CurbBid vs QuoteIQ

QuoteIQ Max and CurbBid Pro are the same price. We do less on purpose.

QuoteIQ's Max plan packs 50+ features for $399.99 a month. AI estimates, satellite measurement, customer self-quoting, AI Autopilot, Inspection Forms. If you'll use it all, great. If you just want quotes followed up, invoices reminded, and reviews requested — CurbBid does that for the same $399.

30-day money-back · No contract · Fast setup, flat price
Quick verdict

QuoteIQ is a feature-rich, all-in-one CRM built mostly for pressure washing, lawn care, and contractor crews that want AI estimating, MapMeasure Pro, customer self-quoting, and a deep tool stack. CurbBid is the opposite: opinionated, narrow, fast. We don't market AI. We don't measure properties from satellites. We send quotes, follow up, get you paid, and ask for reviews.

The contractor voice

You bought 50 features. You use 4.

QuoteIQ Max packs Virtual Call Team, AI Autopilot, Before/After AI Image Generator, MapMeasure Pro, AI Website Builder, Inspection Forms, Pipelines, and a couple dozen more (source). It's a lot. CurbBid does three things and does them by default: quote follow-ups, invoice reminders, review requests. That's the list. We don't apologize for it.

You wanted simple. They added more credits.

QuoteIQ uses AI Credits that vary by plan and reset monthly (source). Run out, your AI features stop. CurbBid's automations don't run on credits. They just run.

Their support is good. So is ours.

Credit where it's due — QuoteIQ's support team has a strong reputation. CurbBid's support is also a real human, by text or call, 7 days a week, 7am–9pm, 15-minute SLA. Different products, similar promise on this front.

The math

Real cost at 1, 3, 5, and unlimited users

Crew size QuoteIQ CurbBid
1 user Essentials $29.99/mo (limited features) $399/mo
3 users Pro $149.99/mo (4 users) $399/mo
5 users Elite $249.99/mo (7 users) $399/mo
10 users Max $399.99/mo (unlimited) $399/mo

For a 1-to-3 user shop, QuoteIQ is meaningfully cheaper than CurbBid. We won't pretend $30/mo and $399/mo are the same conversation. CurbBid catches up at unlimited users (where QuoteIQ Max and CurbBid Pro tie at $399), and pulls ahead on simplicity, no AI credits, and no feature gating.

In the details

Where the products differ in philosophy

  • QuoteIQ is 'more features for less money'
  • CurbBid is 'fewer features done right, no per-seat math, every feature included'
  • Both have value. The choice depends on whether you'll actually use 50 features

Common contractor sentiment

  • QuoteIQ users on the App Store rave about the user interface and AI tools
  • Some users report price increases on plans they signed up for
  • AI features rely on credits that reset monthly
The honest take

When QuoteIQ is the right call.

QuoteIQ is genuinely better than CurbBid if you're a pressure washing or lawn care company that needs satellite property measurement, you want an AI receptionist, you run a website inside the same app, or you want a Pipelines/Kanban sales view. QuoteIQ packs more features per dollar than almost anything in the category — especially at the lower tiers. If you'll use 60% of the toolkit, it's a fantastic deal. CurbBid is for the contractor who won't.

Bottom line

Start free. Setup is fast and the price is flat. If CurbBid doesn't pay for itself in 30 days, get every penny back.
