AI photo quotesfor exterior painting.

Quote exterior painting jobs from your customers' photos. RayQuote measures the job with AI, your rates do the math, and you approve and text the price in about a minute. No drive-out.

How exterior painting quoting works

  1. Your customer sends photos. They open your RayQuote link or scan your QR code, pick exterior painting and follow the photo tips. No app, no account.
  2. AI measures the job. It measures exterior wall area, trim / fascia, doors as an honest range, with a confidence level.
  3. Your rates do the math. Each line is multiplied by your rate, plus your trip fee and minimum, rounded your way.
  4. You approve and text it. Change the price if you know better, then send it from your own phone.

What customers photograph

Photograph each side of the house straight on, plus close-ups of trim, peeling spots and doors.

Exterior painting quoting FAQ

Can you quote exterior painting jobs from photos?

What photos should customers send for a exterior painting quote?

Photograph each side of the house straight on, plus close-ups of trim, peeling spots and doors.

How is a exterior painting price calculated?

RayQuote measures exterior wall area, trim / fascia, doors from the photos as a range, multiplies each by your rate, adds any trip fee and applies your minimum ($800 to start), then rounds the way you choose. Every line of the math is shown so you can check it before you send.
