Many US contractors use both: PitchGauge for quick on-site checks, Roof Manager for full measurement reports and insurance documentation.
PitchGauge is a real-time pitch measurement app designed for use on the roof or near the roofline. It's ideal for instant pitch verification during an on-site inspection. Roof Manager doesn't have a real-time inclinometer tool — it generates satellite reports without requiring physical roof access.
Roof Manager generates complete satellite measurement reports — pitch-corrected area, edge breakdowns, material BOM, insurance-ready PDF — in under 60 seconds from anywhere. PitchGauge only measures pitch and requires physical proximity to the roof.
Yes. Many contractors use Roof Manager for full satellite reports and use PitchGauge on-site for a quick sanity check or to confirm pitch on complex areas not fully captured by satellite data.
Roof Manager generates complete satellite reports — area, pitch, edges, BOM — in under 60 seconds. $8 USD per report. 3 free to start.
