Clapo - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Clapo is a cloud-based pool maintenance management platform designed for pool service companies of any size, from solo operators to multi-technician teams, including seasonal staff. The solution covers the full operational workflow: on-site water readings and chemical dose calculations, route management, contract management, automated invoicing, and SEPA direct debit payment collection. Primarily targeting the French market, Clapo incorporates SEPA payment infrastructure, Factur-X structured electronic invoicing, and compliance with French anti-VAT-fraud law.

Clapo connects field operations to back-office administration through a single signed contract that drives scheduling, invoicing, and payment collection for the entire season, eliminating double data entry. Technicians use a native mobile app with full offline capability to log water parameters (pH, free chlorine, TAC, TH, stabilizer, salt), calculate chemical doses via the Langelier Saturation Index, capture owner signatures, and complete service records in approximately thirty seconds per visit using pre-filled readings and one-tap product logging. QR code labels on pool equipment open the correct service record and log technician arrival time automatically. Route optimization computes the shortest stop order from the technician's current GPS position or the company address, with kilometers saved displayed before confirmation. Per-vehicle stock tracking deducts products used during visits automatically and generates a restocking list.

On the back-office side, Clapo handles seasonal campaign planning for winterization and spring reopening, bulk invoice validation, Factur-X-format invoicing with continuous numbering and line-by-line VAT, FEC export for accountants, and a tamper-proof payment register. Rejected SEPA payments trigger automatic card payment links and follow-up reminders at D+7, D+15, and D+30. Customers access visit reports, invoices, quotes, and direct debit status through a password-free portal via QR code or link. A back-office dashboard gives managers visibility into each technician's day, pending tasks, revenue, unpaid invoices, and contract collection rate, accessible from both mobile and web.
