Who is ProLine?
ProLine is a bootstrapped roofing CRM founded in 2021 that leans hard into communication automation: unlimited calling and texting, call recordings, email and SMS automations, multi-option quotes, payments, and invoicing all live in the platform. Its higher plans add inbound and outbound AI voice agents, AI call summaries, and AI insurance estimate handling, which makes it one of the few roofing CRMs with a phone-and-AI story.
Pricing is flat but steep: three plans at $497, $797, and $1,697 a month, each including 3 seats and done-for-you setup. The AI voice agents and call summaries only arrive on the $797 plan. Integrations run through Zapier rather than an open API, and a free starter version is advertised for getting started.
For a roofing sales operation doing serious volume, ProLine's automation depth can genuinely replace office headcount. For a one-to-three-truck crew, $497 a month is a big check for the same category of tools smaller platforms now include.
Who is Autopilot?
Autopilot is an all-in-one CRM built for home service businesses: junk removal, cleaning, landscaping, moving, and the rest of the trades that keep neighborhoods running. Plans start at $49 a month for scheduling, estimates, invoicing, payments, and online booking. Crew at $99 adds two-way texting and limited calling. Full Throttle at $149 adds the full phone system, AI receptionist, QuickBooks, GPS, and marketing tools. Plans include 1, 5, or 10 team members respectively.
It was built by a founder who ran his own junk removal company and got tired of paying for three tools that didn't talk to each other. Over 400 businesses run on it today, and it holds a 4.8 rating on the App Store and 4.9 on Google Play.
Autopilot plans start at $49 a month, and the $149 Full Throttle plan includes the full phone system, AI receptionist, QuickBooks, GPS, and marketing tools.
