  • Jobber and Housecall Pro offer no-lead-fee bookings for eligible U.S. customers, while Angi directs to its profiles

Qualification varies by platform. Jobber requires a paid subscription, Google Business Profile sync, and assigned booking forms, while Housecall Pro auto-enrolls professionals without additional steps. Angi’s role remains unclear on fees for AI-generated quote requests, though its annual report notes pros pay for consumer matches. Businesses must verify their eligibility through their respective platforms, as Google’s selection criteria remain unspecified. ServiceTitan is slated for future integration.
