A 23-category estimate calibrated to Durham market rates in under 2 minutes — with a record of what every job actually cost.
No credit card required. No setup. Under 2 minutes to your first estimate.
You finish a job. Framing ran over. You're not sure if it was your estimate or the sub. You move on to the next bid and use the same number. Six months later, framing runs over again.
The spreadsheet doesn't remember. The handbook uses national averages. And nobody told you your framing estimates have been running 8% high for three jobs in a row.
Builder IQ breaks that cycle.
Address, square footage, build tier, lot condition, finish level. Builder IQ handles the rest — 23 categories, Durham rates, under 2 minutes.
Every category covered. Rate confidence shows which lines are validated vs. estimated. Risk flags show what to confirm before signing. O&P slider sets your margin.
When the job closes, capture your actuals. Builder IQ remembers what ran over — by category, in dollars.
Rate confidence shows which categories are validated, estimated, or sub-quoted — so you know what to price out first.
Risk flags quantify unresolved assumptions in dollars — not vague warnings, real numbers.

Margin floor alerts fire the moment sub quotes threaten your target margin during buyout.
Most tools give you a number. Builder IQ gives you a number with a memory. Every phase of the job feeds it — estimate, sub quotes, actuals. After five closed jobs, Builder IQ knows whether your estimates run high or low — and by how much.
