EagleView is the leader in aerial measurement — about 150,000 reports a month, primary measurement source for ~30,000 roofing contractors. What it doesn't do: respond to the lead, write the estimate, follow up on the proposal, or post the install photo. That's the gap Riptide fills. The instant your EagleView report comes back, AI generates a branded estimate with measurements pre-populated and texts the homeowner with a proposal in 5 minutes.
EagleView is the dominant aerial measurement provider in roofing — PremiumReports, QuickSquares, claim reports, satellite imagery. Their measurements are the industry baseline. What EagleView is not: a CRM, a lead-handling system, a follow-up engine, or an estimate engine. The report comes back as a PDF — and what happens next is a productivity gap that Riptide closes.

EagleView stays the measurement source of truth. Riptide turns every report into a closed deal faster.
Each system uses the EagleView API webhook to react to events in real time. When a report is ready, Riptide pulls the measurements, generates the estimate, and starts the lead nurture — all within 5 minutes of the EagleView delivery email landing.
EagleView API fires a webhook the moment a report is delivered. Riptide pulls the measurements (squares, pitch, ridge LF, valley LF, facets), maps them into your branded estimate template, and generates a proposal PDF with line-item pricing.
Once the estimate is generated, AI texts the homeowner with a personalized SMS: their address, the squares measured, the proposal link, and a question to confirm a schedule. Lead engagement happens while EagleView is still emailing the report.
When a new lead lands (form, call, marketplace), AI qualifies and books the inspection. If the homeowner has a confirmed appointment and a valid address, AI auto-orders the EagleView report so the measurements are waiting for the crew.
Hail or hurricane radar trips your service area → Riptide queries past customers in affected zips, prioritizes the ones with severe-event probability, and bulk-orders EagleView claim reports so estimates are ready when homeowners call.
When a proposal is sent (and the homeowner went quiet), AI runs a 7-touch SMS + email sequence over 18 days. Each message references the EagleView measurements, the specific roof, and the proposal terms. Pauses on reply or signature.
After-hours call to your business number → voice AI picks up, qualifies the caller, books the inspection, and triggers an EagleView report order if the address is confirmed. Contact + deal land in your CRM with measurements pre-loaded.
EagleView is your measurement layer. Riptide is the intelligence layer around it. Each system pulls measurements when needed and writes back to your CRM — so nothing goes manual.

From your EagleView account → Account Settings → API Access. We need read access to reports + the ability to register a webhook URL for report.delivered events. We walk you through it on the kickoff call.
So the auto-generated estimate writes back to the right deal record. Standard API key + webhook setup. Takes about 5 minutes per CRM.
One template — your logo, line items, terms, payment options. AI maps EagleView measurements (squares, pitch, ridge LF) to your line items automatically. We tune pricing rails to your region.
For SMS lead responses + voice receptionist. We support all major business phone systems with no number-port required.
You review the first 25 AI-generated estimates and SMS messages. Edit voice/tone for your shop. Riptide learns your phrasing for the lead-to-proposal handoff.
Shadow mode: AI drafts every estimate and message, you approve before send. We turn off shadow mode once you're confident. Daily summary email shows everything handled.
All 8 systems running autonomously alongside EagleView. Standby support for the first 60 days post-launch. Monthly tuning calls included in the engagement.
The same playbook we use to scope every EagleView engagement: webhook setup, branded-estimate-template walkthrough, ROI math on report-to-proposal compression, and a worked example for a 25-50 jobs/mo shop.
I built Riptide. I'm not affiliated with EagleView, and this page is not endorsed or sponsored by EagleView Technologies, Inc. This describes EagleView's public capabilities as I understand them and how a separate AI integration layer can complement what EagleView already does well. Capabilities, pricing, report types, and API specifics change. If I got something wrong, email me at matt@riptideai.co and I'll fix it within 48 hours. EagleView's own developer documentation and product pages are the source of truth for what's natively supported in EagleView itself.
30-min audit on a screenshare. We'll review your EagleView account live, show you exactly which 2-3 systems would compress your report-to-proposal flow hardest, and you walk away with a plan — whether you hire us or not. Sprint engagements start at $2,500.
