Hover turns smartphone photos into 3D home models for measurements, design visualization, and construction estimates.
Hover is a construction and insurance platform, founded in 2011 and headquartered in San Francisco, that lets users capture a property using just smartphone photos and turns those photos into an accurate 3D model, without laser scanners or drones.
From the resulting 3D model, Hover extracts precise exterior measurements, which contractors, roofers, and insurers use to reduce estimating errors and material waste on home improvement and insurance restoration projects.
Hover's core capability is photo-based 3D modeling of a property's exterior, from which it derives measurements for siding, roofing, windows, and other exterior elements. Users can visualize real building products and materials on the 3D model before work begins.
The platform also generates cost estimates, material lists, and client-ready proposals from the same model, and includes dedicated roofing measurement and estimation tools, plus project tracking features for documenting progress with photos.
Hover does not publish subscription pricing on its website. The company offers a free trial so prospective customers can test the 3D modeling and measurement workflow before committing.
Businesses interested in ongoing use, such as roofing contractors, remodelers, or insurance carriers, need to contact Hover directly for a quote based on team size and intended use case.
