Quotrr vs
the lead sites.
Yelp, Angi, and Thumbtack sell the same homeowner to several contractors and bill every one of them, win or lose.
THE BILL, SIDE BY SIDEQUOTRR NEVER CHARGES PER LEAD AND NEVER SELLS THE SAME HOMEOWNER TWICE. PRO: $12.99/WK, $39/MO, OR $299/YR.
THE TRUE COSTThe true cost of buying leads
The lead sites do not charge for software. They charge for introductions, and the meter runs whether the customer hires you, ghosts you, or never answers. Yelp sells ad placement against searches for your trade. Angi and Thumbtack sell the homeowner's request itself, and they sell it more than once.
Figures as reported by contractors and third-party breakdowns, June 2026. On Yelp the reviews that decide your ranking live on Yelp's platform, not yours, and the ad auction decides who shows up first.

THE HONESTY SECTIONWhere the lead sites beat us
Credit where it is due. The lead sites sell one thing Quotrr does not: demand on day one. If you are brand new with zero reputation, that is real.
A contractor can be live on Thumbtack the same day with no website, no ad spend, and no upfront commitment.
The homeowner on the other end already described a real project, so the lead is warmer than any cold list.
Thirty years of homeowner trust behind the Angie's List name. You do not have to explain who they are.
Angi's AI Helper rewrites a vague homeowner request into a clear scoped job before it reaches you. Genuinely smart.
On Thumbtack you control your own service area and budget, so the spend stays inside lines you drew.
Angi's Approved gate runs background checks and license verification, and booked jobs carry a Happiness Guarantee.
The Quotrr case
Quotrr's position is that your reputation should bring the work, and you should own it. Pay-per-lead charges you for contact. Quotrr charges a flat price for tools and makes your finished jobs do the selling.
- Flat price, not a meter. Free forever for the core, Pro at $299 a year, or $39 a month, or $12.99 a week. The bill does not move when the leads do.
- Your lead is yours. Quotrr never sells the same homeowner to several contractors.
- Reviews only from verified completed jobs, non-deletable, by anyone, including us. On the lead sites your reviews are the platform's asset, not yours.
- A public Quotrr Score with a published formula, so a homeowner can check the record instead of the ad budget.
- Seven-touch follow-up and interactive proposals close the leads you already have. Most contractors do not need more leads, they need fewer quotes dying in silence.
Common questions
How much does a Thumbtack lead cost?
Roughly $15 to $80 in most trades, with a real-world range of $10 to $200 or more, priced in credits at about $1.50 each and repriced weekly, as reported June 2026. Refunds for bad leads come back as platform credits, not cash.
How much do contractors spend on Angi?
An annual membership around $300, monthly ad minimums around $400, and per-lead charges of $15 to $85, $100 or more for high-value trades, as reported June 2026. One cited example came to roughly $1,240 a month. Contracts typically run 12 months with a 30 to 35 percent early termination fee.
Why is cost per booked job so much higher than cost per lead?
The same lead is sold to several contractors. Angi sells one request to 3 to 8 pros, and on Thumbtack low conversion means cost per booked job typically runs 4 to 10 times the lead price. You pay for contact whether the customer replies or not.
How is Quotrr different from buying leads?
No per-lead charges, no shared leads, no credits. A flat price for the tools, and a verified, non-deletable review record with a public Score that does the selling. See pricing.
