Hover is the property intelligence platform that turns a scan of any residential or commercial property into high-quality 3D data, complete with accurate measurements, structured documentation, and reliable estimates.
Whether you're a contractor winning bids or an adjuster closing claims, Hover gives every property professional a single, verified source of truth—from first scan to final estimate.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan the property. Walk around the structure and scan with your phone. Hover takes the photos you need, no special equipment or second visit required.
2. Hover builds your 3D model and measurements. Hover AI generates a precise 3D model with accurate dimensions for the roof, siding, walls, windows, and doors.
3. Document, estimate, and close. For contractors: generate material quantities, explore design options, and send a professional bid before you leave the driveway. For adjusters: review organized damage documentation, get a repair vs. replace determination, and push a claim-ready package directly to your estimating platform.
ONE PLATFORM, EVERY WORKFLOW Hover connects measurement, inspection, and documentation in a single platform. Verified property reports and structured data flow directly into your estimating tools, CRMs, and project management systems—eliminating re-measurement and manual data entry from first site visit to final proposal.
Whether you're a solo contractor, a regional roofing company, or a national insurance carrier, Hover scales to your operation. One visual platform. Every property. Every professional.
FOR ROOFING & EXTERIOR CONTRACTORS Scan a property, get your measurements, and build a professional proposal—all before you leave the driveway. Hover covers roofing, siding, gutters, windows, doors, and full exterior projects.
No more manual takeoffs. No more return visits to re-measure. No more lost bids because your estimate took too long. Hover puts accurate material quantities in your hands on the spot—so you win more projects and close faster than the competition.
FOR INSURANCE ADJUSTERS & CLAIMS TEAMS Scan the property, document the damage, and push a claim-ready package to your estimating platform, all from a single visit. Hover covers exterior and interior claims for any damage type, any complexity.
No more return visits to re-measure. No more sorting and uploading photos after hours. No more starting over because something was missed on-site. Hover guides you through every step of the scan, inspection, and damage assessment on the property, so when you leave, you're done.
Back at the desk, review site photos matched to each roof slope in an interactive 3D model to make faster, more confident repair vs. replace decisions, and get the payout right the first time.
The result: accurate, defensible documentation that holds up, every time, no matter who performed the inspection.

This app was outstanding… on the one day I was able to use its full capabilities without a glitch. The first couple days I downloaded and played around with it, it was limited and buggy. That was acceptable because they are clearly working on a groundbreaking project. It has even gotten all of the measurements perfect and this was just from a photo. Then I had one day (a couple days ago) where it was an above and beyond experience. I was able to easily select and edit each part of the house down to the soffits and trim. And being able to select from the general products in order to more accurately represent what I already I have in place made it that much more helpful (i.e. black double-hung windows and a flat roof with TPO). However today, it has regressed to something even less usable than the first time I opened it. I’m sure it will be back to great within the next week. Overall, (when it’s working) this is now one of my favorite new apps. I can see how it’s going to just keep getting better and better.

I was completely blown away with the simplicity of this application. I have always been interested in architectural design and civil engineering. I’ve wanted so badly to design homes and structures as not only a career but a passion as well . For the average design geek to be able to use a CAD program with such ease would be extremely costly- To put it into dollars and cents - the professional design programs can cost up to $9,000 . What Hover does for the average “Joe” design geek is outstanding. Hover delivers an application where one can literally design an entire home with ease and minimal effort. The app is very instrumental in allowing first time business owners the opportunity to launch what can easily become an extremely lucrative business, Llc and or Corporation. This can all be done by any smartphone, device etc..at a very affordable price not to mention the completely free demo offered to get your design wheels turning while becoming acclimated with Hover !!! I just can’t stop talking about this let alone showing everyone around me what I’m doing with such ease ! I would recommend it to any architect or designer and absolutely anyone in the construction field! Thank you Hover Sincerely, Stephan W. Buckingham

Made my job so much easier and efficient.

Obviously technology will always live under the burden of. If it works. It will be amazing. So like any software designed to enhance and build off of. Hover has its strengths and weaknesses. This would be no exception. However the strength of the app in comparison to doing my job without it. Really separates a good adjuster from those who are just mediocre and those who need tremendous assistance. I am a field adjuster for a world leading insurance company and we utilize the app to fine tune our, already strong skills, this has completely changed our flow of operations. We are hundreds of percentages more efficient and our accuracy is spot on. That makes the corporate leaders happy and it allows us to get to an assignment and get done. But most of all. It frees up our time to care for the customer. We aren’t spending an hour drawing diagrams or measuring roofs. And it really separates those who are flexible and adaptable in those stuck in old ways they don’t help the customer. I really like this app a lot. What a time it is to do our line of work with advancements like this.

I would give it ZERO stars if I could

Update: Hover support replied and informed me that there is a setting that allows photos to be stored on the device. That's great suggestion IF it would have been noted in the installation instructions. I am a homeowner taking photos for insurance purposes. I'm not. Also, the options to “allow access to your photos” is an Apple option and the options provided aren't clear. Who would want to give access to ALL your photos? How would one know that, as Hover stated This DOESN'T allow them to see the other photos on my device. I'm adding a 2nd 1 Star rating for the documentation. For homeowner use, this should be part of the installation information and not dependent on interpreting Apple's options on settings. I can understand Real Estate users are different than home owners and wouldn't want to store every picture. However, it's very likely that a homeowner would like to store the photos, especially, the OTHER photos.Where to begin? PS, I have many years in technology and software. This software has many problems. It's not suited to larger properties as it cannot accommodate houses with pool houses, guest house, or other out buildings. It's also not always possible to go back a step to correct something. The report about the pictures I took wouldn't open. Instead I received a message that the website may be trying to steal my data and couldn't be trusted. This is often caused by an incorrect or expired SSL certificate. The most annoying shortfall is that it's clear that the photos you take, including the extra photos, aren't saved anywhere on your device. What's up with that? I would go out of my mind with frustration if I had to use this app everyday.

Hi there, thank you for taking time to leave this feedback! We're always looking for ways to improve our app. If you allow the HOVER app to have access to your photo gallery at the time it's being installed on your phone, any photo taken through the HOVER app will be stored to your phone's photo gallery as a back-up. Allowing access in this way only gives us permission to copy the photos into your library - we do not have the ability to view any photos in your library. Our customer support team can assist with this issue and your other concerns about detached properties. Can you send them a note at support@HOVER.to so they can pull up your account and troubleshoot any unresolved issues?
We've made improvements and fixed some issues.
Feedback, feature requests, or success stories, please share them with our team at support@hover.to.
We look forward to hearing from you!
