High-value site visits are wasted when clients ghost after receiving free expert consultation, costing time and gas.

There is no easy way to pre-qualify serious leads before committing to a site visit, and no mechanism to charge for the consultation without losing prospects.

A tool to collect a non-refundable deposit or commitment before a site visit to filter out unserious leads

App Concept

VisitQual Pro

A lead pre-qualification app that combines upfront pricing presentation with a small, refundable site visit deposit. The deposit is applied to the project if the client books; otherwise, it covers the owner's time and travel. It integrates with calendar scheduling and sends automated reminders to reduce no-shows and ghosts.

Key Features

Embedded deposit collection (e.g., $50) at time of site visit booking
Automatic refund-to-project if client signs contract within 30 days
Calendar sync with Google/Outlook for visit scheduling
Client dashboard showing pricing, visit summary, and next steps

Target Users: Small construction and home service business owners who perform free on-site estimates and travel to client locations

Revenue Model: Freemium: free for up to 5 visits/month, then $29/mo for unlimited, plus 2% fee on deposits collected
