The short verdict
Pick Vorkeon if you are a small trade business (roofing, decks, fences, painting, flooring and more) that wants fast AI quotes and one app to run the crew, at a low price, with a free plan to fall back on.
Pick Handoff if you are a residential remodeler bidding larger jobs and want custom pricing catalogs, AI site walkthroughs, client financing, up to 5 options per proposal, or AI takeoffs from residential plans (Scale plan). Handoff goes deeper on estimating and has been on the market longer.
