What is Estimatic.ai?
Estimatic.ai is AI estimating software built into Contractor+ for build and service contractors. Estimatic.ai turns project descriptions and supporting documents into estimates informed by the contractor’s cost book, current supplier prices, and local labor rates. The workflow covers drafting, contractor review, approval, and delivery to the customer, including eSignature without requiring separate signing software.
Estimatic.ai supports construction work such as remodels, repairs, installations, and new builds. Rather than requiring contractors to accept an unchangeable output, Estimatic.ai allows individual estimate lines to be edited or overridden. Saved templates help the resulting estimate match the contractor’s usual format.
What Estimatic.ai can do
Estimatic.ai combines project context with material and labor pricing to prepare a draft estimate. Estimatic.ai can use uploaded documents alongside a written job description, while saved cost books and templates provide business-specific inputs. The resulting draft remains editable so contractors can apply their judgment before sending a bid.
- Estimatic.ai accepts jobsite photos, blueprints, drawings, and competing quotes.
- Estimatic.ai references a contractor’s cost book and saved estimate templates.
- Estimatic.ai searches for current supplier pricing and uses local labor rates.
- Estimatic.ai lets contractors change materials, margins, markup, and individual line items.
- Estimatic.ai supports sending approved estimates for customer eSignature.
How Estimatic.ai works
Estimatic.ai starts with a contractor describing the work and supplying relevant project context. Contractors can upload supporting files before Estimatic.ai builds an estimate using cost book information, supplier pricing, and labor rates. Contractors then review the draft, adjust details, approve the estimate, and send the finished bid to the customer.
Estimatic.ai searches pricing from vendors including Lowe’s, Home Depot, Menards, Ace Hardware, Ferguson Home, and ABC Supply. Estimatic.ai also uses a proprietary labor rate index based on approved estimates and official BLS data. Within Contractor+, estimates connect automatically to CRM records, service requests, the job schedule, and invoicing.
Who Estimatic.ai is for
Estimatic.ai serves build and service contractors who prepare customer bids for construction and trade work. Estimatic.ai supports projects with different materials, labor requirements, and regional cost factors, including remodels and new builds. Contractors who already use cost books and saved templates can supply those resources to preserve their established estimating approach.
- Estimatic.ai helps remodeling contractors draft estimates from project descriptions and drawings.
- Estimatic.ai supports repair and installation estimates using material and labor inputs.
- Estimatic.ai lets contractors revise bid details before sending estimates from the office or a customer’s location.
Estimatic.ai pricing and plans
Estimatic.ai is included within Contractor+ rather than sold as a separate tool on the supplied page. Contractor+ offers a free FREEDOM plan alongside paid subscriptions. The MAX plan is listed at $500 per month and explicitly includes unlimited Estimatic AI usage. The supplied pricing text does not identify AI usage allowances for the other plans.
Estimatic.ai strengths and limitations
Estimatic.ai combines contractor-specific cost information, supporting project files, and editable estimates within an existing contractor management workflow. Estimatic.ai preserves contractor approval rather than treating the generated draft as final. Access depends on Contractor+, however, and unlimited AI usage is explicitly associated with MAX. Contractors comparing lower plans would need clarification about their Estimatic.ai allowances.
