Pitch Finder

Set your phone on a rafter and you’ve got your roof pitch. Can’t get into the attic? Point the camera at the roofline from the yard. Either way, you walk away with a stamped photo that’s ready for your report.

Made for home and wind-mitigation inspectors. Works on iPhone and Android, and it doesn’t cost a thing.

Two ways to get your reading.

Most of the time you’ll be in the attic. Sometimes you can’t be. Pitch Finder has you covered either way.

In the attic · The one we trust

Set your phone on a rafter.

Lay the long edge of your phone along a rafter, or press the back flat against the roof deck. The app figures out how you’re holding it and reads the pitch straight off the structure. No guesswork.

From the ground · Quick estimate

Point it at the roofline.

No attic access? Stand square to the gable, line up the on-screen guide with the slope of the roof, and snap a photo with the reading right on it.

One honest heads-up: the camera gives you an estimate, and it shifts depending on where you’re standing. When you can get to a rafter or the roof deck, do that. Your report will thank you.

It all stays on your phone.

We built Pitch Finder the way we’d want it ourselves. No account, no ads, and nobody looking over your shoulder.

Read the privacy policy
  • No account, no login, no signal needed. Measure and save from the middle of a dead zone and it works fine.
  • Your readings live in the app. If you save an image to Photos, that copy follows your phone’s usual backup and sync settings.
  • No ads. No tracking. Nothing gets sent to us.
  • You share when you want to, and only what you want to. One favor: export the readings you care about before you switch phones or delete the app. We can’t get them back for you, because we never had them.

A couple more tools you might like.

Things people ask us.

Is Pitch Finder really free?

Yep, all of it. Both ways of measuring, the stamped photos, and Precision Reports.

Do I need to make an account?

Nope. Download it and start measuring. There’s nothing to sign up for and no password to forget.

What if I don’t have a signal?

You’re fine. Measuring and saving both work offline, so attics and rural lots are no problem. You’d only need a connection to open a link or share through an online service. Location is a nice-to-have, not a must.

Is the camera reading as accurate as the attic?

Honestly, no. The camera gives you an estimate, and it changes with where you stand. If you can get your phone onto a rafter or the roof deck, that’s the reading to trust.

Where do my readings go?

They stay in the app, on your phone. Any image you save to Photos is a separate copy and follows your phone’s backup settings. Before you switch phones or delete the app, export anything you want to keep.

What’s a Precision Report?

It’s a saved attic reading laid over a photo of the house, so the pitch, method, time, and location all land on one image you can hand to a client or an agency. Open a saved attic reading, tap Create Precision Report, and you’re there. Just check what the organization you’re sending it to needs.
