CheckIT Estimate • Pre-Con — What will it cost?
Your estimating software prices the job from a database. Your last twenty jobs know better.
Every invoice you've verified, every quote you've leveled, every change order you've reconciled — that's what your work actually costs. Not a national cost database. Not last year's rule of thumb. CheckIT Estimate will build your next bid from your own cost reality, so you win the work you can deliver profitably and walk away from the work priced to lose.
In scoping with contractors now • Ships 2027 • Same engine as Invoice and RFQ
The estimate was off before the job started.
Database prices aren't your prices
National cost data doesn't know your suppliers, your market, or the rate creep on your last three jobs. You're bidding with someone else's numbers.
Your real costs are trapped in old PDFs
What you actually paid lives in a thousand invoices nobody has time to mine. So it never makes it back into the next bid.
The margin you bid isn't the margin you collect
Estimate high, lose the job. Estimate low, win the loss. Without a loop between what you bid and what you paid, you're guessing at the line where profit lives.
How it will work
The engine has been learning your costs all along.
Every document you run through CheckIT Invoice and CheckIT RFQ teaches the engine what materials, equipment, and labor actually cost you — line by line, job by job, month by month.
CheckIT Estimate is where that pays off: estimates built on your own verified cost history. The longer you've been on the engine, the sharper your bids get. That's the whole plan.
We're scoping Estimate with contractors, not for them.
We build the same way we built Invoice: inside real construction businesses until it just works. Design partners get direct input on what Estimate does first, early access when it ships, and founding-partner pricing. In return we ask for honest feedback and a look at how you estimate today.
No commitment. A conversation with the founders, not a sales call.
The fastest way to a better estimate in 2027? Start feeding the engine in 2026.
Every invoice you verify with CheckIT Invoice today becomes cost history your estimates draw on later. Start now. The engine compounds.
