Contractor IQ vs SiteNotes

Walk the job. Send the bid. ContractorIQ turns a photo or a quick description into an itemized estimate, then into a branded quote or invoice your client can pay from. Stop pricing jobs at the kitchen table after hours. Snap the job site, add the scope, and get materials and labor broken out line by line, priced for your market and your pricing tier. HOW IT WORKS 1. Walk the job: take a photo, pick one from your library, or describe the work. 2. Get the estimate: materials, quantities, labor hours and totals, itemized. 3. Build the bid: turn it into an estimate, quote or invoice with your logo, markup and tax. 4. Send it: share a clean PDF with a scan-to-pay QR code. ESTIMATES FROM A PHOTO Tile, paint, decks, roofing, drywall, flooring and remodels. ContractorIQ reads the job and lists the materials and labor it takes, with your region and your tier (budget, standard or premium) built into the prices. QUOTES AND INVOICES THAT LOOK PRO Your logo and brand color on every PDF. Set your default markup, tax and hourly rate once and every new bid starts with them. Convert an estimate to a quote and a quote to an invoice, track what is sent, accepted, paid or overdue, and add a payment link your clients scan to pay. VISUALIZE THE FINISHED JOB Photograph the space, describe the finished look and see it rendered. Drag the before and after slider with your client, then get the cost to build that redesign. ASK THE ESTIMATOR Chat about pricing, scope, building codes, permits and how to word a bid. Look up current material and labor prices for your area.

SiteNotes is the fastest way to document a construction site, whether you're the foreman writing the daily diary or the engineer signing off the inspection report. Long-press the mic, talk for ten seconds, and the app does the rest. No typing on a wet glove. No login. No monthly subscription. TWO ROLES, ONE APP Pick your role on first launch — the home screen, AI focus and PDF template all adapt to what you actually do. SITE TEAM MODE — for foremen, project managers, builders and supervisors - Voice-dictate site notes one-handed; auto-classified into hazards, completed work and daily diary entries. - GPS auto-detects the nearest jobsite, so logs land on the right project. - Calendar view with overdue + today's tasks pushed front-and-centre. - Export a polished Daily Site Diary PDF for the client, head office or principal contractor in one tap. - Optional team collaboration via Apple's CloudKit Sharing — assign sites to crew members; member logs flow back to the head's device. ENGINEER MODE — for inspectors, QA engineers, building certifiers - Inspection sessions (not loose notes): start a visit, dictate findings, finish — every note auto-bundles into one signed report. - Floor plan pins: tap on the architectural drawing to mark a defect or hazard at 10× the accuracy of GPS. - Site Visit Report PDF with project header, conducted-by + site representative blocks, optional disclaimers, photos and floor-plan annotations. - One-tap email to the builder using the recipient list you maintain per project. - Caption-per-photo override so each PDF entry tells the right story. WHY SITENOTES IS DIFFERENT - Voice-first. One-handed capture, designed for a noisy jobsite and gloves. - Works offline. The whole app runs without a connection. Sync later when you're back in coverage. - On-device AI. Transcription and classification happen on your iPhone. Your notes don't leave the device unless you choose to export them. - No account required. Nothing to sign up for, no team seats to buy, no servers holding your data hostage. - Native iOS. Fast, ad-free, designed for the iPhone you already use on site. COMMON FEATURES - Auto-classified into hazards, completed work and daily diary entries. - GPS auto-detects the nearest jobsite, so logs land on the right project. - Weather and site conditions stamped on every entry. - Attach photos inline, annotate them with arrows and notes, and pin them to a floor plan. - iCloud sync uses your own Apple ID. Move between iPhone and iPad without setting up another account. PRIVACY SiteNotes runs on-device by default. Voice transcription, classification and storage all happen on your iPhone. There is no SiteNotes account, no analytics dashboard tracking your day, and no advertising network. If you turn on iCloud sync, your data syncs through your own iCloud account — we never see it. BUILT FOR THE TRADES Whether you're running a renovation, a commercial fit-out, a civil works site or a residential build, SiteNotes keeps both the daily diary and the formal inspection report organised without slowing you down. Designed alongside working foremen, engineers and QA inspectors in Australia, the UK and the US. Free in v1.0. Download it, take it on tomorrow's site walk, and see how much faster a day's worth of notes can be.
