Fieldwork
“Can a lean, pest-control-native FSM tool win SMB service businesses through simplicity and QuickBooks-plus-Stripe integrations rather than deep embedded finance?”

The story
Fieldwork is a small, bootstrapped-style vertical SaaS for pest control, lawn care, pool service, and general field service businesses, headquartered in Niles, IL. The company monetizes through per-user monthly subscriptions ($59-$99/mo) and layers embedded payments (Stripe, PayPal) and QuickBooks sync on top of core scheduling/CRM/invoicing workflows. It has not moved into deeper embedded finance (lending, BaaS, cards) — its financial layer remains classic pay-in acceptance for service invoices.
