Site measurements to customer-ready quotes, without the spreadsheets
Custom estimating, takeoff and quoting systems for contractors whose pricing depends on measurements and material math. One web-based system your office team uses every day.
*Paid audit from $1,000 · 5–7 working days · you keep the prototype and written build specification.
Where estimating eats your margin
Estimates, purchasing and scheduling usually live in separate files. That's where time and money leak.
Slow Estimates
Measurements, takeoffs and quote PDFs are built by hand in spreadsheets. Typically 2–4 hours per prospect, and the competitor who replies first often wins.
Material Waste
Rule-of-thumb buffers turn into over-ordering, and material leaves the yard without landing on a specific job ledger.
Disconnected Jobs
Estimates, purchase orders and crew schedules don't share data, so the numbers stop matching as soon as site work starts.
Built around your pricing logic, not a generic template
From site measurement to approved quote and material list, without retyping.
Measurement-based estimating
Enter the roof footprint (from drawings or an aerial report) and pitch. Get squares with waste, materials, labor and a bid total, with the math shown.
Customer-ready quotes & e-signature (add-on)
Branded proposals with your own contract terms, generated straight from the approved takeoff. Add-ons, quoted separately: client and partner portals, e-signature, extra integrations, offline mode, optimized 2D nesting.
Material lists for purchasing
Export a supplier-ready material order straight from the approved takeoff, ensuring your purchasing department orders the exact quantities needed.
Job and margin dashboard
Job progress, crew labor hours and gross margin in one unified view, built around the key operational metrics your leadership team actually tracks.
Roofing takeoff engine: footprint and pitch to customer-ready quote
Built for a commercial roofing contractor in the US. Enter the roof footprint (from drawings or an aerial report) and pitch. Get squares with waste, materials, labor and a bid total, with the math shown.
Custom software isn't always the answer
We will tell you honestly whether you need custom code or should stay with an off-the-shelf platform.
Build custom if…
- Your prices come from non-standard mathematical formulas: cutting and nesting of profiles or glass, structural metal, project-specific pitch factors, or custom price lists.
- Your measurement-to-quote steps are unique and no off-the-shelf template covers your field workflow.
- You are tired of paying expensive monthly per-seat fees for crew members who only log in occasionally.
Buy off-the-shelf if…
- Your quotes follow standard cookie-cutter per-square or flat-rate pricing without proprietary fabrication rules.
- You have a small 2–3 person crew and existing tools like JobNimbus or AccuLynx already fit how you work.
- Your business process is still changing every month and you do not yet have a settled estimating formula.
How it works: from audit to a working system
A low-risk structured progression where you see and verify interactive screens before code development begins.
Operations Audit
Workflow bottleneck mapping (5–7 working days). You get a clickable core-flow prototype (5–6 screens) and a written fixed-price build specification. 100% credited toward a Custom CRM build if started within 60 days.
Interactive Prototype Review
Check the workflow and sample calculations in a clickable prototype before you commit to the build.
Fixed-Scope Build
A focused micro-system (like the Roofing Takeoff Engine) takes 2–4 weeks ($5k–$8k). A core operational CRM (Phase 1 Release) takes 6–12 weeks ($15k–$35k). Live working demos every 1–2 weeks with fast async feedback loops to keep your launch date on track.
Release & Code Handover
Production deployment, team onboarding, and complete Git repository handover. Optional month-to-month care from $500/mo.
Connects to the tools you already use
Integrations are scoped transparently per project.
Frequently asked questions
Clear answers on costs, code ownership, job-site mobility, and integrations.
