Detailed estimate with line items, totals, and margin in seconds.

Real-World Use Case

The Problem: Estimating is the most time-consuming non-billable activity for contractors. A bathroom renovation estimate takes 2-3 hours of manual measurement, material research, and calculating — time that should be spent on billable work.

Before

  • Measure manually, calculate on paper
  • 2-3 hours building estimate in Word
  • 5-6 estimates/week max — limited by admin

After

  • Snap a photo — AI detects & calculates
  • Complete estimate in under 60 seconds
  • 15-20 estimates/week — limited by site walks
