Run your entire company
by talking to it.
Roofs, insurance claims, estimates, photos, crews, homeowners. All of it in one system that thinks. You talk, Rolo works, and nothing happens until you say go.
Launching 2027 · Roofing and storm restoration first · Then everything else that touches a home
This is Jobrolo. Ask it anything.
Roloonline, ask me anythingWhere the name comes from
Job. Rolo. Rolodex.
Before software, a contractor's whole business sat on a wheel of cards on the desk. Every homeowner, every sub, every supplier, every job. That wheel was the company. Lose it and you lost everything.
Then the wheel got split into a dozen apps that do not talk to each other. Your contacts live one place, your photos another, your claims somewhere else, and the history of the house lives nowhere at all.
Jobrolo is that wheel rebuilt for now. Every job, every home, every crew, every claim, and every person attached to the work, back in one place.
The difference is this one thinks. It does not just hold the card. It does the work on it.
What this actually is
Nobody has a good word for this yet.
People call Jobrolo a CRM because that is the closest thing they know. It is not one. A CRM is a filing cabinet you feed. You enter the data, you chase the fields, you remember what happens next.
Jobrolo is the opposite arrangement. You tell it what you need in plain words and it goes and does the work: pulls the measurements, builds the estimate, drafts the supplement, writes the homeowner, flags what the carrier missed. It knows roofing. It knows insurance. It knows your company. Then it stops and asks before it acts, because the authority stays with you.
Jobrolo runs contracting companies from a conversation. Roofs, insurance claims, estimates, photos, crews, and homeowners all live in one system driven by Rolo, an AI operating partner that does the work and waits for your approval. Built for roofing and storm restoration first, then every trade that touches a home. Launching 2027.
How it works
You talk. Rolo works. You approve.
Say what you need
In plain words, the way you would tell your best office manager. A storm hit, a homeowner called back, an adjuster scoped low, a crew needs a schedule. No forms, no menus, no remembering where a field lives.
Rolo assembles the work
It reads your live records: the customer, the property, the photos, the measurements, the claim. Then it builds the thing you asked for and shows you exactly what it intends to do, down to the message it wants to send.
You say go
Nothing consequential moves without a person approving the exact plan. Approved work runs, and every action leaves a receipt. You keep the authority; you lose the busywork.
What that sounds like
You: Hail came through the north side last night. Set up a canvass for the Ridge Creek neighborhood and pull the storm history.
Rolo: Storm research shows a reported hail event for that area yesterday evening. I have a canvassing game plan ready with the streets mapped, and I will log every knock with GPS and photos as your reps work. Want me to assign it to the field team?
You: Assign it. And build the itemized estimate for the Hendersons from Tuesday's inspection so I can review it tonight.
Rolo: Drafted from the inspection scope and roof measurements, ready for your review. Nothing goes to the homeowner until you approve it.
Capabilities
What it does
You talk. It works.
Ask for an estimate, a claim update, a canvass plan, a follow up. Rolo reads your live job records, does the assembly work a coordinator would spend an afternoon on, and hands it back for your approval. No forms, no hunting through tabs, no retyping what the system already knows.
It speaks insurance
Scope of loss, RCV and ACV, recoverable depreciation, supplements, overhead and profit, ordinance and law items, appraisal through umpire and payment closeout. These live as structured records Jobrolo can reason about, not a folder of PDFs it merely stores. Most contractor software files the claim; Jobrolo understands it.
Nothing moves without you
The AI writes an exact plan and stops. A signed in person approves it before anything is sent, changed, or charged. Every approved action leaves a durable receipt showing what ran and who said yes, which is the difference between automation you trust with customers and automation you babysit.
Estimates people sign
Measurement backed roof reports and line item estimates built from your real scope, sent for electronic signature without leaving the conversation. The homeowner gets a document that reads like proof instead of a guess, and you get it in minutes instead of an evening at the kitchen table.
Documents read themselves
Drop in a carrier estimate, a scope of loss, or claim paperwork. Jobrolo extracts the structured facts, claim numbers, line items, totals, depreciation, and raises a conflict flag when an extracted value disagrees with what your records already say. Discrepancies between your scope and the carrier scope surface early, when they are still cheap to fight.
Doors with memory
Canvassing that remembers the street. Live sessions with map pins, GPS located leads, property measurements, storm research for the neighborhood you are working, and street level memory that persists between visits. The second knock on a street starts smarter than the first, and a good conversation becomes a customer without retyping a thing.
Proof from the roof
Inspection photos stay tied to the selected property with the original image, note, capture source, and recorded GPS or location provenance. Organize the inspection by roof section, mark evidence with arrows, circles, freehand lines, and note pins, then choose Save only, Quick details, or a Detailed AI review that keeps uncertainty visible.
Property memory across projects
Inside your company, authorized photos, measurements, claims, visits, and completed work stay attached to the property across projects instead of disappearing with one invoice. The homeowner-controlled record that can cross companies is the bigger vision, and it will require explicit consent and sharing controls.
The insurance engine
Restoration work is an insurance business. Jobrolo is built like it knows that.
A storm restoration job is not a sale, it is a claim with a roof attached. The money moves through scope of loss, replacement cost value, actual cash value, recoverable depreciation, deductibles, supplements, and overhead and profit. Most software treats all of that as attachments in a job folder and leaves the understanding to whoever is awake at midnight reading PDFs.
Jobrolo models the claim itself. Carrier paperwork is read into structured line items and totals. Your scope and the carrier scope can disagree, and when they do, the conflict is flagged instead of buried. Supplement opportunities are surfaced from what the records show, not from memory.
When a claim is disputed, the appraisal process is a first class workflow, not a note in a text thread: appraisal demanded, appraisers assigned, meetings scheduled, umpire if it gets there, award, payment closeout. Sixteen distinct phases, tracked, so nothing dies in the gap between "carrier went quiet" and "somebody should follow up."
And the integrity lines are built in, not bolted on. Jobrolo does not guarantee claim outcomes, does not waive or absorb deductibles, and does not coach anyone to misrepresent damage. In an industry that fights a scammy reputation, working clean is a feature.
One operating partner
One conversation. Deep workflow knowledge.
Rolo, the operating partner
The one conversation you have. Rolo reads your company's live records, prepares work across sales, production, claims, and communication, and keeps the workflow together from the first request through the final receipt.
Claims intelligence
Claim documents, carrier-scope comparisons, supplements, policy explanations, and appraisal analysis stay connected to the exact job. Rolo surfaces the relevant facts and conflicts for review without turning the claim into another folder hunt.
The approval layer
Every consequential action follows the same rule: prepare an exact plan, stop, and wait for a person. Approvals are one time, actions leave receipts, and the system cannot widen its own authority.
The long-term vision
Every home should have a permanent record.
A car has a history anyone can pull up. A house has a shoebox of receipts and whatever the last owner remembers. That is a strange thing to accept about the most expensive thing most people will ever buy.
Today, each company can keep its authorized inspection photos, measurements, estimates, claims, and completed work connected to the property across projects. That is already more durable than an invoice folder, but it is still scoped to the signed-in company and the people invited to that work.
The future is a homeowner-controlled record. The homeowner would decide who sees it: a buyer, an agent, an adjuster, or the next contractor who needs to know what is under the shingles. That sharing layer is not live today; it needs explicit consent, provenance, and revocation instead of automatic address matching.
Contractors get an easier job because the history is already there. Homeowners get proof of what they own. That is what Jobrolo is building toward, one real job at a time.
Who it is for
If your work happens at a house, Rolo is built to run it.
Roofers
The launch focus. Built around how roofing companies actually run: canvassing after a storm, inspections with photo evidence, insurance claims, supplements, production, and collections in one system.
Storm restoration
Hail to closeout. Storm verification against real weather data, scoping, carrier estimate review, supplements, and the appraisal process tracked as first class records the whole way through.
Mitigation
Water, fire, and mold work runs on the same claim first records: documentation, drying logs as photo evidence, carrier communication, and payment tracking without inventing a workflow.
Public adjusters and appraisers
Claim first workflows built for the advocacy side: claim files, evidence, carrier negotiation history, and the appraisal process through umpire and payment closeout, modeled the way the work actually flows.
Home service pros
Plumbers, painters, gutter crews, lawn care. The property record does not care about trade, so the same chat, scheduling, photos, and homeowner communication work for any company whose truck parks in a driveway.
Homeowners
Free to join a shared job conversation. Homeowners can see the project information their contractor shares and keep the communication with the work instead of scattered across text threads. A homeowner-controlled cross-company property record is the longer-term vision.

Answers
Common questions
What is Jobrolo?+
Jobrolo runs a contracting company from a conversation. You tell Rolo what you need and it pulls from your live job records to build the estimate, the roof report, the claim update, or the follow up. Then it waits for you to approve. Most people call it a CRM because that is the closest word they have, but nothing about how it works resembles one.
Where does the name Jobrolo come from?+
Job plus Rolo, as in Rolodex. A contractor used to keep the whole business on a wheel of cards on the desk: every homeowner, every sub, every supplier, every job. Jobrolo is that wheel rebuilt, holding the jobs, the homes, the people, and the history in one place. The difference is that this one does the work instead of just holding the card.
Who is Jobrolo for?+
Anyone whose work happens at a property. Jobrolo launches with roofing and storm restoration companies, and the same system serves mitigation contractors, public adjusters, appraisers, multi trade companies, and home service pros. Homeowners are part of it too.
When does Jobrolo launch?+
Public launch is planned for 2027. Early access opens before then for a small group of founding companies. Join the list on jobrolo.com and you will get build updates and an early access invitation when your trade opens up.
Is Jobrolo only for roofing and storm work?+
No. Jobrolo is built around the property and the job rather than any single trade, so the same record works for mitigation, public adjusting, appraisal, and general home services. Roofing and storm restoration are the launch focus because that is where the insurance claim depth matters most.
How is Jobrolo different from a contractor CRM?+
A CRM is a filing cabinet you maintain. Jobrolo is a system that does the work. You talk to it instead of navigating it, AI agents assemble the job while a human keeps the authority to approve anything consequential, and the insurance appraisal process is modeled as real records rather than a folder of documents.
Is Jobrolo a roofing CRM?+
That is the closest existing category, and if you are searching for a roofing CRM, storm restoration software, or an insurance restoration platform, Jobrolo is built for exactly that work. The difference is architectural: instead of forms and pipelines you maintain, Jobrolo is a conversational system where AI agents prepare the work, a human approves it, and each company builds an authorized property record that carries evidence across projects.
Who is Rolo?+
Rolo is the AI operating partner you talk to. It reads your live company records, prepares work across the job, and shows the exact plan before anything consequential happens. It keeps claims, production, documents, communication, and approvals in one conversation while the signed-in person keeps final authority.
Does Jobrolo read carrier estimates and claim documents?+
Yes. Upload a carrier estimate, a scope of loss, or claim paperwork and Jobrolo extracts the structured facts: claim numbers, line items, totals, depreciation. When an extracted value disagrees with what your records already say, it raises a conflict flag instead of silently overwriting, so discrepancies between your scope and the carrier scope surface early.
What can Jobrolo do with inspection photos?+
Jobrolo links each saved inspection photo to the selected property, lead, or project and keeps its original image, note, capture source, and recorded GPS or location provenance. The Photo Evidence Studio organizes front, elevation, roof, damage, soft-metal, interior, attic, detached, and document views and supports arrows, circles, freehand markup, note pins, section correction, and undo or redo. Optional Quick and Detailed AI review can classify visible evidence, flag uncertainty, and suggest missing photos without deciding storm cause, coverage, code, or engineering conclusions. Full loss-safe offline photo replay is still planned.
Does Jobrolo support door to door canvassing?+
Yes. Canvassing runs as live sessions with map pins, GPS located leads, property measurements, storm research for the neighborhood you are working, and street level memory that persists between visits, so the second knock on a street starts smarter than the first. Leads convert into customers and projects without retyping anything.
Does Jobrolo handle insurance supplements and appraisals?+
Yes. Jobrolo models the restoration claim lifecycle including scope of loss, replacement cost value and actual cash value, recoverable and non recoverable depreciation, supplements, overhead and profit, ordinance and law items, and the appraisal process through umpire and payment closeout.
Can the AI take actions on its own?+
No. Rolo prepares an exact plan and a signed in person approves it before anything is sent, changed, or charged. Every approved action leaves a receipt, so there is always a record of what ran and who said yes.
What happens to the record after a job is done?+
Inside the signed-in company, authorized photos, measurements, documents, claim history, visits, and completed work stay connected to the property across projects. A homeowner-controlled record that follows the address across unrelated companies is the long-term vision, not a live shared database today; that future requires explicit consent and sharing controls.
Do homeowners and subcontractors need their own subscription?+
No. Homeowners, subcontractors, and partner firms join scoped conversations on a specific job at no cost. Only your own company logins count toward your subscription.
Does Jobrolo work in the field without a signal?+
Jobrolo is a progressive web app with an offline shell and loss-safe replay for supported field activity notes. Full offline inspection-photo file replay is still being built, so Jobrolo does not currently promise that a new photo taken with no connection will upload later. The device copy is kept for review when a queued item cannot be safely replayed.
Can my AI assistant talk to Jobrolo directly?+
Yes. Jobrolo runs a public concierge endpoint any AI agent can call to ask about the product. POST a JSON message to jobrolo.com/api/public/entry-chat and Jobrolo answers. The contract is documented for machines at jobrolo.com/llms.txt. It is rate limited, needs no account, and answers product questions only.
What does Jobrolo cost?+
Pricing is shared directly rather than published while Jobrolo is pre launch, through a founding partner program for early companies. Ask on jobrolo.com and you will get a straight answer.
