Chemistry is dialed, but payments still run through a partner processor.
Pooly payments are native. One rate to one platform, T+1 funding, auto pay in the onboarding flow.
For Pool Brain switchers
The Pool Brain alternative that runs the whole business.
Pool Brain went deep on water chemistry and earned its users. Pooly covers the chemistry and then keeps going: native payments, AI routing, quoting tiers, and a construction module. One platform instead of chemistry plus everything else.
LSI
auto calc + AI dosing on every visit
Native
payment rails, not a processor referral
30 days
free trial with full data import

construction module Pool Brain does not have
Why operators outgrow Pool Brain
No consumer financing means heaters and renovations stall at the quote.
Pooly is building financing directly into the quote and portal, one flow, no handoff.
Routing is manual while the rest of the stack is smart.
Pooly routing is AI assisted: recommended sequencing, capacity balancing, drag to reassign.
Chemistry covered, plus the rest
AI chemistry + LSI auto calc
Readings in, dosing out. Trend flags before callbacks happen.
AI-assisted routing
Recommended stop sequence by drive time and service load.
Native payments + auto pay

Questions operators ask
Is Pooly chemistry as deep as Pool Brain?
Pool Brain is deeper on chemistry science today. Pooly ships LSI auto calc, AI dosing recommendations, and trend analysis, which covers what most operators use daily. If lab-grade chemistry reporting is your differentiator, Pool Brain earns its seat.
Can Pooly import my Pool Brain data?
Yes. Customers, routes, service history, and chemical readings come over during the 30 day free trial, so you keep continuity on active routes.
What does Pooly have that Pool Brain does not?
Native payment rails instead of a partner processor, Good / Better / Best quote tiers, a construction Projects module with milestone draw billing, and consumer financing in the quote on the near-term roadmap.
How long does switching take?
Most operators are set up in the first week of the 30 day trial. Run Pool Brain and Pooly in parallel for the rest of the month and decide with real route data.
Does Pooly have a mobile app?
Pooly is web first during beta and works on a phone browser in the field. A native AI-first mobile app is in active development.
