QuoteIQ’s AI Estimator is a photo-based estimating tool built into the QuoteIQ CRM. Describe a job in plain language, upload property photos, answer 5 AI-generated questions, and receive a detailed estimate with confidence-scored line items and local market pricing — all in under 30 seconds.
AI Estimator is included on every QuoteIQ plan — Essentials ($29.99/mo), Beginner ($74.99/mo), Pro ($149.99/mo), Elite ($299/mo), and Max ($699/mo). It uses IQ Credits, which are included with every QuoteIQ plan. No separate add-on purchase required.
QuoteIQ’s AI Estimator uses local market data — not national averages. When you provide the property address and job details, pricing is calibrated to what contractors in your geographic area actually charge for similar services.
Yes. Every AI-generated estimate in QuoteIQ is fully editable. Swipe to delete any line item, tap the price to change it, or add suggested add-ons with one tap. The AI gives you a starting point — you have full control over the final estimate you send to your customer.
After you describe the job in QuoteIQ, AI generates 5 contextual questions specific to that job type. For a roof wash, it might ask about algae severity and shingle type. For a painting job, surface prep and number of coats. Each question includes an explanation of why it matters for pricing accuracy.
Each service line item in a QuoteIQ AI-generated estimate shows a confidence level — High or Medium. High confidence means the AI has strong data for that pricing. Medium confidence means you may want to verify the price based on your experience. This gives you transparency into how reliable each line item is.
No. Neither Jobber nor Housecall Pro offers photo-based AI estimating at any price. Jobber has basic AI features for drafting quotes from text, but nothing that analyzes property photos, generates contextual questions, or provides confidence-scored pricing like QuoteIQ’s AI Estimator.
