Implied Software Gaps
- A mobile app that simplifies measuring complex dormer geometries for metal roof ordering
App Concept
DormerMeasure Pro
A mobile app that guides roofers through measuring complex roof geometries like gable dormers for metal roofing. Users input basic roof pitch and dormer dimensions via simple prompts or photo-based measurement, then the app calculates the exact panel lengths, angles, and quantities needed for ordering. It eliminates guesswork and reduces material waste.
Key Features
- Step-by-step guided measurement wizard for dormer types (gable, hip, etc.)
- Photo-based measurement using phone camera and AR overlay
- Automatic calculation of panel lengths, angles, and waste
- Exportable materials list and cut diagram for ordering
Target Users: Solo roofers and small roofing crews specializing in metal roofing, typically 1-5 employees, across the US.
Revenue Model: $9.99 per measurement report or $29.99/month subscription for unlimited measurements and project management features.
