About Estima

Built for real jobsites, not demos

Estima is a free, engineering-grade construction cost estimator built to give contractors, builders, architects, and homeowners a professional starting point for any project — anywhere in the world.

What We Do

An engineering cost engine, not a guess

Estima combines a deterministic engineering cost engine with multi-provider AI to produce estimates that are grounded in real construction data — not guesswork. Every estimate references industry cost databases, regional market multipliers, and international construction standards including IBC, ACI 318, AASHTO, and PESCO specifications.

Unlike generic AI chatbots, Estima is purpose-built for construction. Each project category — from residential houses to retaining walls to electrical installations — has its own specific input fields, cost breakdown methodology, material quantity takeoff, labour analysis, risk assessment, and applicable standards.

Who It's For

Anyone building something real

Estima is built for anyone involved in construction — small contractors, quantity surveyors, civil engineers, architects, project managers, developers, and homeowners planning a build. Whether you need a quick ballpark or a detailed planning estimate, Estima gives you a professional starting point in seconds.

A Note On Accuracy

Estimates, not guarantees

Estima provides engineering estimates for planning and budgeting purposes. It is not a substitute for a formal quotation from a licensed contractor or a bill of quantities prepared by a registered quantity surveyor.

Always obtain professional quotes before committing to any construction project.
