Buildxact

What Buildxact does
Buildxact centers on fast residential estimating. Builders run digital takeoffs from plans, price them with their own cost catalogs, templates and assemblies, and pull in live supplier price lists to turn estimates into branded quotes. Once a job is won, Buildxact tracks budgets, variations and change orders, purchase orders, schedules, margins and invoices, and a client portal shares progress with homeowners.
The platform is browser-based and integrates with accounting tools and supplier pricing feeds; reviewers highlight timesheet integrations and pricing feeds from building suppliers. Buildxact also offers tools for building material dealers to provide estimating services to their trade customers.
Buildxact is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, and serves builders in Australia, New Zealand, the US, Canada and the UK; it raised an $18.5 million (AUD) Series A led by Regal Funds Management. In the US, plans start with Foundation at $199 per month, with Pro at $399 and Master at $599 per month, and annual billing is cheaper. A free trial is available.
