The estimating bottleneck

More time reviewing.
Less time re-keying.

01

Bid packages arrive fragmented

Drawings, addenda, schedules, specifications, and deadlines are spread across hundreds of pages.

02

Early takeoff is repetitive

Senior estimators spend valuable time finding the same assembly, scope, and risk information over and over.

03

Unreviewed AI is a liability

Fast output is not useful when the source, measurement basis, and estimator decision are invisible.

A controlled workflow

From document set to
bid-ready thinking.

01 / Upload

Bring the bid package together

Store the project PDFs in a private office workspace, organized by project and ready for analysis.

P3 Accepted C2 Review I1 Excluded
03 / Decide

Review, price, and shape the bid

Your estimator accepts or rejects conditions, applies approved rates, resolves risks, and edits proposal language.

One estimating workspace

Everything needed for
a defensible first pass.

BidPilot is intentionally not an autonomous estimator. It organizes the work, shows its evidence, and gives experienced estimators a faster place to make decisions.

01

Evidence-linked scope extraction

Requirements and conditions stay connected to the source file, page, quote, and measurement basis.

  • Bid dates and requirements
  • Wall and ceiling conditions
  • Confidence and source context

Estimator approval queue

AI-derived conditions remain pending until a person accepts, adjusts, or rejects them.

Your assemblies and rates

Material, labor, waste, and currency come from your approved office price book—not invented AI pricing.

Risks before they become misses

Drawing conflicts, unclear heights, missing assemblies, and unsupported measurements are surfaced for resolution.

05

Proposal language you can edit

Draft scope, exclusions, clarifications, and assumptions from reviewed project evidence.

Built for professional judgment

AI flags.
Your estimator decides.

The fastest wrong answer is still wrong. BidPilot is designed around traceability, review status, and human approval—not black-box automation.

Discuss a pilot
01

No unsupported quantities

Ambiguous scale, geometry, height, or assembly information becomes a review item instead of a guessed number.

02

No invented supplier pricing

Costs are calculated only from the rates your office has entered and approved.

03

No silent commitments

Scope and proposal language stay in draft until the estimator reviews and approves them.

04

Every write is attributable

Project changes, approvals, and risk decisions are recorded in the office audit trail.

Practical questions

Before you upload
the first bid.

Does BidPilot replace an estimator?+

No. It creates a reviewable first pass and keeps approval, pricing, scope decisions, and contractual judgment with your team.

Which trades are supported first?+

The founding workflow focuses on commercial drywall partitions, light-gauge metal framing, insulation, shaftwall, and acoustical ceilings.

How is project information stored?+

Project records live in Cloudflare D1 and uploaded PDFs are stored privately in Cloudflare R2. AI credentials stay server-side.

Can the AI price materials automatically?+

BidPilot prices accepted quantities only against your office’s approved material, labor, and waste rates. It does not invent supplier prices.

How does pilot onboarding work?+

We review your workflow, approve your office users, configure the first assemblies, and validate output against a representative bid package.
