How it works
From map to commission in three steps
No ladders, no door-knocking. Just data-driven leads that practically sell themselves.
Pick a neighborhood
Drop a pin anywhere on the map and set a radius. RoofScout pulls every property in that area.
AI scores every roof
A vision model reads top-down imagery and rates each roof 0–100, flagging missing shingles, staining, moss, and age.
Mail, route & earn
Send the worst roofs a free-inspection postcard, hand the lead to a roofing partner, and collect a commission when they close.

FAQ
Questions, answered honestly
Yes — lead generation for contractors is a well-established business. The keys are: use aerial imagery you're licensed to analyze (not scraped Google Maps), frame outreach as a free roof check rather than claiming damage, and honor do-not-mail/opt-out requests. RoofScout is built around those guardrails.
Top-down imagery is great for surfacing candidates — discoloration, missing shingles, moss, patching, and age signals — but it's not a substitute for an on-roof inspection. That's why every score includes a confidence level, and why outreach offers a free inspection rather than a verdict.
No. Your job is to find homeowners who likely need work and connect them to a vetted roofing company. The contractor handles the inspection, quote, and the actual job. You earn a commission for the introduction.
Two common models: a flat fee per qualified lead, or a percentage commission on jobs that close (typically 8–12%). You can run either — or both — and track everything in the pipeline.
RoofScout itself runs on free tiers to start. Going live adds usage-based costs for the AI vision model, aerial/property data, and direct mail. You only pay for what you scan and send, so you can start small and scale with revenue.
Absolutely. RoofScout ships with a full demo mode that uses realistic sample data, so you can scan an area, score roofs, and work the pipeline end-to-end without a single API key.
