About

KonstructIQ is an AI-powered construction and financial platform designed for residential general contractors, remodeling firms, and home builders. It consolidates the full project lifecycle, from fast, professional estimates to budgeting, invoicing, payments, change-order management, cost tracking, subcontractor coordination, and real-time reporting, into a single interface. Its estimating module enables contractors to build detailed bids quickly, using customizable cost codes, markup or margin calculations, and either cost-plus or fixed-price models. Once an estimate is approved, it becomes the project budget; every subsequent bill, invoice, or change order automatically updates the budget so contractors maintain accurate job costing and profitability oversight. Payments to subcontractors or suppliers are built in, and support methods like ACH, checks, debit/credit cards, virtual cards, or Zelle, and invoices can be paid directly by clients through a portal to speed up cash flow.

About

TradeOff is cloud-based software for takeoff, estimating, and progress billing that streamlines workflows from blueprint analysis to client payment. The platform enables users to upload PDF drawings directly into their browser, where scale calibration, trace, and count tools simplify quantity aggregation. An AI assistant enhances this process by extracting quantities, detecting scales, and suggesting rates. The estimating matrix provides a spreadsheet-style grid for pricing, while progress billing features support schedule-of-values billing, retainage tracking, and tax compliance like CIS deductions and VAT reverse charges. Payment processing is supported through Stripe and BACS, complemented by team collaboration roles and one-click PDF exports for branded estimates and payment applications.
