How the estimate maker works

Snap it, say it, or type it. Send the estimate in 60 seconds.

  1. Describe it your way. A job-site photo, a voice note, a sentence, or a customer's email.
  2. AI drafts the estimate. Scope, line items, and prices from your own Price Book and live local material costs.
  3. Send it by text. Your customer opens it on their phone, signs, and pays the deposit.
Estimates
Canvass plan

Every door on the map. Every rep on the board.

Everything in Solo, plus the field.

See canvassing →

Door map

Log every knock. Each door becomes a lead.

Territories

Draw an area, assign a rep, see their numbers.

Storm alerts

NOAA hail, wind, or a tornado inside your territory, the same day.

Team and commission

Invite reps. Commission accrues when money is collected.

Signed is just the start - get paid on autopilot

Get paid

Collect the deposit at signature

The deposit is a term of the estimate - customers pay it the moment they sign.

Invoicing

The invoice drafts itself

Signing auto-drafts the invoice, so the job never stalls in paperwork.

Recurring work

Recurring invoices and service plans

Set the cadence once and FastEstimateMaker generates and sends every period.

See recurring invoices →
Automatic follow-up

Reminders and review requests run themselves

Appointment and invoice reminders and the Google review request go out automatically, with a kill switch.

The simple system for solo contractors

Estimating software built for your trade

FastEstimateMaker is a free-to-start AI estimate generator and estimate app for contractors who quote jobs in the field and need speed more than a bloated office system.

Estimate app questions from contractors

Describe your first job or snap a photo right on this page - there is no signup form. Your account is created while your first estimate builds, and the trial runs 14 days with full access, including canvassing, sales territories, and storm-territory alerts. No credit card required.

No download needed. FastEstimateMaker is a web app that runs in the browser on any phone, tablet, or computer - add it to your home screen and it opens like any other app. Build estimates from a photo, your voice, or a typed note, manage your leads on an interactive map, canvass neighborhoods, plan your daily route, and collect payments.

Every estimate is delivered as a branded client portal your customer opens from their phone - they can accept, pay, and book right there. You also get a professional PDF backup, an editable Word document (.docx) for making any changes, an .ics appointment file, and a .vcf contact card.

Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we never sell or share it. Photos you use to draft an estimate are not kept on our servers - only the draft remains.

Yes. Upload your logo and set your business details once, and every estimate, invoice, and customer portal carries your branding. You can call the document an estimate, quote, or proposal, set payment terms and a deposit, and edit every line before it sends.

Describe the job by voice, a typed sentence, a job-site photo, or a forwarded customer email. The AI drafts the scope and priced line items from your own Price Book and live local material costs, you review and adjust, then text or email it. Your customer opens a branded portal on their phone to sign, pay the deposit, or book - all in about 60 seconds.

Fast Estimate Maker is built for solopreneurs, entrepreneurs, and service-based small businesses including plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, handymen, roofers, landscapers, and other trade professionals who frequently create estimates for customers.

There are two plans. Solo is $29.99 per month for unlimited estimates and every feature except canvassing. Canvass is $59.99 per month and adds the canvassing map, sales territories, storm-territory alerts, and team accounts, with your own login included and extra rep seats at $19.99 per month each, billed only while a rep is active. Slow season? Drop either plan to the $5 per month Off-Season plan and resume in one tap. There are no setup fees, no contracts, and you can cancel anytime. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with full access and no credit card.

Canvassing mode lets you go door to door and log every interaction on a map - spoke to homeowner, left a flyer, or need to revisit. Each door becomes a prospect in your pipeline automatically. You can also draw sales territories, assign them to a rep, and get a storm-territory alert the same day NOAA reports hail, wind, or a tornado inside one, naming how many of your mapped doors there are still marked Not contacted. Canvassing, territories, and storm-territory alerts are part of the $59.99 per month Canvass plan, and every free trial includes them. Plan My Day pulls your revisits, follow-ups due, and nearby prospects into a numbered route you can navigate with Google Maps.

Yes. Enable your booking page in settings, set your available hours, and share the link anywhere. Prospects pick a date and time, enter their contact info, and you get a confirmed appointment on your Google or Zoho Calendar and in your pipeline. No phone tag, no back-and-forth. Prospects who opt in to texts even get an automatic reminder the day before and the morning of, so fewer of them no-show.

Yes. Fast Estimate Maker sends estimates to a branded signing page where customers can review the scope, sign online, or decline from any phone. Signed approvals stay attached to the same customer record.

Yes. Each customer gets a portal where they can open current and past estimates, signed approvals, invoices, payment links, and job photos tied to each job - all in one place.

No. Just talk naturally, snap a photo, forward a customer email, paste a text thread, or type rough notes. FEM's AI works with whatever you already do. You don't need to learn anything new.

Yes. The deposit is part of the signed estimate, so the moment your customer signs they are prompted to pay it through your own Stripe, PayPal, Square, or Venmo account. Deposit status tracks on the job, so you can see who has paid without asking.

Yes. Put a customer on a weekly, every 2 weeks, monthly, or quarterly cadence and FEM generates and sends each invoice automatically, or leaves it as a draft for you to review when auto-send is off. Service plans build on top of that for maintenance agreements you invoice on the same schedule.
