ImportFix vs PriceTuneup
The short version: choose ImportFix when you need to inspect what changed in a file before re-import. Choose PriceTuneup when you need to analyze margins and decide what your prices should be.
| Question | ImportFix | PriceTuneup |
|---|---|---|
| What changed between two files? | Core use case | Not the primary positioning |
| Is my CSV/XLSX structurally safe to review before import? | Core use case | Supports HCP CSV workflows, but focuses on pricing |
| Which prices are below my target margin? | Not a pricing recommendation engine | Core use case |
| What should I charge? | Does not decide prices for you | Pricing calculators and margin tuning |
| Does the file stay local during analysis? | Yes, browser-local analysis | PriceTuneup states its tools parse files in the browser |
| Current public pricing | Free audit/preview, $29 or $49 corrected download | $299/year app, $249 rebuild as listed Sep. 9, 2026 |
ImportFix is a QA and change-review tool
ImportFix is deliberately conservative. It looks for supported structural issues and risky changes, and it can compare an untouched Housecall Pro export with an edited version. It does not invent a missing category, identifier or price, and it does not tell you what your target margin should be.
PriceTuneup is a pricing and margin tool
PriceTuneup publicly positions itself around margin leaks, flat-rate pricing, parts markup and rebuilding an HCP price book at a target margin. That is a broader pricing problem than ImportFix is designed to solve.
They can fit different stages of the same workflow
A contractor could use a pricing tool to decide what values should change, then use a separate QA step to review the resulting file before re-import. The products are not interchangeable just because both work with Housecall Pro price-book exports.
Choose based on the question you are asking
- "What should these services cost?" A pricing or margin tool is the better fit.
- "What changed in this edited file?" ImportFix is built for that.
- "Did a column, category or identifier disappear?" ImportFix is built for that review.
- "Which items are underpriced?" PriceTuneup is closer to that use case.
