I have already told someone about the software. I feel as more updates are added it is going to be an unstoppable competitive software in the construction industry.

AI Job Costing
Know Your Job Costs Before the Project Is Over
Your AI Teammate now tracks actual costs against your budget as the project runs so you always know what you've spent, what's left, and where the margin risk is.
Turn any approved estimate into a live budget automatically. No spreadsheet rebuilds. No waiting for QuickBooks. No finding out too late.
Connect your whole project budget automatically
After an estimate is approved, most contractors lose financial visibility. Receipts land in your email. Vendor costs sit in portals. Subcontractor payments live in a spreadsheet no one's updating in real time. QuickBooks gets opened at tax time, not mid-project.
AI Job Costing connects the estimate, the actual costs, and the financial picture in one place. Your AI Teammate tracks what comes in, flags where you're running over, and gives you a live financial readout every day the project is active. Not just when the books close.
Estimate 10x faster
Turn 3 hour estimates into 20-minute work using real contractor data, not guesswork, with your pricing rules baked right in.
Win more projects
Capture walkthrough details automatically and respond same-day. Automated follow-up keeps leads warm so you never lose a good prospect.
Make more money
Send professional proposals instantly, know exactly when clients view them and keep leads moving with automated follow-up that actually works.
Handoff has turned 3-hour estimates into 20-minute estimates ... I give a project scope, any plans and pictures, and it creates the entire estimate for me.

Estimate becomes the budget automatically
Once an estimate is approved, Handoff uses it as the project's financial baseline. Budget by section, by line item, and by total remaining. No rebuilding required.
AI receipt extraction and cost matching
Upload a receipt and your AI Teammate extracts the vendor, date, amount, and line items automatically. It suggests how each cost maps back to the estimate. You approve, edit, or leave items unmatched.
Budget vs Actuals in real time
See what you estimated, what you've spent, what's left, and where you're over by section and line item. It's updated automatically as costs come in during the active project.
Full project financial summary
Total estimated, total spent, remaining budget, total invoiced, and billed gross profit all in one place, always current, and available any time the project is active.
The AI agent for contractors
Trained on real construction. Not generic AI guesswork.
Most AI tools are built for everyone — which means they're built for no one. Handoff is different. Your AI Teammate is trained on real residential construction projects, real contractor pricing, and real job site conditions. When it estimates a bathroom remodel in Phoenix, it's not guessing. It knows.

I've been so frustrated with estimating that I was ready to give it up. Handoff is like taking a 1,000-pound weight off my chest. I feel so much better now. I'm so glad I found you guys.

The software is brilliant — it's not just a tool, it's an entire support system. Sophia, my support team leader, has been wonderful. She responds quickly and gets things resolved every time. Even if the software stood alone, it would still be solid, but having a support system like this makes it one of the best out there.
