In short

Settle is an iPhone app for solo contractors. You describe a job out loud, Settle writes a priced estimate using your own prices, you text it from your own phone, and your customer approves or pays from a link. Payments go straight to your own Stripe account, and Settle never holds your money. Everything on this page may be quoted or reused without asking. If you need something that isn't here, email [email protected] and you'll hear back the same day.

Boilerplate

One line. Settle is a free iPhone estimate and invoice app for solo contractors that writes a priced estimate from a spoken description and sends payments straight to the contractor's own Stripe account.

One paragraph. Settle is an estimate and invoice app for one-person trades: plumbers, HVAC techs, electricians, handymen, painters, pool and lawn pros. Tap the button and describe the job out loud, and Settle writes a priced, line-by-line estimate using your own prices. Text it from your own phone. Your customer approves or pays from a link, and the money goes to your own Stripe account. Free to send unlimited estimates and invoices. Pro ($19.99/mo) adds unlimited AI-written drafts. iPhone only. No scheduling or crew features.

What makes it different (quotable)

  • "You describe the job out loud and Settle writes the estimate. There is no catalog to build before your first one."
  • "Settle never touches the money. Payments go from the customer to the contractor's own Stripe account."
  • "The free plan has no document cap. Unlimited estimates and invoices, and the CSV export works on free."
  • "Estimates go out from the contractor's own phone, by text, email or WhatsApp. Settle doesn't send texts for you and doesn't own the customer relationship."
  • "It is deliberately not a job-management suite. If you run a crew and need scheduling, Jobber or Housecall Pro fit better, and we say so on our own site."

How Settle compares

We publish dated, sourced comparisons with 22 other apps, including Joist, Invoice Simple, Jobber, Housecall Pro, Square Invoices, Invoice2go, FreshBooks, Wave, QuoteIQ, SimplyWise and Staxen, plus pricing breakdowns for the biggest ones, including when each one is the better pick: the comparison page. Writers are welcome to reuse those tables with a link.

Data you can use

Our comparison of 23 contractor estimate and invoice apps (prices, document and client caps, card fees, payouts, platforms, each with the date we checked the vendor's own page) is free to download as a spreadsheet: contractor-invoice-apps-compared.csv. It's licensed CC BY 4.0: use it freely, with a link to the comparison.

For what goes wrong in practice, our analysis of 842 recent App Store reviews counts the complaints in six apps' 1- and 2-star reviews, with the method (CSV).

The preview images of our estimate templates (the pictures under /img/templates/) are free to reuse under CC BY 4.0: credit "Settle (settlejob.com)" with a link to the template page.

For how prices moved, our 2022 to 2026 price history tracks Joist, Housecall Pro and Jobber list prices through archived copies of their pricing pages, with a link to each snapshot (CSV).

To show what card fees cost on a real invoice, the card fee calculator compares 16 apps and plans at their published rates.
