A working file, not a black box

Open it. Change a rate. Watch every total move.

Your estimate lands as an interactive dashboard and editable workbook — adjust quantities, swap in your own rates and set your margin, with the full BOQ recalculating live.

Why it holds up

A new kind of estimating — not software, not a slow consultant.

A DA-stage architectural plan measured by EstiFlow
01

Measured from your plans

Quantities are taken off your actual drawings — direct from your CAD where available — never scaled from a template or a per-square-metre rule of thumb.

02

Editable, not a static PDF

Every line carries qty, unit, rate and total. Swap in your own rates in the browser and the BOQ recalculates — it is a working file, not a locked document.

03

Every provisional has an action

Each provisional sum is mapped to a specific resolution action and owner. You always know what is measured and what still needs confirming.

Estimate transparency

A cost position you can inspect.

  1. 01

    Measured from the documents

    The supplied architectural, structural, civil, geotechnical and services information establishes the measurable basis for the estimate.

  2. 02

    The basis stays visible

    Document-derived BOQ lines identify the relevant drawing, schedule, model or method behind the quantity and price.

  3. 03

    Uncertainty is named

    Provisional items, exclusions, customer-supplied scope and unresolved selections remain distinct from measured work.

  4. 04

    Next actions are practical

    The report identifies the documents, trade quotes or selections that would firm the remaining allowances.

The delivered pack keeps measured scope, assumptions, exclusions, provisional items and next actions separate.

From plans to a costed estimate

Four steps. Residential typically same day.

Commercial and other eligible projects are typically delivered within two business days once the document set is confirmed.

  1. 01

    Upload your plans

    Send your DA-stage architectural plans. No NatHERS certificate required — plans only.

  2. 02

    Completeness check

    We confirm the drawings give us what we need and flag anything missing before we price.

What builders say

What builders said about the numbers

Builders and developers run their numbers through EstiFlow before they commit.

Rise Up Constructions logo
I used EstiFlow for a second opinion on a $1.7M alterations and additions project in Bronte. What came back genuinely surprised me — far more comprehensive than the other platforms I've tried, and the price landed almost exactly where my own tender pricing was. It picked up the conflicts buried in my consultants' documents and priced the risks honestly instead of glossing over them. I've already passed EstiFlow on to other builders.
Nathan LoweDirector · Rise Up ConstructionsAlterations & additions · Bronte NSW
Armac Construction logo
We sent EstiFlow a full construction pack for a major industrial project at funding stage — no contractor rates to lean on and a client waiting on numbers. What came back was a seriously detailed estimate with a clear base-versus-options comparison we could put straight in front of our client, and it landed right where the project needed to be. The trade breakdowns and the decision schedule were beyond what I expected from any estimating service. We'll be using EstiFlow on our major projects from here.
Ryan McDonaldBuilder · Armac ConstructionIndustrial · funding stage
Limitless Build logo
We've used EstiFlow on two of our projects now and the detail is like nothing else we've seen — full line-by-line bills of quantities with every measurement and rate backed up, plus a report that actually explains the build. It's fast, the pricing stacks up, and we'll be using them on all our jobs going forward.
KylieLimitless BuildRepeat customer · two projects
Xela Projects logo
EstiFlow gave us a detailed commercial estimate with the scope and trade breakdown clearly set out. It was quick to review and gave us a practical cost position we could use straight away.
Director · Xela ProjectsCommercial estimate · NSW
Skyjaid logo
The residential estimate came back quickly, with the quantities and trade costs clearly broken down. The level of detail made it easy to review the job and move forward with confidence.
Director · SkyjaidResidential estimate · NSW
NSW Remedial Group
We do remedial work, so waterproofing is where jobs get won or lost — and it's the scope everyone under-measures. I had EstiFlow price a duplex and it came back with the full extent of the waterproofing quantified properly, line by line, not a lump sum with a guess in it. That's the part I'd normally spend a night working out myself.
Michael MelkonianDirector · NSW Remedial GroupDuplex · NSW
Pro-Build logo
We've put a few jobs through EstiFlow now. The BOQ comes back the same day, detailed enough that my estimator checks it rather than building it from scratch. That's why we keep sending them work.
Brandon HorvathDirector · Pro-BuildRepeat customer · NSW
BWR Building logo
Sent the plans for a triplex through and got back every trade broken out. It picked up a couple of things I'd have had to go back and add if I'd priced it myself.
Beau RyanBuilder · BWR BuildingTriplex · Northern Rivers NSW
Tennyson Building logo
A QS quote used to cost me over a grand and take a week or two. This came back the same afternoon for a fraction of that, and the numbers stacked up well against what I'd normally pay.
Peng WangBuilder · Tennyson BuildingSingle dwelling
Westpoint Group logo
We used it to build the estimate for a commercial tender across multiple sites. The format was clean enough to put in front of the client without reworking it, and the trade breakdown gave us confidence in the number. Turnaround was the standout.

Money-back guarantee

Not useful? Full refund on your first estimate.

If your first EstiFlow estimate is not useful, we refund it in full — no questions asked. Per job, no subscription, no lock-in.

Before you buy

Quick answers for builders comparing estimate options.

The essentials for paid Search traffic: service area, documents, turnaround, deliverables and where a licensed QS still matters.

Do you service builders outside Sydney?

Yes. EstiFlow supports residential, commercial, industrial, fitout, apartment and mixed-use projects Australia-wide, including metro and regional work.

Is this construction estimating software?

No. EstiFlow is a paid estimating service. Full estimates include the report, editable BOQ workbook, subcontractor pricing packs, programme and dashboard. Trade Estimate Packs deliver the purchased trade report, BOQ and procurement pack.

How fast is turnaround?

Residential estimates and Trade Estimate Packs are typically delivered the same day. Commercial and other eligible projects are typically delivered within two business days. Major-project timing is confirmed with the quote.

Do I need NatHERS, BASIX or engineering drawings?

No. DA-stage architectural plans are enough to start. NatHERS, BASIX, structural, geotech, services, finishes and landscape documents help tighten the estimate.

Can I send a CAD or BIM model?

Yes. EstiFlow accepts IFC, DWG, SketchUp and LandXML as supplied, alongside the issued drawing set. Issued drawings govern material conflicts.

Is EstiFlow a licensed quantity surveyor?

No. EstiFlow provides automated construction estimating outputs to support builder decision-making. It does not replace a registered, certified or licensed quantity surveying report where one is required.

What happens if the first estimate is not useful?

Your first estimate is covered by the money-back guarantee. If it is not useful, EstiFlow refunds it in full.
