AI Estimate Builder
Just tell Dave what the job is. The AI will instantly draft a detailed, professional estimate using your saved line items and pricing.
Get sign-off instantly
Clients can review, approve, and sign your estimates directly from their phone. No printing or scanning required.
Give clients options worth paying more for.
Put upgrades and extra work right in the estimate. Clients can compare their choices, see the price, and decide before they approve. No separate quotes for every possibility.
Client options for upgrades
Offer a choice of materials, finishes, or packages within a category. Give each option its own scope and price, then let the client pick one.
Decking material
- Pressure-treated wood
- Composite decking upgrade
Optional categories for extra work
Make a whole category optional, including its labor and materials. Clients can add it or leave it out, so extra work stays separate from the base job.
Add stair lighting
Fixtures, wiring, and installation
Included by the client
The total reflects their selections. When the estimate is approved, those choices are saved with it so you know exactly what to build and bill for.

When the scope changes, Dave keeps it clean. Create change orders in seconds, get them approved, and automatically update the project total.
