The last price shown vs a printed one

Workiz Standard was ~$229/mo on annual billing (rate last recorded in 2025), with the first 3–5 users included, before Workiz hid its prices in May 20263, extra users $55* until Aug 20264.

Four AI tools against three

Workiz runs the most AI products of the five: the Genius suite. Its answering service ("Jessica") and phone have no published price — the figures here are third-party estimates5. Genius Scheduling, which Workiz also calls AI Dispatcher, is on Pro and up.

When Workiz is the better pick

We built BizBaby, so read this part twice. These are the cases where Workiz is the stronger choice today.

01 · ON CALL

You run an on-demand trade

Locksmiths, garage door, appliance and HVAC shops are who Workiz is built for — with Genius Scheduling, an AI dispatcher, on Pro. BizBaby has no AI dispatch yet.

02 · ROUTES & STOCK

You need route planning and inventory

Workiz has route planning7 and inventory on Ultimate. BizBaby doesn't have route optimization or inventory yet.

03 · MORE AI

You want the most AI products

Four Genius products — Answering, Leads, Scheduling, Marketing — against BizBaby's three. Ask Workiz for the price; none is published.

Methodology

How we call a race

We don't rate software — we price it, one feature at a time, with the same test on both sides, and we show where we lose.

BizBaby wins / Workiz wins: only that side has the feature, or it includes it on a lower plan or at a lower published price.
Tie: both have it on a similar plan and price — or our sources don't settle it. Neither: neither side offers it, as far as we found.
Sources and how we priced a team

Workiz. Pricing page (quote only, read Oct 24, 2026)1; last public plan prices captured by PricingSaaS, May 2026, and annual rates last recorded Jul 20253; extra-user prices captured Mar 2026 and removed Aug 24, 20264; free Lite plan removal6; client portal and route planning pages7.

Third-party reports (marked *). Genius Answering and Genius Phone prices: ToolEdUp5. Workiz's plan and user prices are the last ones it published, not today's.

BizBaby. Our own pricing page and plan catalogue: Essential $0, Premium $59, Growth $89; extra users $10 / $15 / $25; AI receptionist about $0.11 a minute2. GPS tracking (worker location history, Growth) and job costing (Price Book item costs, every plan) are in BizBaby; route optimization, inventory and AI dispatch are not.

A call. 3 minutes, one conversation. Workiz answering is a flat monthly add-on, so 100 and 300 calls cost the same.

Ratings. Capterra and G2, read Oct 24, 20268. BizBaby is new and has no public rating yet — we don't show one.
