FieldCosts review
A focused expense-costing tool with mobile receipt OCR and QuickBooks-ready exports.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
FieldCosts is job-costing software for small field-service businesses, including cleaning and janitorial teams. It focuses on recording job expenses rather than providing a broad labor-costing system. Teams can capture receipts through mobile apps, assign expenses by job, category, and worker, and manage approvals, rejections, and reimbursements. Owners, office staff, and field workers can receive role-based access across web, iOS, and Android.
The published Founding Customer Plan costs $59 per month after a 30-day free trial. It includes all current web and mobile features, guided founder onboarding, direct support, data exports for accounting workflows, cancellation at any time, and read-only access after cancellation. Core capabilities cover receipt capture with OCR and automated extraction, job and assignment management, invoice generation and status tracking, and reporting for estimated gross profit and margin. The plan is a straightforward fit for businesses that want one paid tier centered on expense visibility.
FieldCosts connects with QuickBooks through QuickBooks-ready CSV exports, so accounting workflows can receive exported data, while direct live synchronization is not currently available. Its reporting compares recorded revenue with approved job expenses to estimate profitability, making it useful for teams that need material and other job-expense tracking in one place. The narrower scope matters: businesses that need labor-cost tracking should choose an alternative with that capability. Field-service teams prioritizing receipt capture, expense approvals, reimbursements, and expense-based job profitability are the clearest fit.
