Everything you need to produce accurate, consistent estimates

Built for speed and reliability, focused on the estimator’s daily workflow.

Bulk client import

Import clients and contacts in one go to get started quickly.

Custom categories

Create your own estimate categories that match your scope.

Bulk product/scope upload

Load products/scope into categories and keep purchase pricing current.

Quick pricing updates

Adjust purchase prices and markups in seconds. Manually override pricing if needed.

Markups on materials

PDF submissions

Future features included

Current paid members automatically get new features as released.

The spreadsheet problem

Excel is flexible, but that flexibility creates hidden errors that cost time and margin.

  • ✕ Accidental formula breaks: when cells are overwritten or rows are moved.
  • ✕ Copy-paste drift: old rates, mismatched markups, missing lines.
  • ✕ Version chaos: confusion across email threads and shared drives.
  • ✕ No guardrails: anyone can change anything, often without an audit trail.

How estimator.software eliminates errors

Structured where it matters, so your numbers stay correct and consistent.

  • ✔ Locked calculations: line totals, markups and summaries cannot be broken.
  • ✔ Field validation: numbers, units of measure and required fields are checked before saving.
  • ✔ Single source of truth: products, rates and markups are updated once and applied everywhere.
  • ✔ Live totals: all calculations update instantly so inconsistencies are visible immediately.
  • ✔ Revision control: clean history of changes and submissions is always available.
  • ✔ Consistent outputs: polished PDFs on your letterhead every time.

How it works

Step 1

Get started with the setup wizard

When you first sign up, the guided setup wizard walks you through the essentials — setting your company details, uploading a logo, and adding your first clients, categories, and products. You’ll be ready to estimate in minutes.

Step 2

Build and price your estimate

Enter quantities and scope into spreadsheet-style tables. Update purchase pricing, apply markups on materials, or use $/m² rates where helpful. Live totals keep everything in check as you go.

Step 3

Generate your submission

Once the estimate is locked, select your templates for tender letters, terms, and inclusions. Export a polished PDF on your letterhead, ready to send to your client.
