Limited pipeline and deal management features
Skip trace credits feel expensive and run out fast
No AI to help analyze deals or score leads
Basic CRM that doesn't match dedicated tools
No offline mode for areas with spotty service

Why Investors Switch to FlipMantis
D4D should be free
Driving for dollars is how you find deals. We give it to you free forever. No 7-day trial, no credit card required.
AI that learns your buy box
The Mantis automatically scores every property you find against your criteria. DealMachine makes you analyze everything manually.
True offline mode
Rural areas? Spotty service? Our app works completely offline and syncs when you're back online. Never lose a lead.
More skip traces, less money
Our Starter plan ($49/mo) includes 250 skip traces. That's 5x more than DealMachine's 50, at half the price.
“I switched from DealMachine because the offline mode actually works. I was losing leads in rural areas before. Plus the AI scoring is a game-changer.”
