For remodeling contractors
AI Estimator
Contractors told us they were losing bids because someone else delivered first. Here’s what changed when they let the AI Estimator build the first draft, and why they still control every line item.

“I just opened it up to do an estimate, and I got surprised by your AI. It makes me more money than when I do it myself.”
“Cuts estimate time in half. Invaluable tool to have as sometimes I could spend several hours on an estimate depending on complexity of the job.”
“Love it as it catches all the unforeseen things that just fly under the radar on normal estimates.”
“I also like the new AI takeoffs. They save me so much time! And honestly they add stuff that I normally wouldn't have added manually, so they help me make more money as well as time. The price seemed high to me at first as it reoccurs every month, but I soon realized it pays for itself after the first job.”
Daniel is a remodeler. For years, the routine was the same: a full day on the jobsite, then home to the laptop. Two, sometimes three hours per estimate. He kept losing bids, not on price, but because the other guy delivered first.
Then he tried the AI Estimator. He opened a project, described the scope, and the estimate was waiting for him. Same markup. Same line items. Same control over every dollar. Just minutes instead of hours.
Now he’s not the last bid to land.
Describe your project. Get a complete, priced estimate. You stay in control.
Type a sentence or paste your notes from the jobsite walkthrough.
Materials, labor, your local pricing, pulled from Clear Estimates' construction database.
Adjust, mark up, send the proposal. You still own every dollar.
It’s built on the Clear Estimates database you already trust: the same construction costs, templates and labor rates. The AI just does the line-item assembly for you.

“For a small business start up like myself, Clear Estimates was my first purchase. I researched for days online, spoke to other contractors, even… sat through other estimating sites’ tutorials. It came down to these things for me: the detailed features Clear Estimates provides, how professional my proposals and invoices look, the customization allowed with… everything, and the fact that I as a new business can actually afford it. The free trial was a HUGE bonus — I was sold after 2 jobs… Clear Estimates helped me blow my first month projections out of the roof and people commented all the time about how professional and organized my team was.”

The AI Estimator doesn’t replace your judgment. It does the assembly work, pulling line items, labor and materials from the Clear Estimates database, and hands you a draft estimate. You review it. You edit it. You apply your markup. You decide what the customer sees.
Same markup. Same line items. Same control. Just minutes instead of hours.
A built-in feature inside Clear Estimates that turns a scope description into a full draft estimate using your existing catalog, templates, and pricing.
No. It builds the line items; you keep full control of pricing, markup, and what the client sees.
It uses the same trusted Clear Estimates construction database that contractors have relied on for years, with localized pricing. Several customers tell us it catches items that get missed in manual estimates.
Yes. The AI Estimator is included on every Clear Estimates plan. AI Estimator Pro, on the Pro plan, also builds estimates from attachments: photos, PDFs and documents.
Most contractors are generating their first AI estimate within minutes. As Daniel F. Put it: "Very intuitive going through the different features, without having to sit through an eight-hour class to learn how to navigate."
Every line is editable. You can remove items, add your own, change quantities, and apply your own markup before the proposal ever leaves your hands.
