Costs for your area, not national averages
Clear Estimates includes 12,000+ cost items with material and labor rates for 350 U.S. areas, updated every quarter. It's the same cost data Remodeling Magazine uses for its Cost vs. Value Report.
You can change any price, add your own parts and save your own templates. Your estimates, your numbers.
AI that builds from real costs
Describe the job in plain language and the AI Estimator builds a first draft: it picks the parts, and the Part Library prices them for your area. When you review the draft, you see where every price came from.
Then finish it like any estimate: add parts, change any line, set your markup. It's included on every plan. On Pro, attach photos, plans and documents, and the AI customizes library parts or creates custom ones when nothing in the Part Library fits.
