LeakClock vs RefRanger

RefRanger is a capable cloud refrigerant-compliance platform — inventory, leaks, reclamations, technician certifications, EPA 608 and AIM Act reporting, aimed at mid-sized HVAC and refrigeration contractors. It's a real compliance tool. The difference for a small shop comes down to pricing model and focus: RefRanger is typically priced per user and built for the mid-market; LeakClock is a flat $19/month built for the 12-truck shop.

Where RefRanger wins

If you're a growing mid-sized contractor that wants deeper technician-certification management and dashboards tuned for a larger operation, RefRanger is built for that stage. As a crew and location count grow, its broader feature set may fit better than a deliberately simple tool.

Where LeakClock wins

Flat price, any crew

$19/mo for the whole shop. Per-user pricing punishes you for adding techs; LeakClock doesn't.

Small-shop simple

Purpose-built for the AIM Act 15-lb rule and nothing you don't need — the fastest path from "in scope" to "audit-ready".

Offline-first field app

Scan the tag, weigh the cylinder — works with no signal in a walk-in or on a roof. The math and clock happen automatically.
