New: AI Change Orders — Scope Changed? Price It in 60 Seconds

New: AI Change Orders — Scope Changed? Price It in 60 Seconds

"While you're here, could you also…"

Every contractor knows the sentence. The client wants a second vanity, an upgraded countertop, one more outlet — and suddenly you're pricing new work on the tailgate with a guess and a handshake. Underprice it and the change eats your margin. Overprice it and the client feels burned. AI Change Orders ends the tailgate math.

Describe the change. Get an itemized change order.

Open any estimate in the AI Pricing Tool, hit Change Order, and type what changed. In about a minute you get:

  • Itemized line items — each with labor and materials broken out
  • The change total — positive or negative, because scope shrinks too
  • Your new project total — computed from the original contract automatically
  • Timeline impact — how many days the change adds
  • A client-friendly note — plain-English reasoning you can send as-is

One tap copies the whole change order as clean text for a message or email.

Priced for your market, not a national average

Change orders use the same local price calibration as our estimates — metro-area cost indices for labor and materials across 140+ US markets — so a Denver change order prices like Denver and a San Francisco one prices like San Francisco.

From job-site problem to priced fix in one tap

Here's the best part: it's wired into Site Problems. When your crew reports a leak or a cracked slab, hit Price This Fix on the problem and the change order is pre-filled with the problem details and the AI's likely cause. Surprise problem at 9am, priced change order in the client's inbox by 9:05.

Live now for every contractor

AI Change Orders is included free with the AI Pricing Tool. Generate an estimate, press Change Order, and never guess at mid-job pricing again.
