Quote IQ helps contractors build quotes, contracts, and invoices. Clovr is a complete contractor CRM with AI-powered estimates, a permanent audit trail, and change order management that a quoting tool simply doesn't provide.
Why contractors switch
Quote IQ is strong at generating quotes. But a quote is only one step of the job — and when it comes to the tools that actually win jobs, protect you in disputes, and keep every change documented, there are gaps.
Clovr generates full line-item estimates in under 4 minutes using AI. Market-rate aware, markup-calculated, and branded — no manual build-out.
Every estimate, contract, change order, invoice, and payment timestamped forever. When a client disputes scope, you have proof, not a guessing game.
Change orders in Clovr stack on the original contract with their own e-signatures and timestamps. Mid-job changes stay documented and signed.
Your data is automatically backed up on a schedule. Records never expire, never get deleted.
Clovr is purpose-built for painters, roofers, electricians, plumbers, HVAC, and remodelers — not a generic field service tool for every industry.
Clovr includes contracts, e-signatures, SMS campaigns, and invoicing in every plan. No gated tiers, no paid add-ons.

Pricing comparison
Quote IQ may fit some workflows — but it's missing the features that actually protect and grow a trade contracting business. Here's what you get at each price point.
From a contractor who switched
"Quote IQ was fine for what it did, but I was still writing estimates by hand and had zero protection when clients disputed scope. The day I switched to Clovr, I generated my first AI estimate in 3 minutes and had a signed contract with full audit trail before lunch."Jake Johnson, Prestigious Painting Professionals — Minneapolis, MN
