October 2026: Platform Progress & Trial Offer

Our latest Alpha Field Service update connects the current private-beta progress with a clearer path to trying the platform: a 14-day trial with no credit card required after invitation and activation, plus an annual subscription offer equivalent to 2 months free when billing becomes available.

  • Private-beta early-access leads can be handed off to Alpha Field Service Platform Admin; the owner-verified workflow preserves approved lead information.
  • The connected core covers requests, customers and properties, quote approval, recurring visits, field work, customer portal, and invoicing.
  • Scheduled-billing queue and card-later authorization recovery have been implemented; final live authorization and regression verification remain open.
  • Annual subscription pricing is planned at 10 monthly payments for 12 months of access. Public self-service Stripe subscription checkout is still being prepared.
  • This October marketing refresh is checkpointed in the website workspace; live website deployment awaits publisher authentication.
