and mobile, and has simple flat-rate pricing.

Frequently asked questions
Do I already need a website?
You need a self-hosted WordPress site. Once you have one, PaintClarity can be installed like another WordPress plugin. If you already have a website, you can install WordPress in a new folder and add the PaintClarity plugin.
What about a website that doesn’t use WordPress?
No need to replace it. You can install WordPress separately, use it exclusively for PaintClarity, and keep your existing website exactly as it is. Learn how to set up your PaintClarity workspace.
Is my customer data sent anywhere?
No, it stays in your own database. Optional features (AI, payments, maps) only contact those services when you enable them and only with the data that feature needs. See our Privacy Policy.
Who pays for AI and payment processing?
You do, through your own OpenAI and Stripe accounts. You stay in complete control of usage and costs. OpenAI usage is typically just a fraction of a cent to a few cents per action, and PaintClarity lets you set monthly usage caps to keep your AI costs predictable.
Can I try Pro risk-free?
Yes. Every Pro subscription comes with a 14-day satisfaction guarantee. If PaintClarity Pro isn’t working for your business, contact us within 14 days of purchase and we’ll refund you.
