BuildItPros Estimating Platform

Professional estimating software for Northern Arizona trades

Manage your entire estimate workflow — from the first customer inquiry to a signed estimate — without spreadsheets, email threads, or generic quoting tools that don’t understand residential contracting.

For You — The Operator

✦ AI-Assisted Scoping

Hit one button and AI generates a complete draft estimate from the project description and your contact notes — calibrated specifically for Northern Arizona labor rates and material costs across Navajo, Apache, Coconino, and Gila counties.

You review, adjust, and approve everything before it goes to the customer. The AI handles the first draft; you control the final number.

📧 Request Pipeline

New → Contacted → Scoped → Invited → Converted. Log every customer interaction directly on the request. Those notes feed into AI scoping — the more detail you capture, the better your draft estimate.

📋 Estimate Builder

Drag-to-reorder line items, catalog autocomplete, per-line markup, and live total calculation. Tax rates auto-apply from the job site county. Customer notes and internal notes stay separate — internal notes never leave your screen.

📄 PDF Export

Full Estimate — your logo, all line items, pricing, and totals. Scope Summary — same layout but pricing replaced with dashes, for sharing scope before the customer registers. Both carry your business branding.

📍 Job Site Mapping

Enter a street address and city — the county resolves automatically, the correct tax rate is applied, and a satellite map shows the job site and your base locations with driving distance and time calculated.

⛽ Fuel Cost Tracking

Internal job costing — customers never see this. Round-trip fuel cost calculated from your vehicle’s MPG and live Arizona fuel prices updated weekly. Configure your fleet in Settings.

For Your Customers

Easy Request Submission

Customers submit project requests at your dedicated URL — no account required. The form captures their contact info, address, project type, description, timeline, and up to 5 photos.

Free Customer Accounts

When you send an invite, the customer gets a link to create a free account — one click, set a password, done. No subscription, no credit card. Once registered, they see the complete itemized estimate and can accept or decline directly in their browser.

Estimate Teaser View

Before registering, customers see a teaser — project summary, scope of work, and a prompt to create their free account to view full pricing. Shows your thoroughness without revealing the number.

Expiration Reminders

Estimates expire after your configured validity period. Customers receive an automatic reminder email 3 days before expiry so they don’t miss the window.

Simple, Flat Monthly Pricing

No usage-based billing. No per-estimate charges. No surprises.

Security & Privacy

Your data is yours. Here is how it is protected.

  • Complete data isolation. Every estimate, request, and customer record is tagged to your company at the database level. Server-side access controls prevent any other operator from reading or modifying your data — it is architecturally impossible, not just a policy.
  • API keys encrypted at rest. Third-party API keys are encrypted in the database using XSalsa20-Poly1305 symmetric encryption. The encryption key is stored separately from the encrypted data.
  • Unguessable estimate URLs. Customer-facing estimate links use 64-character cryptographically random tokens — not sequential IDs. No customer can guess another customer’s estimate URL.
  • Secure invite tokens. Registration invite links use 48-character tokens with a 7-day expiry. Used tokens are permanently invalidated.
  • Photo upload protection. Customer-submitted photos are validated for actual file content — a malicious file renamed as a JPEG is rejected. Uploads are rate-limited to 10 per IP per hour.
  • Google Maps server-side only. All geocoding and routing calls are made from the server. Your API key is never sent to a browser. Customer IP addresses are never transmitted to Google.
  • AI prompt security. Customer-supplied content is wrapped in delimiters in the AI prompt. The model is instructed to treat it as data only — preventing injection attempts from influencing estimate generation.
  • Private estimate numbers. Numbers are sequential per your account only — they do not reveal how many estimates other operators have created or any relationship to internal system IDs.
