Buildern

Builder software with AI estimating and free external users

Overview

Buildern is construction management software for home builders, general contractors, remodelers, commercial and specialty contractors and construction managers. The vendor says it releases updates every two weeks[13].

The Starter plan costs US$225 a month for one to five office users with two seats included and additional users at US$81 a month; it covers estimates and proposals, budgets, purchase orders, bills, invoices, scheduling, QuickBooks or Xero integration, selections and allowances, RFIs and submittals, and role-based permissions. Professional costs US$360 a month for five to 30 office users with four seats included and adds takeoffs, timesheets with mobile approval and custom onboarding. Enterprise is custom for more than 30 seats. Buildern AI, which can build estimates and schedules, analyse budgets and answer questions, is included in all plans with monthly credits. Field workers, subcontractors, vendors and clients are free[13].

A seven-day trial requires no card, and there are no contracts. The pricing page is inconsistent about whether takeoff and timesheets are included in Starter.
