Housecall Pro is dispatch-first software for service calls. WinkScope is project-first software for contractors who bid work, manage phases and bill in progress draws. If most of your revenue comes from quoted projects rather than same-day service tickets, the difference matters.
AI scope writing, line-item pricing, allowances, markup control and e-sign proposals built for quoted projects.
Deposits, progress invoices, retainage and formal change orders with client approval, not just a job-complete invoice.
Multi-week project schedules with dependencies and crew allocation instead of a day-view dispatch board.
$29.99/mo to start, with no per-user charge on Starter.
