About IntelCost
Built by estimators
IntelCost is built by working construction estimators who do takeoff and bids every day. It is cloud takeoff and estimating software for general contractors, specialty subcontractors, civil and sitework contractors and estimating firms, designed around the way estimators actually work.

Designed around how estimators work
An estimate moves from the drawings to quantities, from quantities to prices, and from prices to the number you submit. IntelCost keeps those steps in one cloud project, so nothing is retyped between programs and everyone on the bid sees the same numbers.
- Takeoff, estimate and bid in one placeThe quantity you measure is the line you price. Rates, markups and the bid summary sit in the same project as the drawings, and the estimate goes out as an Excel workbook.How estimating works
- Organized by CSI divisionItems are filed under MasterFormat divisions as you measure, so the estimate is grouped by division, ready to set beside past jobs and sub quotes.Classifications
- Real labor rates for the jobPick the project's county and wage determination, choose burdened or direct pricing, and the labor lines use the rates saved for that project.The Wage Calculator
- The whole team on one projectSplit the set between estimators, price while the takeoff finishes, and leave notes on the sheet for review. Owners and designers get a read-only link.Collaboration
- Numbers you can defendEvery quantity traces back to a shape on a sheet or a formula you can read. When someone asks where a number came from, the answer is one click away.Takeoff
- The repetitive work, handed offBox one fixture and Auto Count finds its copies. Box a door schedule and get one count item per row. You check every result before it is counted.Auto Count
