Jobba markets a real-time bi-directional API, but nothing is published: no developer portal, no reference docs, no SDK. Access is reserved for paying customers and approved partners; everyone else is pointed at Zapier-style middleware.
Frequently asked questions
Jobba scores D on the API Report Card. Jobba markets a real-time bi-directional API, but nothing is published: no developer portal, no reference docs, no SDK. Access is reserved for paying customers and approved partners; everyone else is pointed at Zapier-style middleware.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Jobba (operated by Jobba Trade Technologies, Inc.) is a cloud-based, all-in-one business management platform built exclusively for roofing contractors. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois (8700 W.
Construction, specifically commercial and residential roofing contractors, with extra emphasis on commercial service-and-maintenance roofing (recurring inspections, multi-property service work) alongside reroof and new-construction jobs. Sales reps capture leads, run inspections with mobile checklists and offline photo capture, generate aerial-measurement-driven estimates and eSigned proposals, and route opportunities through the CRM pipeline.
Medium within roofing. Jobba is a recognized but second-tier player relative to AccuLynx and JobNimbus, with ~4.0/5 across Capterra, GetApp, SoftwareAdvice, and SelectHub (tens of verified reviews each, not hundreds).
Jobba holds the operational core of a roofing contractor's business: every lead and homeowner/property-owner contact, full sales pipeline and estimate history, aerial measurement reports, signed contracts and proposals, inspection checklists and field photos, crew dispatch schedules and time records, materials/inventory ledgers, service and maintenance contracts for commercial property portfolios, invoices, payment history, and QuickBooks-synced financials.
Mature mid-stage. Founded in 2010, Jobba has 15+ years of incumbency and a feature breadth comparable to category leaders, but it is widely characterized in reviews as having a steeper learning curve and a less polished UX than newer entrants like Roofr.
No public API documentation portal, integrators must engage Jobba directly to get access and reference material, with no developer self-serve. Bi-directional API is marketed as the integration mechanism but customers must rely on third-party connector services (LeadRebel, Zapier) for most non-native integrations.

Common alternatives include AccuLynx, JobNimbus, Roofr, Leap, CompanyCam, Jobber. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Jobba API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Jobba data. See the Jobba integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/jobba-api.
