Instant software estimate

AI project estimation turns requirements into detailed scope in minutes. Upload documents, get modules with tasks, roles, and hours. What took 3-5 days now takes 20 minutes. Respond to clients the same day and win more deals.

Consistent estimates across all projects

AI estimation tool applies the same logic to every project. Task breakdown, role assignment, and time estimation stay consistent. Each estimate includes assumptions and risk buffers. No more variance between team members.

Ballpark estimate to review

Stop pulling engineers from billable projects. AI software estimation handles initial scope creation. Sales can generate estimates without technical help. Engineers review instead of building from scratch.

Fast estimate updates

Client requirements change during the sales process. AI software estimation makes adjustments fast. Add tasks, remove modules, or change hours - the AI updates everything in seconds. All calculations, dependencies, and assumptions stay consistent. Keep estimates current without manual rework.

Manual software estimation
wastes time and resources

Start free for 14 days

Software project estimation takes a lot of time

Most teams spend 1-3 days creating software project estimates. Project managers and developers analyze requirements, break down features, estimate tasks, and calculate hours manually. This slows sales cycles and ties up expensive resources.

Problems with manual estimation process

Manual estimation has three problems. It's slow - clients wait days for quotes while competitors respond faster. It's inconsistent - different people estimate the same work differently. It's expensive - senior engineers spend time on pre-sales instead of billable work.

AI software estimation creates estimates in minutes

AI software estimation solves this. Upload requirements and get a complete estimate in minutes. The AI creates detailed scope with modules, tasks, roles, and hours. Your team reviews and adjusts instead of building from scratch.

FAQ for
AI software estimation

AI software estimation accuracy is 85-90% initially, improving to 95%+ after review. It applies consistent logic to tasks and time estimates. You review and adjust based on your team's velocity. AI creates the baseline in minutes instead of days.

Yes. AI software estimation works for projects from 100 to 10,000+ hours. It breaks large projects into modules and identifies dependencies. The AI recognizes enterprise patterns like microservices, integrations, and compliance requirements.

Upload RFPs, SRS documents, user stories, feature lists, specifications, emails, or plain text. The AI estimation tool accepts PDFs, Word docs, or text files. You can upload multiple documents per project.

AI software estimation makes explicit assumptions when requirements are unclear. If a requirement says "user authentication" without details, the AI includes standard tasks (login, registration, password reset) and notes "Assuming email authentication - may change for OAuth." This gives you a starting point for client discussions.

Yes. Sales and account managers can use AI project estimation to create estimates. Upload requirements, describe features in plain language. The AI handles technical translation. Technical review is recommended but not required to start.

AI estimation tool integrates with existing processes. Use AI to generate initial scope. Review with your standard procedures. Export to Excel, Jira, Asana, or PDF. The AI speeds up estimate creation while keeping your review and approval process the same.

Yes. Use min-max hours with rates for time-and-materials projects. Lock scope with detailed tasks and assumptions for fixed-price. AI software estimation adapts to your methodology.

Use AI to update estimates in natural language. Add features, remove modules, adjust hours. AI maintains consistency across calculations, dependencies, and assumptions. Updates happen in seconds instead of hours.
