About
Asta Estimate is construction cost estimating solution that helps professionals prepare fast, accurate cost estimates and quantity take-offs to support bids and cost planning across projects of any size. It enables users to perform fast and accurate quantity take-offs from 2D drawings via interface with tools like Bluebeam, directly from BIM models, or through automated population of project data, helping speed up estimate creation. It lets users build custom or industry-standard cost libraries with detailed labor, plant, material, and supplier price items, and supports easy cost planning directly from these libraries. Integration with project planning tools such as Asta Powerproject means fully resourced estimates can be exported into schedules to align cost data with project timelines. Asta Estimate also includes modular add-ons like BIM 5D for more advanced estimating workflows and, in supported regions, climate modules for cost and environmental impact reporting.

About
BidVariance is browser-based Monte Carlo estimating software for consultants, agencies, engineering teams and specialist contractors pricing fixed-price work. Users build task-based models from optimistic, likely and pessimistic duration and cost estimates, connect task dependencies, and add probabilistic risks. The simulation engine samples thousands of outcomes and reports cost and schedule ranges, P50/P80/P90 results, loss and target-margin probabilities, deadline confidence, and the assumptions that drive variation. Users can test alternative scenarios on Business and Consultant licenses, calculate confidence-based quotes, export project data, and create printable decision reports. Project models stay in local browser storage; online license verification is required for the full workspace. Free standalone bid calculators are available without an account, while the multi-task simulation app requires a one-time license.
