Free vs Pro: Which Remnant Finder Plan Is Right for Your Shop?

You’re running a stone fabrication business with spreadsheets, sticky notes, group texts, and a calculator. You’re losing money every single day — and you might not even realize it. A missed follow-up here, a forgotten quote there, a remnant that sat in your yard for six months because nobody knew it existed. It adds up to tens of thousands of dollars a year in lost revenue.

What if there was a single platform that handled everything — your inventory, your clients, your quotes, your drawings, your schedule, your invoices, your payments, and your analytics? Not a generic business tool retrofitted for stone. A platform built from the ground up for countertop fabricators.

That’s Remnant Finder. And you can try it free today.

There’s Nothing Else Like It — Seriously

Let’s address the elephant in the room. You’ve probably looked at other software options. Maybe you tried a generic CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot. Maybe you use QuickBooks for invoicing and a separate calendar app for scheduling. Maybe you bought a drawing tool that doesn’t talk to your quoting system.

Here’s the problem: none of those tools were built for stone fabrication.

Salesforce doesn’t know what a remnant is. HubSpot can’t draw a countertop layout with edge profiles and cutouts. Google Calendar can’t optimize your installation routes. And your quoting spreadsheet definitely can’t auto-calculate pricing based on material type, square footage, and edge profiles.

Remnant Finder is the only all-in-one platform that combines:

  • Remnant Marketplace — list and sell surplus material to a national audience
  • Full CRM — track every lead from first inquiry to completed installation
  • Countertop Drawing Tool — draw layouts with cutouts, edge profiles, backsplashes, and auto-pricing
  • Professional Quoting — generate branded PDF quotes in minutes, not hours
  • Invoicing & Payments — send invoices, accept payments, set up payment plans
  • Scheduling & Route Optimization — plan your team’s day and optimize driving routes
  • Time Clock — track employee hours with clock in/out and manager review
  • Client Portal — give clients a professional dashboard to view projects, approve quotes, and pay invoices
  • Analytics & Reports — sqft sales reports, financial dashboards, pipeline analytics
  • QuickBooks Integration — automatic two-way sync with your accounting software
  • AR Measurement — measure countertops with your phone camera using augmented reality
  • Offline Mode — keep working even without internet on job sites

All of this in one app that works on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and web browser. No other software on the market does this for the stone industry. Zero. We checked.

The Free Plan: Start Listing Remnants Today

Not ready to commit? No problem. Remnant Finder’s Free plan gives you real value from day one — no credit card required, no time limit, no catch.

With the Free plan, you get:

  • List your remnants on the marketplace — get your surplus material in front of buyers actively searching for affordable countertops
  • Search and discover — browse remnants from other fabricators, find materials for small projects at a fraction of the cost
  • Nearby search — find remnants and fabrication shops near your location
  • Company profile — set up your business profile so buyers and professionals can find you
  • Basic inventory management — catalog your pieces with photos, dimensions, and material details

The Free plan is perfect for fabricators who want to stop throwing money away. That pile of remnants in your yard? Each one is a potential sale. The average fabricator wastes 30% of each slab — and with remnants ranging from $20 to $75 per square foot, a yard full of 50 pieces could represent $10,000 to $50,000 in untapped revenue.

One fabricator listed 35 pieces in his first week and sold $12,000 worth of material in his first month. The Free plan made that possible.

The Pro Plan: Run Your Entire Business From One App

When you’re ready to transform your entire operation — not just your remnant yard — the Pro plan unlocks everything Remnant Finder has to offer. This is where the real magic happens.

What Pro Includes (Everything in Free, Plus:)

CRM & Client Management

Track every client, contact, and lead. See their full history — every quote sent, every invoice paid, every conversation. Use the Kanban board to visualize your sales pipeline: Lead → Design → Quoted → Approved → Production → Installation → Completed. Never lose a lead to a missed follow-up again. Automated follow-up reminders ensure every quote gets attention.

Countertop Drawing & Quoting

Draw countertop layouts directly on your phone or tablet. Add edge profiles, cutouts for sinks and cooktops, backsplashes, and waterfall edges. The system auto-calculates square footage and pricing based on your price library. Generate a professional branded PDF quote and send it to your client — all in under 10 minutes. What used to take 45 minutes with a calculator and a template now takes 5.

Project Management

Every project gets its own workspace with drawings, quotes, invoices, files, photos, notes, checklists, and activity history. Track the full lifecycle from initial measurement to final installation. Assign activities to team members, set deadlines, and monitor progress in real time.

Invoicing & Payment Plans

Generate professional invoices from your quotes with one tap. Send them to clients via email with a link to pay online. Set up payment plans — weekly, biweekly, or monthly installments — for bigger projects. Mark invoices as paid, track overdue payments, and sync everything to QuickBooks automatically.

Scheduling, Calendar & Route Optimization

See all your team’s measurements, fabrications, installations, and deliveries in one visual calendar. Drag and drop to reschedule. Plan daily routes with automatic optimization — less driving, more installing. Job checklists ensure quality on every activity. Before/after photo documentation is linked directly to the project.

Time Clock & Team Management

Your team clocks in and out from the app. You review and approve time entries from a dedicated screen. Get notified when someone clocks in late or misses a clock-out. Assign roles (Owner, Admin, Member) with granular permissions — control who sees financial data, who can edit quotes, and who can delete records.

Analytics & Reporting

The new Sqft Sales Report shows your sales performance by square footage — the metric that reveals your true operational efficiency. Financial dashboards track revenue, costs, and profit margins. Pipeline analytics show your conversion rates from lead to close. Productivity reports tell you how many hours each job type actually takes.

Client Portal

Give your clients a branded, professional portal where they can view their projects, approve or reject quotes, see invoices, make payments, upload files, and send you messages. It’s like giving every client their own dashboard — and it makes your business look incredibly professional.

QuickBooks Integration

Clients sync as customers. Suppliers sync as vendors. Quotes sync as estimates. Invoices sync as invoices. Payments reconcile automatically. No double entry. No copy-paste errors. Your books stay clean without extra work.

Pro Pricing — Built for Teams of Any Size

Plan Team Size Price Per User
Pro 1 1 user $79.99/month $79.99
Pro 3 Up to 3 users $239.99/month ~$80/user
Pro 5 Up to 5 users $399.99/month ~$80/user
Pro 10 Up to 10 users $799.99/month ~$80/user

Think about what you’re currently paying for separate tools. A CRM is $50-150/user/month. Quoting software is $30-100/month. Scheduling tools are $20-50/user/month. Invoicing is $15-40/month. A marketplace listing is $50-200/month. Add them up and you’re looking at $200-500+ per month for a patchwork of tools that don’t talk to each other.

Remnant Finder replaces all of them for $79.99/month. And everything is connected — your quotes feed into your invoices, your schedule links to your projects, your time clock informs your cost tracking, your inventory syncs with your marketplace listing.

The Real ROI: Numbers That Matter

Let’s do the math on what Remnant Finder actually saves a typical fabrication shop:

  • Remnant sales: $3,000-12,000/month — material that was collecting dust, now generating revenue
  • Time saved on quoting: 5-10 hours/week — at $50/hour, that’s $1,000-2,000/month in recovered productivity
  • Fewer missed follow-ups: 2-3 extra closed deals/month — at $3,000-5,000 average ticket, that’s $6,000-15,000/month
  • Reduced payroll errors: $400-3,000/month — accurate time tracking eliminates overpayment
  • Fuel savings from route optimization: $200-500/month — less driving, more efficient daily routes
  • Eliminated software costs: $150-400/month — replace 3-5 separate tools with one

Conservative total: $10,000+ per month in combined value for a $79.99 investment. That’s a 125:1 return on investment.

And we haven’t even counted the intangible benefits: looking more professional to clients, reducing stress from disorganized operations, and having real data to make business decisions instead of guessing.

Why Fabricators Who Don’t Go Digital Are Falling Behind

The stone countertop industry is changing fast. Homeowners research online before visiting a showroom — 62% of them, according to recent surveys. Contractors expect professional quotes delivered quickly, not hand-drawn sketches faxed three days later. Property managers want client portals and online payments, not phone tag and paper checks.

Your competitors are going digital. The shops that adopt technology are winning the best projects, closing deals faster, and running more efficiently. The shops that stick with “the way we’ve always done it” are losing clients to fabricators who send branded quotes in 10 minutes instead of 3 days.

This isn’t about being tech-savvy. It’s about being competitive. And Remnant Finder makes the transition painless — it’s designed for fabricators, not IT professionals. If you can use a smartphone, you can run your business on Remnant Finder.
