A cheaper, faster EagleView alternative
Need squares and pitch to quote a roof? Horus delivers an instant aerial roof report for $15 — no account, no waiting.
When you don’t need the full premium report
EagleView is the industry standard for detailed roof reports, and insurance carriers often require it. But for many everyday jobs — a first estimate, a re-roof quote, a gutter bid — you need the total squares, the pitch and the perimeter, and you need them now.
That’s what Horus does: an instant report for $15, with no account and no subscription.

When to use EagleView instead
- Insurance claims and supplements that require an approved vendor.
- Jobs where you need every ridge, hip and valley length before you visit.
- Roofs with no high-resolution imagery in our coverage.
When Horus is the better fit
- You quote a few roofs a week and don’t want a subscription.
- You need the numbers in a minute, not in hours.
- You want to screen leads before spending time on a site visit.
