Every tool your estimation team needs
Six integrated modules covering the full lifecycle — from drawing upload to bid analytics. Built specifically for mid-market retail general contractors.
Geo Bid-List Builder
Build your shortlist by trade and distance from the site.
Pull subs from your database, filtered by CSI section and radius from the job site, and assemble a ready-to-send bid list in minutes. Outreach starts with the right subs, not a blank spreadsheet.
- Filter by CSI section and distance from the job site
- Pulls candidates straight from your subcontractor database
- Draft list ready for review before anything sends
- Generate quote-request links for the whole list in one step
- Carries forward project-to-project as your sub database grows
Module 02Split-Screen ROD Review
Drawings on the left. Your ROD on the right.
Review every ROD item next to its source drawing page. Accept, edit, reject, flag — or reassign the division or section inline and watch the row relocate automatically. Section-level sign-off when you're confident. Every change is captured in an immutable audit trail attached to the sign-off package.
- Split-screen drawing + scope workspace
- Inline division / section editing with auto-relocation
- Item-level accept / edit / reject / flag
- Per-item feedback channel back to our review team
- Section-level sign-off workflow with audit history
- Source-page provenance: every item links to its drawing page
Subcontractor Database
Your sub list, organized by section.
Import your existing contacts via CSV or build from scratch. Tag subs by CSI section, track bid history and response rates, and let Parapet suggest the right subs for each project.
- CSV import for bulk onboarding
- Multi-section tagging per subcontractor
- Multiple contacts per company
- Activity log: quotes received, notes, contact history
- Smart suggestions by section and geography
Direct Quote Requests
Get sub quotes without the back-and-forth.
Generate a secure upload link for any subcontractor and send it directly. Subs upload their quote PDF via a public link — no account required. AI parses it automatically the moment it lands.
- Secure, expiring upload links per project
- Public quote submission (no sub login required)
- AI parses PDFs the moment they arrive
- Quote status tracking: received → reviewed → accepted
- Works from any estimator email or Slack message
Quote Comparison & Gap Analysis
AI reads the quotes so you don't have to.
Subs upload quotes as PDFs or CSVs. Claude parses every line item and maps it back to your ROD. Scope gaps are flagged automatically, then surfaced in a side-by-side comparison view.
- AI quote parsing (PDF and CSV)
- ROD-to-quote gap detection
- Side-by-side comparison table
- Gap severity: critical / minor
- Quote workflow: received → reviewed → accepted
Bid Analytics
Understand where your estimating time actually goes.
Track time saved per project, win rates by estimator, sub response performance, and cost benchmarks by CSI section. Use the data to tighten your process and win more bids.
- Time per phase: upload → ROD, ROD → bid
- Bids per estimator per month
- Win rate: submitted vs. won
- Sub performance: response rate, turnaround
- Section cost benchmarks across similar projects
