Estimating software for electricians, plumbers and HVAC contractors
A single trade, jobs that look alike, and a price book that should do most of the work.
The sore spot
Getting an estimate out the same evening, with no pricing mistake.
What changes for you
- Price book with reusable assemblies — one lump-sum line, or expanded component by component.
- Custom margin per item, on top of the category margin; the book learns from your estimates and flags a variance when you correct a price by hand.
- CSV import of your supplier price list, bulk export and adjustment; history of every price.
- Estimate built straight from the book, without going through the AI — or with it, for less common work.
- Labour rates under the CCQ collective agreements in the price book; the hourly-rate calculator to set them.
The modules doing the work

Frequently asked questions
Can I import my supplier price list?
Yes, in a single CSV file — items, units, costs — into your private price book, with bulk export and adjustment for price increases. Every price keeps its history, and the book flags a variance when you correct an amount by hand in an estimate.
Do I need the AI to write an estimate?
No. An estimate is built straight from the price book: search from the builder, assemblies, quantities. The AI is there for less common work, when a starting structure saves time — it stays optional.
