It offers detailed job forms, compliance certificates, and a polished workflow — but it runs exclusively on iOS. If you or anyone on your team uses an Android phone, ServiceM8 simply isn't an option.
bram.chat runs on WhatsApp, which works identically on any phone — iPhone, Android, tablet, it doesn't matter. Your customers are already on WhatsApp. Your quotes and invoices go out through the same channel where they already talk to you, which means faster responses and fewer missed jobs.
ServiceM8's pricing model can also add up: it typically charges a monthly platform fee plus a per-job fee once you exceed a usage threshold. For a busy sole trader completing dozens of jobs a month, those costs compound quickly. bram.chat is a flat monthly fee with no usage caps.
If you're on Android, if you're tired of per-job pricing, or if you just want something that takes three minutes to set up rather than an afternoon, bram.chat is the ServiceM8 alternative worth trying.
No apps, no logins, no learning curve. bram.chat works entirely on WhatsApp — the app you already use every day.
