Quotrr vs Yelp
Quotrr / Yelp
Yelp monetizes your presence with advertising and controls which reviews show up. Quotrr puts verified, non-deletable Props on your record and charges a flat fee.
Yelp is a consumer review platform that contractors use as a passive profile or as a paid advertising channel. Reviews are subject to Yelp's algorithm, which can filter or suppress them without explanation, and the platform sells ad space back to the businesses it hosts. Quotrr's Props are attached to signed, completed jobs and cannot be removed by the platform or the contractor. Your Quotrr Score is calculated on a published formula, not a black-box filter.

| Review permanence | Props are non-deletable and tied to completed signed jobs | Reviews can be filtered or removed by Yelp's algorithm at any time |
| Review sourcing | Auto-requested on job completion, mirrored to Google, tied to a Verified Outcome | Homeowners leave reviews voluntarily; no job verification |
| Reputation score | Quotrr Score 0 to 100 with a published formula | Star average, no public formula, susceptible to fake reviews |

Where Quotrr wins
- Every Prop is attached to a real, verified job. Yelp has no way to confirm a reviewer hired you.
- No ad budget is required. Your Score grows from doing good work.
- Your reputation data is portable. It does not live on Yelp's servers.
Where Yelp honestly wins
- Consumer brand recognition. Many homeowners search Yelp before hiring anyone.
- A free basic presence. You can list on Yelp at no cost and receive some inbound inquiries.
- Wide category coverage across virtually every service type.
We would rather tell you the truth than lose your trust on day two.
Pricing, compared
A basic Yelp profile is free, but the platform consistently nudges contractors toward paid advertising with monthly budgets that start around $300 and scale from there. The actual value of that spend varies widely by trade and market. Quotrr Premium is $5 per week or $150 per year, requires no ad budget, and delivers verified Props that mirror to Google automatically.

Common questions
Why would Yelp filter a real review I earned?
Yelp uses an algorithm to decide which reviews are shown, and it does not explain its decisions. Reviews from accounts with little activity are commonly filtered.
Do Quotrr Props show up anywhere besides the Quotrr app?
Yes. Props are automatically mirrored to your Google Business Profile, so the review count where homeowners actually search goes up.
Can a competitor or unhappy client delete one of my Props?
No. Props are non-deletable by anyone, including the contractor and Quotrr. The record of the verified job stands permanently.
Is Quotrr free to start?
Yes. The free core tier includes the ability to run jobs and collect Props. Premium adds advanced reporting, Quinn AI, and priority features.
Can I respond to reviews on Quotrr the way I can on Yelp?
Props are tied to verified job records, so the context is already there. Response and follow-up features are on the roadmap for Premium accounts.
