Tired of Late Nights with Blueprints? There’s a Smarter Way to Estimate.

Tired of Late Nights with Blueprints? There’s a Smarter Way to Estimate.

If you’re in construction, you know the drill. A new project comes in, and out come the blueprints, the scale ruler, and the strong coffee. You spend hours, sometimes days, poring over every detail, measuring, counting, and double-checking, all while knowing that one small mistake could cost you thousands down the line. It’s stressful, it’s slow, and frankly, it’s not the part of the job you love.

We believe your time is better spent on-site, managing your team and building great things. That’s why we created ProBuild AI to take the headache out of estimating and bring real accuracy and speed to your pre-construction process.

From a Stack of Plans to a Shopping List in Minutes

Think about the last Bill of Materials (BOM) you put together. How long did it take? With ProBuild AI, you can get it done in the time it takes to finish your coffee.

You simply upload your blueprints, and our AI scans every page. It reads the dimensions, understands the notes, and identifies all the specifications. It then translates all that complex information into a simple, structured materials list, perfectly organized by trade (foundation, framing, plumbing, finishes you name it).

You don't just get a random list of parts; you get a clear, practical breakdown that your subcontractors and suppliers can work with immediately.

Costing You Can Actually Trust

A materials list is useless without accurate pricing. ProBuild AI connects your list to the real world by attaching up-to-date, localized costs to every single item.

• Truly Local Pricing: We know that materials and labor don't cost the same in Pretoria as they do in Cape Town. The system automatically uses local supplier databases and wage rates to ensure your estimate is relevant to your specific area.
• Always Up-to-Date: You've mentioned before the need to account for rising material costs. That's a huge challenge. ProBuild AI is designed for this, constantly refreshing its price data. This means your bid is protected from those sudden price hikes from suppliers that can destroy your profit margin.
• Get Real Quotes: You can even invite your preferred vendors or subcontractors directly to the platform to submit their quotes, ensuring your numbers are not just estimates they’re market-verified.

The result is a fully-priced, professional estimate you can confidently present to a client or take to the bank.

What This Really Means for You

Whether you're a general contractor or a specialist trade, this all boils down to a few simple, powerful benefits:

• Speed: Get your bids out the door in minutes, not days.
• Accuracy: Stop guessing. Every quantity is pulled directly from the blueprints.
• Consistency: Get reliable, repeatable results on every single project.
• Trust: Show clients a transparent, detailed breakdown that builds immediate confidence.

More Than Just an Estimating Tool

Because this is all part of a connected system, you can instantly use your data to generate project timelines, manage bids with your subs, and export professional reports for clients. It’s not just about faster estimates; it’s about a smarter, smoother workflow from start to finish.

In an industry where timelines are tight and margins are thin, ProBuild AI gives you the edge you need to bid smarter, win more work, and build with confidence.
