Buildxact
Residential construction estimating and project management platform
Cloud-based SaaS platform designed specifically for residential builders, remodelers, and contractors. Integrates estimating, digital takeoff, project scheduling, job management, and site coordination in a single unified workflow from initial estimate through final invoice.
Why This Tool Exists
Residential builders and remodelers spend 2-3 hours per project manually creating takeoffs and estimates, juggling multiple disconnected spreadsheets, accounting software, and job management tools. When project scopes change or costs shift, estimates become frozen at contract signing and must be manually updated, creating inconsistencies and delays. Teams lack visibility across estimating, scheduling, and site coordination, leading to communication gaps and rework.
Unified platform automates takeoff and estimating using AI-assisted digital tools and pre-built material pricing libraries. Estimates flow automatically into live job management with real-time scope and cost updates. Mobile app (Onsite) connects office and site crews. Integrates with QuickBooks, Xero, and MYOB for seamless accounting workflows. Regional labor and material pricing keeps estimates competitive.
