Roof and gutter takeoff from satellite or an on-site sketch, AI-drafted scope and line items, a reusable line item library, markup, overhead and tax, a customer approval portal, change orders and one-click conversion to an invoice.
How much is it?
Solo is 25 USD per month, Team is 65 USD per month with 3 seats. Both start from the free plan: no credit card, your first job on us.

From measurement to approved estimate

  1. Step 01

    Measure or describe

    Trace the roof on satellite imagery, sketch it on site, or just type the scope in plain language.

  2. Step 02

    AI drafts the estimate

    Kavric writes the scope of work and line items. Roof and gutter lines come through as labor only, clearly labeled.

  3. Step 03

    Add materials and markup

    Drop in your material lines, apply markup, overhead, contingency and tax with your own saved rates.

  4. Step 04

    Send for approval

    Clean PDF or a portal link. The customer reviews and approves online.

  5. Step 05

    Change orders

    Scope changes spin up from the original estimate, get approved, and join the invoice.

  6. Step 06

    Invoice

    One click turns the approved estimate into an invoice, change orders included.

What is inside the estimating tools

Roof and gutter takeoff

Squares with pitch across multiple faces, gutter linear feet with downspouts, miters and end caps.

AI-drafted scope

A photo or a few notes becomes a written scope of work and priced line items you can edit.

Reusable line items

Your own library of items and rates, so the second estimate is faster than the first.

Crew cheat sheet

A print-ready scope and quantity sheet for subs and crew, with no pricing on it.

Customer approval portal

Customers review and approve online. Approval creates the job automatically.

Change orders

First-class change orders from the original estimate through approval and into the invoice.

Frequently asked questions

What is construction estimating software?

+

Construction estimating software turns a scope of work into a priced, sendable estimate. In Kavric that means measurements or notes go in, and line items, quantities, markup and tax come out as a clean PDF or an approval link the customer signs.

Does Kavric do takeoff?

+

Yes, for roofs and gutters. Pull up a property by address and trace the roof on satellite imagery, or sketch it on site. Kavric returns roofing squares with pitch across multiple faces, and gutter linear feet with downspouts, miters and end caps.

Are generated estimate lines labor or materials?

+

Auto-generated roof and gutter lines are labor only and are labeled that way. You add materials yourself so nothing is priced on your behalf.

Can I reuse my own pricing?

+

Yes. Rates are editable in the Measure pricing settings and you keep a reusable line item library, so your own numbers carry from estimate to estimate.

How much does Kavric cost?

+

Solo is 25 USD per month or 250 USD per year. Team is 65 USD per month or 650 USD per year and includes 3 seats. Kavric is free to start with no credit card, and your first job is on us.
