Window contractors on Command
close before the measure,
and deliver flawless installs.
Built for window replacement - not adapted from generic software. Satellite window count, energy rebate auto-calculation, lead-time-aware install scheduling, and configuration complexity pricing. Average job $400–$1,200/window. All configured before you go live.
The problems most software ignores.
You can't price it until you measure it. But you drive out to measure it before they've committed.
Window replacement requires accurate rough opening measurements before you can finalize pricing. Most contractors run a free measure before any commitment - burning hours per lead. Your competitor sends a range estimate first and runs the measure at signing.
Orders take 4–8 weeks. The crew slot you held is already gone.
Custom window orders have long lead times. Holding a crew slot for an 8-week-out install without a reliable tracking system means double bookings, gaps, and crews showing up for jobs where the product hasn't arrived. Each scheduling mistake costs a full crew day.
The homeowner wants their energy rebate. You don't have the documentation.
Federal and state energy efficiency rebates require specific product certification documentation, install dates, and energy rating records. Homeowners expect you to handle this. Without a documentation system, you lose the post-install relationship when the rebate falls through.
12 windows quoted. The bay window, the egress, and the 3-hour brick mold job weren't.
Standard replacement windows price simply. But egress windows, bay configurations, brick mold, and structural headers add significant labor and material complexity. Flat-rate per-window pricing bleeds margin on jobs that deserve a premium.
Before Command. After Command.
The difference isn't a feature list. It's the moment your sales rep closes a 12-window job from their laptop - with a rebate number attached - before a competitor even books the site visit.

From request to install - 5 steps.
The full window replacement workflow, from first call to completed install, handled in one system.
Homeowner requests replacement windows
Single window, full home replacement, or storm damage - Command's intake handles all three request types. AI Phone Agent captures the request 24/7, qualifies the job, and logs it without anyone in your office touching a phone.
Satellite counts windows, estimates standard sizes
Command pulls satellite imagery and property records to count windows and estimate standard rough opening sizes based on property age and architectural style. No site visit required to generate a credible range estimate.
Energy efficiency grade selected with instant price delta
Homeowner or your sales rep selects glass package - standard, low-E, or triple pane. The estimate updates in real time with the price delta for each option. No separate quote required. The upgrade conversation happens in one session.
Energy rebate eligibility auto-calculated
Command cross-references the property address with the utility provider and active state rebate programs. Rebate amount is shown directly in the estimate - net cost after rebate displayed alongside gross cost. Most homeowners have never seen this done at the estimate stage.
Custom order placed at acceptance, install scheduled around lead time
When the homeowner accepts, Command places the order with your supplier and pulls the expected lead time. The install slot is held in the schedule and locked once delivery is confirmed. No manual order calls, no scheduler managing two separate systems.
6 things built for windows.
Measurement-based estimate engine
Homeowner provides rough opening dimensions via a guided intake flow. Command builds a per-window estimate by size, configuration type, and series - with a professional range sent immediately and a confirmed price after the measure.
Install crew scheduling with order tracking
Every job's install slot is linked to the order tracking status. Crew assignments update automatically when delivery windows shift. Double bookings and gap days drop to zero because the system knows where every order stands.
Energy rebate documentation
Every install generates a certification package - product specs, energy ratings, install date, and homeowner info - formatted for federal and state rebate programs. You deliver the rebate paperwork at job close. It's a differentiator competitors can't match.
Configuration complexity pricing
Bay windows, egress cutouts, brick mold, and structural headers are priced as line items - not absorbed into a flat per-window rate. Your estimates are thorough and your margin is protected.
Financing presentation engine
High-ticket window replacement jobs close more often with financing options presented at the estimate. Command generates monthly payment options from your financing partners and includes them in the estimate automatically.
Post-install follow-up and referral automation
Homeowners who replaced windows are primed for door upgrades, siding, and insulation within 12 months. Automated post-install sequences surface the right offer at the right time - and capture referrals while the job satisfaction is fresh.
A real estimate. Line by line.
Command doesn't produce "get a quote" placeholders. Homeowners see a complete, itemized estimate - with the rebate baked in - before a single site visit.
Simonton 5500 Series
Most window companies leave the rebate to the customer.
Command calculates it at the estimate - showing the net cost after rebate makes the decision easier and closes faster. Most homeowners have never had a window company show them the rebate number before they signed. You're the first one who did.
Average rebate shown at point-of-estimate: $320–$680 per home. That's the number that tilts an undecided homeowner. And it costs you nothing to show it - Command calculates it automatically from the address and utility provider database.

Questions window companies actually ask.
How does Command estimate window sizes without measuring on-site?
Satellite window count and property records - age, square footage, architectural style - are used to estimate standard rough opening sizes. This generates a credible range estimate the homeowner can act on. The confirmed price is issued after a measure appointment before the order is placed. By that point, the homeowner has already accepted the range and committed to the process.
Does Command automatically calculate energy rebates?
Yes - Command maintains a database of utility provider programs and active state rebate programs covering all major markets. The rebate calculation runs automatically when an estimate is built, using the property address to identify the applicable program. The net cost after rebate is shown directly in the estimate alongside the gross cost. No separate rebate worksheet, no homeowner research required.
How does custom window lead time affect scheduling?
At estimate acceptance, Command places the order with the supplier and pulls the expected lead time automatically. An install slot is held in the schedule but marked as pending confirmation. When delivery is confirmed, the slot locks and the crew is notified. Homeowner receives an updated confirmation. No manual coordination between your sales team, your scheduler, and your supplier portal.
Can Command handle storm window and impact glass pricing?
Yes - Command includes a separate pricing matrix for impact-rated glass by wind zone. Florida, Gulf Coast, and other high-wind markets are covered with the correct product specs and pricing tiers. Permit requirements for impact glass in applicable jurisdictions are included in the estimate flow. Storm damage jobs are handled as a separate intake type with insurance documentation support.
