ShopBoard Professional

Questions about plans and paying.
Do you charge per user or per cell?
No. Each plan is one flat price with limits. Free: 1 department, 2 cells, 1 user. Starter: 3 departments, 10 cells and 5 users. Professional: unlimited departments, cells and users.
Can we pay yearly?
Yes, and yearly billing takes 20% off. Starter is $159 a month, billed $1,908 a year. Professional is $399 a month, billed $4,788 a year. Switch between monthly and yearly on the billing page.
How long does setup take?
Your first login opens a sample board, and setting up your own cell takes about 10 minutes: name it, set the shift times and takt. Plan on a day or two to set up a whole department with targets and imported history. No IT department required.
What happens when we outgrow Free?
Free doesn't expire. Starter is $199 a month for 3 departments, 10 cells and 5 users. Professional is $499 a month for unlimited departments, cells and users, plus the AI Lean Coach. Upgrade from the billing page. Your boards and history carry over.
What does Enterprise add?
Everything in Professional, plus guided setup and training for your team, your ERP or spreadsheet exports mapped to ShopBoard imports, each plant set up with you, and priority support from the founder. It starts at $999 a month. Email us to set it up.
Does ShopBoard integrate with our ERP?
There is no live ERP connector yet. Every plan includes CSV import for cells, SQDC history, hour-by-hour, issues, parts and your team: export from your ERP or spreadsheet, match our column headers, and load it. On Enterprise, we map your exports to ShopBoard imports with you.
Where does our data live, and who can see it?
On Supabase servers in the US, on a paid plan with daily backups. Only people you add to your account can see your boards. We don't sell your data or use it for ads. Email us any time for a copy, or to have it deleted.
Can we cancel? What about refunds?
Yes. An admin cancels from the billing page. If ShopBoard isn't working for you, email us within 30 days of your first payment and we refund that payment in full. No partial refunds after that.
Who answers support?
Email hello@shopboard.live and the founder answers, usually within one business day. Professional gets a same-day reply. The founder's own 150-person machining and assembly plant runs ShopBoard every morning.
Not sure which plan fits?
Email the founder. You'll get a straight answer about which plan fits your floor, including when Free is enough.
