Are you tired of estimating from scratch?

Every new project starts the same way: a blank spreadsheet, a pile of plans, and hours of your week evaporating before you've priced a single line.

  1. Problem 01

    Hours Disappear Into Takeoffs

    Every new project eats 8–20 hours just to produce one estimate, and half the projects never close.

  2. Problem 02

    Estimating Feels Like a Dark Art

    You've cobbled together your process over years, and every estimate still feels like starting from a blank page hoping you didn't miss something big.

  3. Problem 03

    Missed Line Items Kill Margin

    You forget the dump fees, the temp power, the in-between tasks — and those "small" misses compound into five-figure losses by closeout.

  4. Problem 04

    You're the Bottleneck

    Every estimate funnels through you because no one else on the team can be trusted to build one from scratch. Converting jobs into production slows to a crawl.

Why Builders Are Switching to AI Estimating

  1. Speed That Changes Your Pipeline

    Estimates in under 30 minutes means you can bid 5x more jobs without hiring. More at-bats, more closes, more revenue.

  2. Consistency Across Every Bid

    AI applies the same logic to every project, so your estimates stop drifting based on who built them or how your week is going.

  3. Nothing Gets Missed

    AI works through a complete cost structure every time — no forgotten dump fees, temp power, or missed in-between tasks that quietly eat your margin.

  4. Frees You From the Estimating Desk

    Stop being the bottleneck. Finally delegate estimating and focus on CEO tasks.

Who is this for?

Whether you've been estimating the same way for 20 years or you're drowning trying to figure it out for the first time, this is where you finally learn how to let AI do the heavy lifting — without giving up control of your numbers.

No Garbage Estimates.

Just a system that protects your margin and frees up your week.

This workshop is for you if you are:

  • A custom home builder or remodeler
  • Spending 10+ hours a week building estimates from scratch
  • Curious about AI but skeptical it can actually handle construction complexity
  • Tired of being the only person in your company who can produce a reliable number

What You'll Walk Away With

After this workshop, you'll have an AI estimating workflow you can actually rely on.

You'll stop losing evenings and entire weekends to takeoffs and line-item hunting on projects that may never close.

You'll stop second-guessing whether you forgot something important before you send the estimate to the client.

You'll know exactly how to feed AI the right inputs to get a reliable, construction-specific estimate — not generic garbage.

You'll be able to hand estimating off to your team without worrying they'll blow the margin.

You'll stop turning down bid opportunities because you don't have time to price them.

What You'll Learn

In this live masterclass, we'll tackle the core requirements critical to running AI estimating profitably:

Module 01

How to Structure Your Inputs

The exact way to prep a project so AI gives you a usable estimate on the first pass — not a hallucinated mess.

Module 02

Cost Code & Pricebook Setup

How to build the foundation AI needs to price your projects the way you price them, not the way a generic model guesses.

Module 03

Running the Estimate

The live workflow — from plans and scope to a fully priced, reviewable estimate in under 30 minutes.

Module 04

Reviewing & Trusting the Output

How to sanity-check AI's work, catch the things it gets wrong, and build confidence that the number is defensible before you send it.

Meet Your Construction Coach

Hi, I'm Bryan Kaplan.

I help remodelers, contractors, and custom home builders just like you improve your business and bottom-line profitability. Whether you're just getting started or ready to scale, I can help.

I left the client side of the business in 2018 on a mission to help residential construction business owners like you get the training, systems, and processes in place to thrive.

Today, I'm building AI-native tools specifically for builders — and this workshop is where I teach you how to use them.
