Stop Chasing Down Estimate Details
Get instant, organized summaries from every stakeholder conversation—no more endless follow-ups.
Coordinating with clients, vendors, and site teams eats up hours each week. Critical estimate details get buried in scattered emails and meeting notes, leading to costly miscommunications.
A Consultation Agent for Cost Estimators is an AI-powered agent that helps cost estimators gather, summarize, and clarify project estimate details by facilitating structured Q&A with stakeholders, enabling faster, more accurate estimates.

What this is really costing you

AI Agent FAQ

The agent does not directly integrate with specific estimating or CAD tools. However, you can copy and paste relevant information or upload documents for the agent to process.
The agent cannot join live meetings. You can provide meeting transcripts or notes, and the agent will generate summaries and action items based on that content.
The agent uses advanced language models to extract key points and identify gaps, but you should review outputs for critical decisions. It is designed to save time, not replace your judgment.
