  1. STEP 1

    Upload an invoice or quote

    Take a photo or upload a PDF of your HVAC invoice.

  2. STEP 2

    We read it

    We pull out the total, service, equipment, date and city. You check every field.

  3. STEP 3

    You choose

    Keep it private, or contribute an anonymized price. Your name and address are never published.

  4. STEP 4

    We verify

    Contributed prices are checked before they count. Duplicates and edited files are rejected.

  5. STEP 5

    Compare

    See how your price sits against verified local transactions, with the sample size shown.

When there isn't enough data

We look at your city first, then your region, then Ontario. If there still aren't enough verified transactions, we show no price at all rather than guess.
