DentQuote AI compared with Mobile Tech RX, DentMate and PDR Mobile
All four apps replace paper estimates. They're built for different kinds of PDR businesses, so the right one depends on how you work. Here's an honest read.
Which fits you
| If you are a… | Look at | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Solo tech who wants estimates out fast | DentQuote AI | Say the damage instead of tapping through menus, then text a link the customer approves on the spot. |
| Shop running detail, tint, wheels and PDR together | Mobile Tech RX | Built as a platform for many recon trades, with scheduling, teams and accounting in one place. |
| Hail crew splitting pay across techs | PDR Mobile | Commission splits by panel or percentage are its headline feature. |
| Simple matrix app for hail and dealer work | DentMate | Straightforward estimating with R&I, splat diagrams and lot walks. |
Where DentQuote AI is different
You talk, it prices. Say "hood, eight dents, quarter size, aluminum" and DentQuote builds the priced lines from your own rate sheet or hail matrix. You check the numbers and send.
The customer side is part of the product. Every estimate is a branded link with photos. Customers approve with a tap, sign, and pay the invoice from the same link.
One plan, one price. Free for three estimates with every feature on, then $29 a month. No tiers to decode.
Keeps working offline. Write estimates with no signal; they sync when you reconnect.
Where the others go further
Mobile Tech RX covers far more than PDR: scheduling, marketing texts, multiple trades and QuickBooks. If you run a multi-service recon company, that breadth is worth paying for.
PDR Mobile is strong on hail-team money: carrier matrices, bundled quotes and automatic commission splits.
DentMate is a focused estimating app with R&I parts, walk-the-lot dealer estimates and supplements.
