In one place

What you get
Estimate
ScopeDive lays out every cost of a project in one place, scope by scope: material, fabrication, paint, erection, transportation, subcontractors — you name it, and whatever else your business needs.
Material library ↔ estimate
Shapes, plate, glass, wood, hardware and finishes, with your own costs, weights and suppliers. Change a price once and see every open bid it touches.
ScopeDive AI
ScopeDive AI reads specs and drawing sets, drafts your scopes with the page each one came from, drafts RFIs and flags concerns. Every draft lands in the same scopes you would fill by hand, so you can keep going manually anytime. It never prices.
“In custom fabrication, we don't say no. We always find a way. That's what to expect from ScopeDive.”
Bid management
Upload an invite, fill in the details, assign an estimator and mark it bidding. Merge duplicates, then create the project with every general contractor as a bid recipient. Sort by due date, value, client or status, and see what's due this week at a glance.
Revisions & proposals
Every change becomes a revision, side by side with the last. Price alternates without touching the base bid, group costs the way the client wants to see them, and send a clean proposal.
Team & approvals
Assign a task on any scope, talk in one thread per project, and send bids above your limit to one approver who approves, asks for changes or rejects with a note.
“Addendum 2 landings added and the lobby breakout priced as Alt 1. Please approve before it goes to Summit Point Builders.”
@Estimating Lead the discount is on the review tab — adders look right.
For estimators who build systems
The Engine Room is where Estimation Structure and Library settings live: how a bid rolls up, how costs are bucketed, how materials are modeled. Everything in ScopeDive is configurable. This is how the machine is put together.
Alternates (add / deduct) are priced as their own scopes and listed beside the base bid, never inside it.

Questions
ScopeDive is estimation and bid management software built for construction trade contractors. You build estimates scope by scope, price every line from your own library, manage bids, revisions and proposals. ScopeDive AI drafts scopes from the specs, each with its source page; you review and decide, and it never prices.
ScopeDive is designed for construction contractors, general contractors and trade contractors, and its customization tools let it serve every trade. It shines in custom work: metal and steel, aluminum, glass, stone, wood and millwork, cabinets, handrail, stairs, signs and complete fit-outs, where no two jobs are alike and every bid needs its own materials, units and pricing. If your shop prices custom scopes from takeoffs, ScopeDive likely fits. Ask us.
Yes. The material library holds your own costs, weights and suppliers, and it feeds every estimate. Change a price once and see every open bid it touches. Libraries are included in every plan: 2 on Starter, 5 on Pro and 10 on Enterprise.
The Engine Room is where Estimation Structure and Library settings live. Starter gets the Engine Room switches: turn cost components on or off, change unit rates and use the existing component adjustments (adding or editing cost components is not included). Pro and Enterprise include the full Engine Room.
Every trial is reviewed and approved by ScopeDive. The Starter trial is free for 14 days and needs no credit card. A Pro trial needs a card, but nothing is charged during the trial and you can cancel anytime within it. Request early access and we’ll set your shop up personally.
Both. Each company picks its units in Settings, and the whole system follows: takeoffs, estimates, the material library and proposals. You can switch anytime, and the library keeps metric and imperial values side by side.
Your data trains only your company’s brain, never anyone else’s, and it is never shared.
Starter includes 2 users, Pro includes 4, and Enterprise includes 10 users plus 2 read-only viewers. Extra seats can be added on any plan. Teams of 10 or more should look at Enterprise.
Starter includes 100 GB of file storage, Pro 500 GB and Enterprise 2 TB. Need more? Add storage in +500 GB packs for $25/month.
Enterprise is for teams of 10+ users. It includes everything in Pro, with 10 users and 2 read-only viewers, 10 material libraries, 2,500 ScopeDive AI credits a month, 2 TB of file storage and free onboarding of your own library and estimation structure.
Request early access. A person replies within 2 business days and sets you up personally. Founding shops get hands-on setup and a direct say in what we build next.
“For twenty-five years I've estimated and managed custom fabrication work — steel, aluminum, brass, glass, wood and complete fit-outs, each with its own finishes and hardware. No two jobs were alike, and that taught me how many materials, units and changes go into a single bid, and how fast the numbers move when the drawings do. I built ScopeDive because the tools I tried were made for simple, repeatable work. Custom fabrication isn't simple, and it deserves software built by someone who has priced it.”
