Handoff

tiered subscription Win & Set Up the Work

AI-powered estimating and job-management platform for residential contractors -- turns walkthroughs, photos, videos, and plan files into estimates, proposals, invoices, schedules, and daily logs across web and mobile.

3.2 /5 composite score

Published SMB pricing, mobile/web self-serve onboarding, and a residential-specific workflow make this a credible estimating wedge for remodelers, but agent automation is still constrained by the lack of public API docs and an invite-only Zapier bridge.

Also covers

Handoff also appears in these sub-categories:

Construction Management

Useful as a lightweight residential operations layer because Handoff now bundles CRM, project management, scheduling, change orders, and daily logs, but it is still narrower and less interoperable than a full general-contractor CDE stack.

Accounting & Invoicing

Better than a bolt-on invoicing module because it supports proposals, signatures, invoices, homeowner financing, and QuickBooks sync, though the accounting surface remains oriented to small residential contractors rather than finance teams.

Alternatives in Estimating & Takeoff

Hover

AI measurement platform that generates 3D property models and material quantities from smartphone photos.

4.0/5

STACK Construction

Cloud takeoff and estimating platform with AI-assisted pattern recognition for repetitive assemblies.

3.6/5

Kreo

AI-powered 2D/PDF/CAD construction takeoff and cost-estimating platform that auto-measures rooms, walls, and openings, auto-counts repeated elements, and prices quantities against an items/assemblies database, with cloud-based collaboration (comments, callouts, shared projects) for quantity surveyors and estimators.
