WHY THIS EXISTS
A quote can cover wages and still miss your profit target.
A cleaning price is more than the cleaner's wage plus supplies. Payroll burden, travel, overhead, contingency and the profit target all affect whether the job works for the business.
Kernovia brings those assumptions into the pricing decision before the quote goes to the customer.

Illustration only. Your results depend on the assumptions and job data you enter.THE KERNOVIA DIFFERENCE
From estimate to review—not just a number.
A defined before-and-after workflow connects the quote you plan with the job you actually perform.
Establish your pricing floor
See the minimum acceptable price before agreeing to the quote.
Check profitability
Review recommended price, projected profit, margin and revenue per labor hour.
Create the client quote
Turn the internal pricing decision into a customer-facing quote.
Record actual results
Enter what actually happened after the work is completed.
Compare & improve
Compare estimated vs. actual performance and use the result on future work.
WHY KERNOVIA
More than “What should I charge?”
Basic pricing calculators vary widely. Kernovia's distinction is the way pricing and post-job review are connected in one workflow.
A BASIC PRICE-CALCULATION FLOW
Get to a price
Enter job details → calculate a price → use the number.
- Useful for quick estimating
- Feature depth varies by product
- May stop once the quote is calculated
THE KERNOVIA WORKFLOW
Understand the job economics
Costs → pricing floor → recommended quote → projected profitability → client quote → actual job result → estimate-vs-actual review.
- Real business-cost inputs
- Pricing-floor protection and profitability analysis
- Client-ready quote
- Actual Job Review and dashboard
Features vary among competing products. This section describes workflow differences, not a claim that every competing calculator lacks any particular feature.
SEE THE PRODUCT
Proof, not promises.
These are the actual product images prepared for Kernovia Cleaning Calculator v1.3.3.
01 · BUILD THE QUOTE
Bring the job details into one quote workspace.
Use the quote-building workflow to enter the information that drives the estimate instead of relying on a single hourly rate or a generic market number.
02 · MAKE THE PROFITABILITY DECISION
See whether the proposed quote meets your economics.
Review the pricing floor, recommended quote, projected profit and margin, revenue per labor hour, and profitability warnings before you commit to the price.
03 · PRESENT THE CUSTOMER QUOTE
Move from internal analysis to a customer-ready quote.
The pricing decision feeds a customer-facing quote so the workflow doesn't end with an internal calculation.
04 · REVIEW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED
Use completed-job results to improve future pricing.
Actual Job Review and the Profitability Dashboard help compare estimated and actual performance and make recurring pricing misses easier to see.

FAQ
Before you buy.

Yes. The workflow includes a customer-facing quote in addition to the internal pricing and profitability analysis.
Can I review a job after it is completed?
Yes. Actual Job Review is designed to compare completed-job inputs and results with the original estimate, with dashboard-level review available as part of the workflow.
Do I need Microsoft Excel?
Yes. v1.3.3 is built and validated for modern Microsoft Excel desktop. Google Sheets and mobile editing are outside the supported environment.
