Build contractor estimates that win the job
Price labor, pull materials with real price history, stack your margins, and send a professional estimate as a PDF, Word document, or spreadsheet. Free to start — you don't need an account until you save.
How it works
Price the labor
Use effort presets or rate × hours. Your hourly rates and presets carry across every estimate, so two jobs quoted a month apart stay consistent.
Pull real material prices
A catalog with append-only price history and 30- and 90-day averages. Estimates snapshot the price the day you add it, so a catalog update never quietly rewrites a quote you already sent.
Stack your margins
Overhead, contingency, and profit are an ordered list that compounds in the order you set. Keep any of them off the customer copy — your totals stay exact either way.
Send something that looks professional
Every estimate exports as a PDF, a Word document, or an Excel spreadsheet — so you can send it, edit it, or hand it to a client who wants the numbers in a sheet.
- ✓PDF, Word, and Excel export on every plan
- ✓Shareable client link your customer can accept or decline
- ✓Change orders tracked as their own document, not edits to the original
- ✓Your logo, business name, and license number on the customer copy (Pro)
AI that drafts and checks your work
Describe the job in a sentence and get a full draft — labor broken out by task, materials matched to the catalog, and the things first drafts forget: permits, disposal, delivery, waste factor. Then run a review before you send it, and it will tell you what's missing.
Draft
Turn a one-line description of the job into a structured estimate you can edit.
Review
A second pass over a finished estimate that flags what's missing or mispriced.
Price check
Verify a material price against a live web search when the catalog looks stale.

Job Costing After the Job Closes: Did You Actually Make Money?
Most contractors find out if a job was profitable by checking the bank balance. Here's the 20-minute post-job review that tells you for real — and what to do with what you learn.
Drywall Installation Cost: Pricing by Square Foot and Finish Level
What drywall installation actually costs by finish level and room type — hang vs. tape vs. finish, plus the texture, insulation, and disposal costs a per-square-foot number leaves out.
Whole-House Repipe Cost: PEX vs. Copper Pricing by Home Size
What a whole-house repipe actually costs by pipe material and home size — plus the wall-access, permit, and fixture-reconnect costs that turn a repipe into a bigger job.
