About. Hover sends a capture request (a link by SMS or email) to a homeowner, adjuster or other person at the property, who scans it with the Hover phone app. Hover turns the photos into a 3D model with roof, exterior or interior measurements (PDF, JSON, XLSX, ESX and more). OAuth REST API with a sandbox and a first-party MCP server; per-project prices are published.

Price. Starter, pay per project, first 3 projects free: exterior $59/$99/$139, roof $29/$49/$69, interior $29/$59/$89 (simple/average/complex). Pro ($999/yr) takes $20 off each project (from $9); Business ($2,999/yr) is flat $79 exterior, $39 roof, $49 interior. Enterprise is custom. Expedited delivery $39/project on Starter, $19 on Pro and Business. Upgrade price for a Capture Only job is available by API (hover.to/pricing).

Coverage. Hover publishes no list of covered countries. Job addresses carry a country field; the Terms bar use in US-embargoed countries. Capture needs a supported mobile device and the Hover app.

Timing. Pricing page, 'Typical turnaround time': 12 hours (Starter), 4 hours (Pro, Business), 2 hours (Enterprise); expedited roof measurements 'typically delivered within 1 hour' and full exterior within 90 minutes. The clock starts once the person at the property has scanned it, which Hover does not control.

Licence. The Terms of Use (posted 2026-05-11) give a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited permission to use Hover Data (measurements, models, floorplans) only for the subject property or project and for personal or internal business purposes. Selling, licensing, distributing or otherwise making Hover Data available to third parties is banned, as is using Hover Data to train software or algorithms. The user owns the photos it submits (User Data) but grants Hover a perpetual, transferable licence to them, including for training Hover's models, and assigns Hover any Hover Data derived from them.
