Head to head
PestOS vs. Slingshot
Slingshot is built for the companies you compete against, not for you.
Facts below are from Slingshot's own site (getslingshot.com), July 2026.
What Slingshot is good at
It's the incumbent. Real pest-trained human agents, owned by WorkWave, integrated with PestPac, FieldRoutes, Briostack and more, with over 1,000 pest professionals on it. For a 20-truck operation, it's the safe institutional choice.
Where PestOS wins
Slingshot wasn't built for you. Pricing is quote-based and per-minute, unpublished, and structured for call volume a solo operator doesn't have. Setup runs two to three weeks by their own FAQ. And you're trusting your name to a rotating pool of agents reading a script about your company, at human labor prices, around the clock. We're flat-priced, built for the one-truck and two-truck shop, live in days, and the agent never has a shift change.
The fine print, from their own site
- A WorkWave brand, acquired May 2021. Human agents plus AI tooling.
- Integrations: PestPac, FieldRoutes, Briostack, ServSuite, Voice for Pest, and more.
- Their own claim: 1,000-plus pest control professionals, average 3x conversion boost.
- Their FAQ lists average setup at two to three weeks.
- Pricing is quote-based: they publish named per-minute tiers but no dollar figures, so you request a quote.
