QuoteIQ is a legit multi-trade contractor tool with a robust AI stack — Autopilot, CoPilot, AI Estimator, and a Virtual Call Team. But if you run an HVAC shop, two things trip you up: the monthly IQ Credits ceiling that meters all of it, and a vocabulary trained across every trade instead of tuned for AHRI numbers, refrigerant types, and EPA 608 dispositions.
Free tier is 3 documents per month, forever. Pro is $29/month for unlimited.
These are the three most common reasons shops on QuoteIQ tell us they want a different tool for HVAC-specific document work.
QuoteIQ's AI features (Autopilot, CoPilot, Estimator, Virtual Call Team) all draw from one monthly IQ Credits pool — 500 credits on Essentials, up to 8,000 on Max. AI voice commands, AI-drafted estimate lines, and virtual receptionist minutes (125 credits per minute) all consume from the same bucket. Busy months you hit the wall and either pay $1/credit for top-ups, upgrade to the next tier, or wait for the meter to reset. AskWoody Pro has no credit meter — voice and AI are unlimited on every paid tier.

QuoteIQ's voice AI is trained across trades — plumbing, electrical, roofing, HVAC, landscaping. That means when you say "R-410A" or "AHRI 12345678" or "18 SEER2 heat pump," you have to slow down, spell it out, correct it, or type it. AskWoody Pro's parsing is tuned specifically for HVAC vocabulary: equipment brands, refrigerant types, AHRI references, capacity numbers, and EPA 608 dispositions.
QuoteIQ has no HVAC-directory integration — you type in equipment specs by hand or copy-paste from a spec sheet. And there's no built-in refrigerant tracking, so EPA §608 recordkeeping happens on a separate paper log or spreadsheet. AskWoody Pro pulls AHRI-matched specs from a model number and captures refrigerant charge, disposition, and technician cert type inside every service order.
AI + voice with an IQ Credits meter, tuned across every trade.
Unlimited HVAC voice. AHRI + refrigerant tracking built in.
Cheaper would be enough on its own. These are what makes it HVAC-specific.
Paste an AHRI certificate number or an outdoor-unit model number. AskWoody Pro looks up the matched-pair specs — SEER2, EER2, HSPF2, capacity, indoor coil — and pre-fills every equipment field on your bid. QuoteIQ has no HVAC-directory integration; you type them in by hand.
Every service order captures refrigerant type, quantity added, quantity recovered, and technician EPA cert type — the exact fields §608 recordkeeping requires. Exportable at any time. QuoteIQ doesn't track refrigerant handling; you keep a separate paper log or spreadsheet.
Voice narration for description of work, notes for customer, load-calc dictation — unlimited on Free and Pro. QuoteIQ meters ALL AI usage (voice, CoPilot chat, Autopilot commands, Virtual Call Team at 125 credits/min) against monthly IQ Credits; heavier use forces a $1/credit top-up, tier upgrade, or a wait for the meter to reset.
You do not need to migrate a customer database to get value from AskWoody Pro. Most shops use us for HVAC document work alongside whatever they use for scheduling and CRM.
Google sign-in or email. No credit card. Verify your business name and license number (voluntary — used only on your PDF letterhead). Your first three documents this month are on the Free tier.
Tap the mic, talk through the job the way you would to a helper — equipment, capacity, refrigerant, install specifics. AskWoody parses it into a structured System Replacement Bid with AHRI-matched specs, EPA 608 fields, and a branded PDF ready to send.
Documents, customer records, and equipment history are yours to export as PDF or JSON anytime. We don't sell data or use it for training.
Free tier is genuinely free forever — 3 documents per month, no credit card, no 14-day countdown. Upgrade only when your volume needs it.
AskWoody Pro is shaped by 30 years of hands-on HVAC installation and service work. The vocabulary, the AHRI logic, the EPA 608 tracking — all built by someone who's been on the job.
