What Users Say
“Before ContractorIQ, I was spending 10-15 hours estimating a typical remodel. Now I can generate a detailed estimate in under 3 hours and my accuracy has improved because the AI catches items I used to miss. Last year I increased my bid volume by 40% without adding estimating staff.”
