What a completed job actually costs you
| Job size | Free tier | Pro tier |
|---|---|---|
| $5,000 bathroom refresh | $400 | $200 + $79 sub |
| $30,000 kitchen renovation | $2,400 | $1,200 + $79 sub |
| $80,000 full-house renovation | $6,400 | $3,200 + $79 sub |
For context: industry take rates are Airbnb ~14%, Upwork ~10%, Hipages effective take on won work ~6–8% before you spend on lost leads. Arbrik's free tier already matches Hipages' effective floor — with no per-lead spend.
Why we don't sell lead credits
You don't pay for a lead that ghosts, misprices, or was never serious. Credits burn either way; we only win when you win.
Because we don't maximise lead-purchase volume, homeowners don't get five phone calls in ten minutes. They get the tradies they actually asked for.
We only make money after a milestone is delivered and the homeowner releases escrow. Everything we build — AI Quote Analyzer, WMPs, salvage marketplace, embodied carbon — is designed to help projects actually complete.
8% and 4% — that's it. No surge pricing, no featured slots, no ad auctions. You'll see the fee on every escrow release before it's deducted.
Homeowners: always free
There's no cost to post a project, receive quotes, run the AI Quote Analyzer, generate your council waste-management plan, or fund escrow. Everything on your side of Arbrik is free — the tradie's platform fee covers the whole product.
Existing credit balances remain honoured until Sprint 9a.2 cutover.
