The spreadsheet problem

Spreadsheets are flexible, but that flexibility introduces hidden errors that cost time, margin, and confidence.

  • ✕ Broken calculations: formulas are easily overwritten when rows are copied or moved.
  • ✕ Inconsistent data: old rates, mismatched markups, or missing line items.
  • ✕ Version confusion: multiple files across emails, folders, and shared drives.
  • ✕ No safeguards: anyone can change anything, often without visibility or traceability.

How estimator.software reduces risk

Structured where it matters, so your estimates remain accurate, consistent, and controlled.

  • ✔ Protected calculations: totals, markups, and summaries stay intact.
  • ✔ Built-in validation: required fields, quantities, and pricing are checked automatically.
  • ✔ Centralised pricing: products and rates are maintained once and reused everywhere.
  • ✔ Live calculations: totals update instantly as you work.
  • ✔ Revision history: clear tracking of changes and issued submissions.
  • ✔ Consistent output: professional, branded PDFs 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, including setting your company details, uploading a logo, and adding your first clients, categories and products.

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.
