Roofr is a roofing proposal tool that charges $13–$19 per measurement report, $49/mo extra for texting, and ships no native iOS or Android app. QuoteIQ includes unlimited measurements, communication, AI tools, and 50+ industry support from $29.99/mo.
Roofr (Y Combinator 2017, now subsidiary of QXO/Brad Jacobs’ building products company) is genuinely strong in one area: roofing-specific satellite measurement reports with material breakdowns, supplier integrations (ABC Supply, SRS Distribution), and a signed-proposal-to-material-order pipeline. For a roofing sales team focused on the measurement-to-proposal workflow, these are real differentiators.
But the costs add up fast. Every measurement report costs $13–$19 on top of your subscription — an active roofer quoting 20 jobs/month pays $260–$380 just in reports. Texting is a paid add-on. There is no native iOS or Android app — Roofr runs in a browser, with a progressive web app added in 2026. No employee management, GPS tracking, time tracking, route optimization, AI assistant, AI phone answering, or AI text generation at any price. Branded proposals, e-signatures, calendar, and self-quoting sit on the paid tiers — check their pricing page for current plan names and rates. To match QuoteIQ’s functionality, Roofr users need 5–7 additional subscriptions totaling $694–$1,468+/mo.
These aren’t edge cases — they’re Roofr’s core pricing model and the #1 complaint from verified reviewers.
Every satellite measurement report costs $13 (paid plans) or $19 (free plan). Quote 20 jobs/month = $260–$380 in report fees alone — on top of your subscription.
Roofr has no native iOS or Android app — it runs in a browser, with a progressive web app added in 2026. A recurring complaint across Capterra, GetApp, and Software Advice reviews.
No AI estimating from photos, no AI phone answering, no AI text generation, no natural language CRM control on any plan — Roofr’s AI sits inside measurement tooling only.
Roofr’s subscription is just the starting point. Reports, texting, and missing features compound fast.
Roofr’s Pay-As-You-Go plan costs $0/month but charges $19 per measurement report and $5 per material calculation — on the slower estimated-delivery queue. Quote 20 roofs: $480/month before a single subscription dollar. QuoteIQ Essentials at $29.99/mo includes unlimited estimates, invoicing, scheduling, and AI features.
From verified Capterra, GetApp, and Software Advice reviews.
QuoteIQ’s mobile app is rated 4.7★ on the App Store (2,900+ reviews) and 4.7★ on Google Play (1,109+ reviews) — built by contractors who used it in the field themselves. Quote jobs from the driveway, invoice from the truck, track crews from anywhere. No browser workarounds needed.
Roofr needs 5–7 third-party subscriptions to approximate QuoteIQ’s functionality.
Roofr subscription + per-report fees + required third-party tools. Based on 20 reports/month.
Roofr has strong roofing proposals. QuoteIQ has everything else — plus proposals.

Not hidden behind a higher tier. Not available as a paid add-on. Simply not available in Roofr at all.
Roofr has built genuinely impressive roofing-specific capabilities in the measurement-to-proposal pipeline.
Roofr’s core product: professional satellite roof measurements with squares, pitch, edges, and material breakdowns in a multi-page report. More detailed than MapMeasure Pro for roof-specific calculations like pitch and material waste.
Native integrations with ABC Supply, SRS Distribution/Roof Hub, and QXO for real-time pricing, availability checking, and one-click material ordering directly from proposals. QuoteIQ doesn’t have roofing supplier connections.
Unique workflow: signed proposal automatically converts to a material order with your supplier. This end-to-end roofing production pipeline is a genuine competitive advantage.
Roofr offers a permanent free tier (Pay-As-You-Go) — useful for very occasional use. Trial proposals are capped and reports still bill at $19 each, but it’s a genuine free starting point.
VC-funded and now a subsidiary of QXO (Brad Jacobs’ building products company). Enterprise resources, roofing industry relationships, and integration with the QXO distribution network.
QuoteIQ includes unlimited property measurements, full CRM, AI tools, and 50+ industry support — from $29.99/mo with no per-use fees.
