Restoration budgeting

From dictation and sketch to an editable budget.

Dictate the walkthrough, add the sketch, and generate a working draft from your company’s own prices and rules. Then edit it, update it and export it.

Four steps to a working draft

  1. Dictate

    Record the walkthrough, upload a transcript, or paste notes. The original wording stays with the job.

  2. Add the sketch

    Upload the floor plan sketch. Rooms and sizes are read from it; approximations are labelled.

  3. Generate

    One button builds an editable draft from your company’s catalog, packages and stated prices.

  4. Edit and export

    Change quantities and prices, add follow-up notes, and export PDF or Excel.

Nothing hidden after you generate

The draft is a starting point you can trust to be honest about itself. What was assumed and what is still missing is shown right where you work.

  • Estimates and assumptions are labelled on the line they affect
  • Work without a price is listed — never counted as $0
  • Package-covered work is included once, not twice
  • Your own edits are kept when you update the budget
  • Screen, PDF and Excel show the same saved numbers
  • A draft stays a draft until someone signs it off
