Cloud-based sales, digital takeoff, and estimating software for remodelers, trade contractors, and home builders -- combines plan-file takeoff/measurement tools with a 200,000+ item cost catalog (including Home Depot SKUs), preloaded labor/sub/equipment rates, assembly templates, and e-signature proposal generation.

Agent-hostile

2.8 /5 composite score

Transparent, low-cost tiered pricing (free 5-project tier through $150/mo unlimited) and a self-serve, no-IT-required signup make it an easy fit for small remodelers/builders, but it is GUI-only with no API/CLI and no confirmed third-party integrations (e.g. accounting software).
