Built for how your business
actually runs.
Every business needs a different combination of modules. Find yours below, see exactly which modules fit, and what running it on Encarmo looks like.
Nine industries. Different needs, same product.
Agencies & consultants
From pitch to payroll in one tab. Lead capture, project invoicing, team leave, and monthly payroll — all from the same client record.
Construction & trades
Progress billing with retention tracking, materials from inventory, crew scheduling, weekly contractor and employee payroll.
E-commerce & retail
Orders sync from Shopify and Amazon, stock auto-decrements, COGS posts to the ledger live. Repeat buyers flagged automatically.
Restaurants & cafés
Ingredient stock with expiry alerts, shift scheduling, tipped-employee payroll, daily cash reconciliation in one back office.
Clinics & wellness
Patient books online, gets reminded, gets invoiced post-visit — zero manual entry. Staff schedules and payroll on the same system.
Logistics & trucking
Dispatch from the scheduler, raise freight invoices, advance on outstanding loads, run multi-state driver payroll.
Freelancers & solos
Unlimited invoices, a real pipeline, your own books — all free, forever. Add modules only the day you genuinely outgrow the basics.
Property & real estate
Recurring rent invoices, maintenance scheduling, owner statements that reconcile themselves. Multi-property, multi-currency.
Small manufacturers
Bill of materials links inventory to production, cost accounting flows to the ledger automatically, shop-floor payroll on the same system.
Three industries, workflow by workflow.
Pitch to payroll, one tab.
An inbound lead becomes a quote, becomes a project, becomes payroll — without re-entering a single field.
$2,880/yr savedFull setup
Orders, stock, books.
A Shopify sale triggers stock decrement and ledger posting in the same instant — no nightly batch jobs.
$3,140/yr savedFull setup
Appointment to paycheck.
The booking is the invoice trigger. The invoice is the revenue line. Nobody touches a spreadsheet.

Different names, same shape.
Nine industries cluster into four recurring needs. If your business doesn't match the list above exactly, find the pattern it resembles.
Sell, then service
A lead becomes a client, then a recurring invoice relationship. CRM and Invoicing are the backbone; everything else is secondary.
Move physical goods
Stock in, stock out, cost of goods sold. Inventory and Accounting need to be tightly linked or your margins are guesses.
Book, then bill
An appointment is the start of the revenue cycle. Scheduling drives everything downstream, including how staff get paid.
Crew on the move
Distributed labor, project-based billing, and often a cashflow gap waiting to be financed against unpaid invoices.
One quote per industry. Same product underneath.
“From lead to invoice to payroll, one client record. We dropped HubSpot and Gusto the same week.”
“Progress billing with retention, finally simple. Materials tracking alone justified the switch.”
“COGS posts itself the moment we sell. No more month-end surprises on margin.”
“Booking to invoice, zero double-entry. Calendly plus billing for $9 changed our admin load completely.”
Common questions about finding your fit.
Don't see your exact industry? These nine cover the most common patterns, but Encarmo works for any business that needs some combination of accounting, invoicing, HR, payroll, inventory, CRM, scheduling, or capital. Talk to our team →
What if my business doesn't match any of these nine exactly?
That's normal — these are illustrative patterns, not rigid categories. Most businesses are a blend. A coaching business might use the agency setup. A small brewery might mix restaurant and manufacturing patterns. Pick whichever is closest and adjust modules from there — every combination is supported.
Can I start with one industry's setup and change later?
Yes. The “industry setups” are just recommended starting points, not locked configurations. Add or drop any module anytime, regardless of which industry page you started from. The product doesn't care what vertical you picked.
Are there industries Encarmo doesn't support well?
Encarmo is built for SMBs under roughly 200 employees that don't need a dedicated ERP implementation. Highly regulated industries with specialized compliance (heavy manufacturing with strict ISO traceability, healthcare requiring HIPAA-specific EHR integration) may need add-on tools alongside Encarmo. We're honest about this in sales conversations.
Do industry-specific setups cost more?
No. Pricing is purely about which modules you use, not which industry you're in. A 5-module construction setup costs exactly the same as any other business using the same 5 modules. There's no industry surcharge.
How were these module combinations decided?
From real customer usage data across thousands of Encarmo accounts, segmented by self-reported industry. These aren't guesses — they're the modules each industry actually activates most often in practice.
