How it works

Three steps. No training day.

If you can flick someone a PDF, you can use Plumb.

  1. 01

    Drop in the tender

    Tender, scope, plans, that email with the PDF nobody's opened. Drag it in. 300 pages is fine — Plumb reads the lot.

  2. 02

    Plumb prices it

    It pulls out every line, prices the job against your own rates, and flags the clauses that'll bite you. You check it. You didn't have to write it.

  3. 03

    Send the quote, win the work

    Out the door the same day, not next week. Bid on the jobs you'd normally let slide because there weren't enough hours.

What you get

Quote faster. Buy right.
Forget nothing.

Early access Coming to Plumb

Get paid the week
you claim.

The thing that actually sinks builders isn't bad quoting — it's waiting 30, 60, 90 days to get paid on a claim you've already earned. We're building claim financing into Plumb: lodge the claim, get the cash now. Because Plumb already priced the job, the money's quick and it's cheap.

Pricing

Priced like a tool, not a platform.

One simple monthly price for your crew. Costs less than the hours it gives you back on the first quote. We'll sort the exact number on a ten-minute call — no demo theatre.

  • No lock-in. Try it on one job.
  • Your prices stay yours. We don't share your rates.
  • Set up in an arvo. No IT, no training day.
