Frequently asked questions about Estimatic AI
How is Estimatic AI different from tools like ChatGPT or other AI estimate generators?
Estimatic AI pulls from your real cost book, current supplier pricing, and local labor rates to build accurate, client-ready bids that match how you quote jobs. Unlike generic tools, it references your specific data and trade practices to generate estimates.
Can I still control or edit the estimate after Estimatic AI creates it?
Yes. Estimatic AI provides a complete draft in minutes, but you retain full control to review, adjust, and approve line items before sending. The tool shows its work, allowing you to tweak margins, materials, or markup as needed.
Can Estimatic AI read job photos and blueprints?
Yes. You can upload jobsite photos, blueprints, or drawings when creating an estimate, and Estimatic AI will use them to generate a more accurate bid. This helps capture details that might be missed in a text description.
Will Estimatic AI match my usual estimate format?
Yes. You can use your saved templates and upload your cost book so the final output aligns with your typical estimating style. The tool does not force a rigid layout, ensuring consistency with your workflow.
What data sources does Estimatic AI use for pricing?
Estimatic AI searches for real-time pricing from vendors like Lowe’s, Home Depot, Menards, Ace Hardware, Ferguson Home, and ABC Supply. It also uses a proprietary labor rate index based on approved estimates and official BLS data to ensure accuracy.
Is Estimatic AI a standalone tool or part of Contractor+?
Estimatic AI is fully built into Contractor+, meaning your estimates automatically connect to your CRM, service requests, job schedule, and invoicing. It is included with your regular Contractor+ subscription.
