Simplify Jobs

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Skimmer raised $74 million from Mainsail in October 2024, funding product acceleration.
  • July 2026 direct ordering removes purchase friction and ties procurement to jobs.
  • June 2026 AI Insights and alerts increase office stickiness, reducing churn and manual work.

What critics are saying

  • Heritage integration deepens dependence on one distributor; a channel dispute hurts product flows quickly.
  • Niche pool-service TAM caps expansion unless Skimmer wins adjacent trades by 2027.
  • Enterprise workflow complexity raises support burdens; product failures directly hit invoicing, routing, and trust.

What makes Skimmer unique

  • Skimmer owns pool-service workflows, not generic FSM, across 35,000 professionals and 1,000,000+ pools.
  • June–July 2026 releases embedded quotes, alerts, AI Insights, and Heritage ordering.
  • Hal Denbar joined January 2026, bringing operator credibility from Patriot Pool and NPP.

Skimmer and Heritage Pool Supply launch direct ordering.

Skimmer and Heritage Pool Supply launch direct ordering. July 21, 2026 Skimmer and Heritage Pool Supply launch direct ordering, expanding their strategic partnership. Pool professionals can now manage their entire purchasing workflow, from quote to order, without leaving Skimmer. Austin, TX - July 21, 2026 - Skimmer, America's leading pool service platform, and Heritage Pool Supply Group today announced the next phase of their strategic partnership: direct ordering for pool service professionals inside Skimmer. For pool professionals, the job doesn't end at the equipment pad. Sourcing parts, pricing out repairs, and tracking orders across multiple systems takes time that could be spent serving customers. This integration changes that. Pool and spa professionals can now move from a customer's approved quote to a placed Heritage order without leaving Skimmer, keeping purchasing tied to the work it supports and cutting out the back-and-forth between disconnected systems. The result is a faster path from diagnosis to repair. Quotes go out with live Heritage pricing, so professionals protect their margins without guessing on cost. Orders connect to the right job, so billing stays accurate and nothing falls through the cracks. And with order status visible in one place, there's no more chasing down whether a part has shipped or is ready for pickup. "When we launched our partnership with Heritage, we said it was just the beginning," said Jack Nelson, CEO at Skimmer. "Pool and spa professionals can now move from a customer's approved quote to a placed Heritage order without leaving the platform, which means less time on administrative tasks and more time actually running their business." "At Heritage, everything we do is focused on helping our customers succeed," said Scott Frost, President of Heritage Pool Supply Group. "By bringing live inventory, ordering, and job workflows together in one place, we're helping our shared customers spend less time managing purchases and more time serving their own customers." This launch delivers on the roadmap the two companies outlined when their partnership was first announced. By combining Heritage's distribution footprint - more than 160 locations across 36 states - with Skimmer's purpose-built software for pool service operations, the partnership continues to reduce the manual work of running a service business. About Skimmer Skimmer is America's #1 pool service platform. The company is on a mission to modernize the pool and spa service and repair industry through easy-to-use software and best-in-class support. Over 35,000 pool service professionals servicing 1,000,000+ pools in North America use Skimmer to get organized, get paid faster, and grow their businesses. About Heritage Pool Supply Group Heritage Pool Supply Group has grown to become one of the largest and fastest-growing pool supply distributors in the United States. Since its inception in 2021, Heritage has established a differentiated growth strategy and entrepreneurial culture focused on serving customers, partnering with suppliers, and attracting the industry's best talent. Heritage currently operates under a family of distinct local brands encompassing more than 170 locations across 37 states.
