About

CostMate is estimating software built for New Zealand residential builders — solo operators and two-person crews doing renovations, bathrooms, decks and additions. Labour is calculated using phase-based production rates adjusted for real site conditions (access, height, existing-building constraints, crew size) rather than a flat square-metre rate. BRANZ wastage percentages are applied to material quantities automatically. NZ Building Code requirements — external moisture, wet areas, energy efficiency, timber framing — are built into every estimate by default, not left as a checklist. A quote-checking step reviews the estimate and flags scope commonly missed on residential quotes before it's sent to the client. CostMate runs on a rules engine, not a language model — every quantity, wastage figure and code item is deterministic and reproducible, and can be traced back to why it's there. It is not a quantity surveying package, project management platform, or job scheduling tool.

About

Yamate is the whole admin job for Australian solo tradies and small crews — not just the quote. Quote on site, invoice with PayID, and chase late payers automatically. Put tax and GST aside as you're paid, as an estimate you lodge yourself. Run payday properly: ATO withholding schedules, super on the right earnings, itemised payslips. Stay ahead of licences, insurance and SWMS before they lapse, with safe work method statements drafted for you to review and sign. Bring your old books across from photos of invoices and receipts. Push straight into Xero, or export plain CSVs. Built solo-first, with crews welcome — same flat price. $19/month, no lock-in.
