Solutions are organized both by cleaning type (Commercial Cleaning, Office & Contract, Domestic & End of Tenancy) and by functional need (Rota Software, Cleaner App, Client Portal & App, Payroll Software, Communication, Invoicing Software). The platform is offered in three tiers: Standard (core + HR), Pro (+ Finance), and Complete (+ Training & Compliance), with a 90-day free trial on everything.

Direct peers

• Housecall Pro: Housecall Pro is a field-service platform for home-service businesses that includes scheduling, dispatching, estimates, invoicing, and a customer portal. It competes with Xota for the same type of cleaning and home-services SMB customers, particularly in North America.
• Jobber: Jobber is a leading field-service management platform for home-service SMBs (cleaning, HVAC, landscaping, plumbing) with scheduling, quoting, invoicing, and a client hub. It is a direct competitor at the operations-platform layer with substantially more scale and capital.
• ZenMaid: ZenMaid is a vertical SaaS platform purpose-built for maid and residential cleaning businesses, offering scheduling, recurring booking templates, client communication, and invoicing. It is the closest US-headquartered direct peer to Xota's domestic-cleaning use case, with comparable SMB target customers and PLG-style positioning.
• Workiz: Workiz is a field-service management platform for home-services businesses with scheduling, dispatch, job management, and invoicing. It targets the same cleaning and home-services SMB segment as Xota with comparable PLG-style positioning.
• ServiceM8: ServiceM8 is a mobile-first job management platform for trades and field-service SMBs (including cleaning contractors), with scheduling, job cards, invoicing, and a client portal. It is a direct competitor in the field-service operations layer that Xota targets for commercial cleaning operators.
• Launch27: Launch27 provides an online booking, scheduling, and operations platform for cleaning, lawn care, and home-service businesses, including a branded client portal and recurring-booking workflows. It overlaps with Xota across both domestic and commercial cleaning verticals and a similar SMB customer profile.
• Sweeply: Sweeply is cleaning-company management software targeting commercial and contract cleaners with scheduling, route planning, and client communication features. It competes directly with Xota in the UK/EU contract-cleaning segment with comparable feature scope.
• Connecteam: Connecteam is an employee and operations app for deskless and field-based teams, offering scheduling, time tracking, checklists, and internal communication. It overlaps with Xota's HR & Attendance and mobile clock-in functionality for cleaning and facilities workforces.

Emerging players

• CleanGuru: CleanGuru is cleaning-company training and operations software focused on commercial cleaning workflows, certifications, and quality control. It is an emerging niche player intersecting Xota's compliance and operations roadmap, particularly the Training & Compliance module launching in 2026.

Broad incumbents

• ServiceTitan: ServiceTitan is a large, publicly-adjacent field-service management platform primarily serving trades (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) at mid-market scale. It is a broad incumbent whose scheduling, dispatch, and customer-experience capabilities pressure smaller vertical specialists like Xota to differentiate on cleaning-specific depth.
