How Mobi works

From project documents to a usable estimate

A streamlined workflow for contractors who need capacity—not another software implementation project.

  1. 1

    Send the project

    Forward the invitation to bid to your private Mobi address, or upload drawings, specifications, addenda, scope notes, and the bid due date. No onboarding call to schedule.

  2. 2

    Scope, takeoff, and price

    Mobi organizes the documents, develops the supported takeoff and pricing, and routes the work through human review.

  3. 3

    Correct and review

    Comment on scope, quantities, rates, assumptions, and revisions before you use the final deliverables.

Key benefits

More estimating capacity, without more department overhead

Mobi is not a self-serve takeoff tool. It combines service, workflow, automation, and review around the contractor’s actual project.

Capacity on demand

Handle more supported estimates without recruiting another full-time estimator first.

AI speed, human review

Automation helps organize the work; people review supported scope, pricing, and quality before final delivery.

No-call intake

Start with your project documents and written scope. Clarification can stay attached to the project.

Professional outputs

Receive organized takeoff, labor, material, equipment, assumptions, exclusions, Excel, and PDF deliverables as applicable.

Contractor-controlled collaboration

Corrections stay connected to the estimate

Clarify inclusions, flag missing information, and request supported revisions without losing the project history. Approved company rates, markups, and preferences can stay visible to the review workflow.

Contractors remain responsible for confirming scope, quantities, assumptions, rates, exclusions, and the final bid.

Revision request

Update concrete labor rate and add Addendum 02

Contractor note and supporting document stay attached to this project.

Estimator review required before the revised deliverable is released.

Multi-trade estimating

One organized estimate across the trades in your project

Mobi can organize quantities, labor, material, equipment, assumptions, and exclusions across common construction divisions. Supported scope and complexity are confirmed during review.

Professional deliverables

Estimate information your team can actually use

Deliverables can include supported takeoff quantities, labor, material, equipment, trade and CSI breakdowns, assumptions, exclusions, and contractor-ready Excel and PDF files.

Compared with another internal hire

Add capacity before adding another department

Mobi supports defined estimating work; it does not claim to replace every responsibility or judgment of an experienced employee.

Another full-time hire

  • Recruiting and onboarding
  • Ongoing payroll and employee overhead
  • Software, training, and management
  • Fixed capacity during slower bid periods

  • Per-project or monthly options

FAQ

What contractors should know

Is the first estimate really free?

One qualifying estimate is free for each new company, with no card required. Supported scope and project complexity are reviewed before acceptance. After your free qualifying estimate, regular pay-per-project or monthly pricing applies.

Is Mobi just takeoff software?

No. Mobi combines project intake, scope organization, takeoff, pricing, quality review, contractor revisions, deliverables, and customer-safe progress tracking.

Do I have to sit through a sales or onboarding call?

No required sales or onboarding call is part of the standard intake. Mobi may request written clarification when plans or scope need it.

Can I correct the estimate?

Yes. Supported comments and revisions stay connected to the project. Contractors remain responsible for reviewing scope, quantities, rates, assumptions, exclusions, and the final bid.

Do you guarantee turnaround or a winning bid?

No. Mobi helps you track bid progress and follow-up steps, but we do not promise a turnaround time or a guaranteed win. Schedule is confirmed after complete documents, scope, and complexity are reviewed.
