E-signature and QuickBooks start at Pro, and estimate exports, supplements and automations at Scale; see pricing for the full breakdown.

Insurance Restoration

Insurance restoration: storm lead to signed scope

After a hail event you need to flag the affected leads, get measurements, build the scope for the adjuster, and collect a signature before another roofer does. Each of those steps lives on the same job record.

Workflow — Lead to Paid
1

Storm event flagged, leads texted

Flag a hail or wind event and every lead tied to it gets an automatic text (texting requires a connected SMS number), so a storm day turns into a booked-inspection list.

2

Inspection, then aerial measurement

Order a roof measurement from the lead card. Same-day delivery, reviewed by our team, as a PDF and in XML formats including Symbility XML.

3

Build the scope, hand it to the adjuster

The estimate fills in from the measurement. Export a Xactimate-formatted file or Symbility XML that you review before importing. For a native Xactimate estimate, submit an Xactimate Estimate Request and our team prepares it in licensed Xactimate.

4

E-sign and collect the deposit

Send the proposal, get the signature on the homeowner's phone and take the deposit by card or ACH, all from the same estimate.

Retail Residential

Retail residential: respond fast, quote the same day

Retail homeowners usually hire whoever answers first and sends a clear price. The workflow below is built around that: quick lead response, a measurement-backed estimate, and a proposal the homeowner can sign and pay on their phone.

Workflow — Click to Close
1

Lead captured from your website

The Instant Estimator takes a homeowner's address, gives a ballpark price, and drops the lead straight into your pipeline.

2

Order the measurement, build the estimate

The same-day aerial measurement fills your estimate template with squares, edge lengths and waste, so pricing is a review, not data entry.

3

Send a Good / Better / Best proposal

The homeowner gets a branded proposal with three priced options and a 3D roof view, and can sign online or on your phone.

4

Production, invoice, final payment

Schedule the crew, order materials, collect photos, then send the final invoice from the same job.

Key features for this solution
Instant Estimator — address-based ballpark quotes for your website (Scale and up)
Good / Better / Best — three priced options in one proposal
3D roof viewer — built from the measurement geometry (Scale and up)
E-signature and deposit — sign and pay in one step
Card and ACH payments — 3.2% + $0.29 card, 1% ACH (max $50), via Square
Automation recipes — appointment reminders, review requests and overdue-invoice nudges, off until you turn them on
QuickBooks sync — customers, invoices and payments
Siding & Exteriors

Siding and exteriors: every trade on one job

Exterior jobs often cover roofing, siding, gutters and windows on the same property. The estimate has a section per trade, so one job record carries the full scope. Measurements can include wall area as well as roof.

What makes this different for siding
1

Aerial wall and roof measurements

Order wall-area measurements for vinyl, fiber-cement or steel siding from an address, with no ladder or site visit just to get square footage.

2

Estimate sections by trade

Roofing, siding, gutters and windows each get their own section, with separate materials, waste and margin per trade and one combined total.

3

Material ordering from the job

Build a purchase order from the estimate with materials, quantities and the delivery address filled in. ABC Supply ordering is live; QXO ordering is in development.

Key features for siding contractors
Wall area measurement — aerial, from an address
Trade-grouped estimate sections — roofing, siding, gutters, windows
Siding templates — Hardie, vinyl and steel starting points you can edit
Material purchase orders — ABC Supply live, QXO in development
Geotagged photos — before and after, per job
Crew assignments per trade — roofing and siding crews on the same job
Warranty tracking — product and labor warranties
Multi-Crew & Commercial

Multi-crew and commercial: one view of every active job

With several crews and jobs running at once you need to see which crew is where, what has been ordered and who still owes you money. The scheduler, production board and financial reports answer those from live job data.

Visibility across all active jobs
1

Multi-crew scheduler

Assign jobs to crews on a calendar or Gantt view and see each crew's load before you book the next job.

2

Crew app on any phone

Crews check in, upload geotagged photos, complete checklists and mark milestones from a phone. See the crew app.

3

Job costing

Track labor, materials and overhead per job to see which jobs ran over and where margin went.

4

Reports dashboard

Revenue, pipeline, close rate and accounts receivable, calculated from your live job data.

Key features for growing operations
Multi-crew scheduler — calendar, Gantt, and production board
Crew app — photos, checklists and updates from the field
Job costing — margin per job
Role-based access — sales, admin, foreman and owner see what their role needs
Automations — triggers and actions across the pipeline
QuickBooks sync — customers, invoices and payments
AI assistant — ask questions about pipeline, AR and conversion
