Operator — $299/mo · 3%

Production outsourced to a wash partner; your job is pickup, delivery, and customers. Kalia included free.

Why this exists

Software born on the route, not in a pitch deck.

Tama Laundry started with a phone, a car, and a lot of driveways. The software to run it didn’t exist at a fair price — so it got built, order by order, in the gaps between pickups. Today it runs Honolulu’s #1-ranked laundry delivery service, and part of every week’s wash goes free to unhoused neighbors.

Tama OS is that same software, opened up — priced the way I wished someone had priced it for me: free until you’re earning, every feature at every tier, no hardware, no module maze.

Straight answers

FAQ

Is the free tier really free forever?

Yes. $0/month, no time limit. The platform takes 6% of sales — zero sales, zero owed.

How do my customers get an app on day one?

Through Folded, our universal laundry app — your customer's address resolves to your business and it's your brand from the first screen. Your own dedicated App Store listing is available when you're ready: $300 setup + $49/mo maintenance + your $99/yr Apple account.

I'm on Cents or CleanCloud. How hard is switching?

We migrate your customers, plans, and history for free during your 60-day trial. Run both side by side and let the math decide.

Is this actually used in production?

Every day. Tama OS runs Tama Laundry in Honolulu — real bookings, real drivers, real payments, an AI answering real customers.
