About Handoff

Handoff is AI estimating software built for residential contractors, and it attacks the worst hour of the trade: the one after dinner, when the tools are down and you're still at the kitchen table pricing a remodel. The homeowner has waited three days for your number, and somebody else already sent theirs. Slow bids don't lose to better bids. They lose to faster ones.

Here's how it works. Describe the project in plain English, add photos, blueprints, or a walkthrough, and the AI, trained on 100,000+ completed residential projects, builds the full line-item estimate. Materials are priced from live supplier data covering 60 million+ SKUs from Home Depot, Lowe's, and others, adjusted to your ZIP code and your own markup rules.

The estimate is only the front door. One flow carries the same numbers from estimate to proposal to signable contract to invoice, with milestone billing, online payments, and homeowner financing at the end. It's built for remodelers, home builders, handymen, and trade contractors. If you bid commercial work off spec books, it isn't for you.

Why Contractors Pick Handoff

1

The Bid Goes Out Same Day

Describe the job, drop in the photos, and send a priced estimate before you pull out of the driveway. The contractor who answers first wins more work than the one who bids lowest.

2

Real Prices, Your ZIP Code

Material costs come from live supplier data, 60 million+ SKUs deep, adjusted to your area and your markup rules. Not a national average from three years ago.

3

One Flow From Bid to Paid

The estimate becomes the proposal, the contract, and the invoice without retyping a line. Deposits and progress payments come in through the same system.

Common Questions

What exactly is Handoff
Handoff is AI estimating software built for residential contractors. You describe the job, add photos, blueprints, or a walkthrough, and it builds a priced line-item estimate in minutes. The same system turns that estimate into a proposal, a signable contract, and an invoice, with a CRM and project tools around it.
How accurate are the AI estimates
The AI was trained on more than 100,000 completed residential projects and prices materials from live supplier data covering 60 million+ SKUs, adjusted to your ZIP code. It also learns your own pricing rules and markup. You review every line before anything goes to the homeowner, so the AI does the first 90 percent and you keep final say.
What does Handoff cost
Plans start at $119 a month billed annually, and there's a 7-day free trial, so you can price a real job with it before you pay anything.
Which contractors is Handoff built for
Remodelers, home builders, handymen, trade contractors, and fix-and-flip operators doing residential work. If you bid large commercial projects off spec books, it isn't built for you.
Does Handoff do more than estimates
Yes. Estimating is the front door, but it also runs lead tracking and pipeline, client portals, proposals and contracts, change orders, daily logs, scheduling, milestone invoicing, online payments, and homeowner financing options.
Can I use my own prices and markup
Yes. You set your own pricing rules, markup, and cost catalogs, and the AI applies them to every estimate it builds. The supplier data fills the gaps for materials you haven't priced yourself.
Does Handoff work on a phone
Yes. The mobile app runs on iOS and Android, so you can build and send the estimate from the driveway before you pull away. It holds a 4.8 rating on both the App Store and Google Play.
