Owners who opened on time.
Or close enough to count.

Our contractor went dark for 11 days during the shampoo bowl rough-in. Suite flagged the delay on day 3 and auto-rescheduled the tile crew. We opened 6 days late instead of 6 weeks.

I'm running 4 spa remodels across TX and FL simultaneously. Before Suite I was living in a spreadsheet hell. Now I catch permit conflicts 3 weeks before they become emergencies.

We're rolling out 12 identical treatment rooms in 8 states. Suite's template system means we configure once and clone. The Kaemark chair lead time alone has saved us $80K in carrying costs.

The permit tracker alone is worth the subscription. I used to call three different agencies every week. Now it just shows me what's pending and how long it typically takes in my county.
