Built to run and grow your pool & spa business.
The fundamentals — routing, water chemistry, work orders — engineered to run themselves. Plus an industry marketplace built to grow your route. AI that learns your customers and your crew— following up on every estimate, matching the right tech to every job, and capturing the revenue other pool software leaves on the table.
30-day free trial. No credit card required.
Three ways kicktide grows your business
Reshape your route, build density where you already drive, and run the whole operation on software that pays for itself.
Cash out, or trade up.
The book you built has real value. Sell a route — or part of one — at fair market value, on your timeline. Take the cash, or roll it into kicktide credit toward a route that fits you better.
How selling & trading worksBuild density where you already drive.
Grow at the pace you choose. Acquire established, recurring accounts filtered by zip, monthly revenue, and how tightly they cluster around the stops your trucks already run.
Browse the marketplaceMore margin. Less windshield time.
Tighter routes, automated water chemistry, and intelligent sales tools that close repair work for you. Earn more per stop and get your evenings back — the software pays for itself in saved drive time alone.

Every tool a pool & spa pro needs to run a tight route & close more jobs — not a generic field-service tool with pool features bolted on.
Smart routing your techs actually use.
Drag-and-drop scheduling, automatic route optimization, real-time tech GPS. Built around how pool techs actually plan their week, not borrowed from HVAC software.
- Optimize a day in one click, or hand-tune the order
- See drive time and route density before you accept new work
- Per-stop times that adapt to weather, recent storms, heat, and each tech's pace — not the static guesses competitors lock in
- Re-route on-the-fly when something goes sideways
Water chemistry, automated.
Auto-dosing calculations, LSI tracking, Orenda integration. Your tech captures readings in seconds and the platform flags bad reads before they become callbacks.
- Auto-dose chlorine, acid, salt, calcium hardness
- LSI-aware alerts for scale/corrosion risk
- Historical readings on every customer's record
Sales tools that actually close.
The competition stops at "send the estimate." kicktide follows up, tracks what works, collects deposits, and turns approved quotes into invoiced jobs in a click.
- Branded estimates with online approval + deposit collection
- Automated SMS & email follow-up on stale quotes
- Conversion analytics — see what closes vs. what stalls
- One-click estimate → work order → invoice
Work orders & checklists
Equipment-aware workflows, photo documentation, gate codes, customer history at the tap of a screen. Your techs can't miss a step.
Team & customer management
Tech scorecards, customer portal, on-the-way SMS, branded service reports. Your customers see exactly what got done.
Field-tested mobile app
Offline-capable. Built for the way pool techs actually work — gloves on, sun glare, spotty cell. Not an afterthought.
The only marketplace built for pool & spa routes.
Routes change hands constantly — retirements, relocations, operators consolidating territory. Most of it happens on Facebook with a handshake and zero protection. kicktide runs every deal through Stripe + Escrow.com, with verified listings and a flat fee.
