How It Works
SurfaceMeasure measures any property from satellite imagery in under 60 seconds, sends a branded quote your customer can accept, and tracks the job until you're paid.
The Workflow
The same four steps on every job, from a sidewalk to a supermarket lot.
The property is on your screen in seconds.
Type the address, pick the job, and the satellite image of the property is already up. Or start from Prospects: commercial lots near you, already outlined and measured, biggest first.
More on property search
Bid only what you'll work.
Tap each corner along the curb, or drag one loop around the edge. Close the shape and the square footage is there, to scale. Add a section for the side lot, cut out islands and buildings, and the total takes them off.
More on the drawing tools
A quote they can say yes to.
Type your rate and the price is on screen. Send it as a link: your logo, your price and the traced property on one page. They tap Accept on their phone, and you see when they opened it. Or send the PDF.
More on sending quotes
Never lose a job you quoted.
Every job moves from measured to quoted, booked and paid, and an accepted quote books the job on its own. Today shows who to call, the map lays out this week's route, and every customer stays in Contacts.

Because you are not judging a photograph by eye. The imagery is scaled to the ground, so the outline you trace carries real dimensions, and the square footage is calculated from that outline the same way it would be calculated from a site sketch.
On flat outdoor surfaces that puts a traced measurement typically within 1–3% of a tape, and it is more repeatable than a tape because the shape is saved. Nobody is walking a wheel along a curb at seven in the morning and writing the answer on their hand.
Driveways, patios, walks and whole lots, priced per sq ft. Residential surfaces show the going range beside your rate.
Mowing and aeration priced per visit from the lawn's size, fertilizing per sq ft. Cut out the house, drive and beds.
Priced per push by storm depth, per salt run and for the season, from your hourly rate.
Priced per sq ft by lot size, with the stalls, line footage and sealer gallons estimated for you.
Slabs, walks and drives at your rate per sq ft. Each pad is its own section, one total.
Sod priced per sq ft on the lawn's net area, with beds, walks and the house cut out.
Your rate per sq ft on the net area, with islands and buildings cut out of the lot.
Your rate per sq ft. A pool deck takes the pool out of the total.
If you price work by the square foot and the surface is flat, you can measure it, whether or not your trade is on the list.
No. SurfaceMeasure loads high-resolution satellite imagery for any address in the United States. You search the address, the map moves to the property, and you trace the surface from wherever you are: the truck, the office or the kitchen table.
On flat outdoor surfaces like concrete, asphalt, pavers and decking, a traced measurement typically lands within 1–3% of a tape. The imagery is scaled to the ground, so the outline you draw carries real dimensions and the area is calculated from that outline, not estimated by eye. The shape is also saved, so you can reopen it and check it later.
Eight job types: parking lot, snow removal, sidewalk, driveway, patio, deck, pool deck and lawn. Most are one traced shape and one number. Pool deck takes the pool out of the deck and quotes the net area, and snow removal turns the lot into a price per push, per salt run and for the season.
Coverage is recent for most of the country, but capture dates vary, and a driveway poured last month may not be in the picture yet. When the imagery and the property disagree, trace the footprint you can see and note the difference on the quote, or measure that job on site as you always have. The imagery date is a limit of the picture, not something the tool hides from you.
That is what it is built for. Searching, choosing the surface, tracing, pricing and sending the quote all run in a phone browser with nothing to install. You can tap once at each corner, or hold and drag one loop around the surface, whichever suits your hands. Close the shape and the square footage is there.
A quote with your company name and logo, the property address, the measured area, your price and your scope of work. Send it as a link and they open it on their phone and tap Accept; you see when they opened it, and an accepted quote moves the job to Booked in Jobs. You can also send it as a PDF. The image export is a summary card for a text message: the address, the surface and the square footage, not a photo of the property.
Yes. A finished measurement saves to your account with the address, the surface type and the numbers. Reopen a past job, re-export the PDF, or look up a property's square footage months later without measuring it again.
Yes. Every job you measure lands in Jobs and moves from measured to quoted, booked and paid. You see when a customer opens the quote link and when they accept it. Today shows who to call next, Pipeline shows what is out waiting on a yes, Map lays out the week's route, and Contacts keeps every customer and their jobs in one place.
Yes, with Prospects. It shows commercial properties near you with each lot already outlined and measured, biggest first, reviewed lots first and estimated ones marked so you can check the outline, and only lots of 10,000 sq ft and up. Pick the trades you sell, see what each lot is worth, and build the quote in one tap. Prospects comes with Pro and with the trial; if your area is not covered yet, you can ask for it.
More detail if you want it: every feature and what it costs.
Measure a property you have already quoted and see how close it lands. That is the only test worth running.
