You're stuck winning only what your overworked estimators can crank out. But estimates drag on forever, cost a fortune, and cap your bids.
Old School Bidding Is Bleeding You Dry
You're not losing bids because you're pricey: you're getting crushed because you're too slow or not sharp enough.
Time You Don’t Have
Manual estimates devour 4 to 40 hours per bid. That's prime time your team could blast through strategies or slash change orders with blueprint mastery.
Capped by Bandwidth
You want explosive growth, but human estimators create a rock-hard ceiling. No automation means no instant full-project builds or ALT bids, your bid machine stalls out.
Costly Mistakes
One overlooked quantity, code slip, or pricing blunder torches your margins—or tanks the entire bid. Skip the specs and your handing victories to the competition.
