When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,092/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it billing, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most family mediators in Boise patch together HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Calendly, QuickBooks and similar apps. That's $1,092/year on recurring software. Over 5 years at today's prices, those subscriptions total $5,460.
Nexa means you stop renting software. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one system. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No duplicate data entry. No Zapier. No add-on costs. It's a pay once — save money from day one. For family mediators in Boise weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
You walk into a room with two people who used to share a life and now can't agree on a pickup time. The morning's first session is a couple working out a holiday parenting schedule, and your whole job is to keep them talking to the issue instead of the last fifteen years. You shuttle between joint conversation and private caucuses, carrying offers back and forth, reframing 'he always' into 'going forward.' You're watching the clock because both parties are paying by the hour and neither wants to feel they're funding the other's stalling. Midday you draft the memorandum of understanding from this morning's breakthrough on the house, careful to use their words, because if the document doesn't match what they felt they agreed to, the whole fragile deal collapses. Afternoon is intake for a new couple, where you screen for whether mediation is even appropriate and make crystal clear you represent neither of them. The neutrality is the product: the moment one party suspects you're texting the other separately, or billing them unevenly, your usefulness is gone. By the end of the day you've absorbed a great deal of other people's grief and anger, and you still have to send a balanced summary email to two inboxes that will read it very differently.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a family mediator's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a family mediator — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
