Buildxact started in Australia and now works with builders and remodelers in the United States, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. The core is digital takeoff: load a plan as PDF, measure on screen, push quantities straight into a quote. Supplier price lists keep material costs current, and the job stage compares actual spend against the original estimate. A fourteen day trial runs without a card.

Best for small builders who quote often and dislike spreadsheets. Pricing starts near one hundred seventy dollars a month for one user, fair for the takeoff engine, steep if quoting is rare. Scheduling and site management are thinner than in Buildertrend, so growing firms often pair it with another tool. Learning the takeoff takes a couple of jobs.
