costed.app is the cloud-native rebuild of the estimating tools Takeoff & Estimating Pty Ltd has been refining with Australian builders for years. Sydney team, Australian-hosted, opinionated about how a job should run.
The estimating tools most Australian builders rely on were built for desktops in the 1990s. They still work — but they keep your BOQ stuck on one PC, your suppliers’ prices in spreadsheets, and your progress claims in your head. Two estimators can’t price the same job at the same time. Site can’t see what the office quoted. Sending a quote means emailing a PDF that’s already out of date.
We’ve watched our customers wrestle with those constraints for years. costed.app is the version we wanted them to have: same estimating muscle memory, but live in the cloud, on any device, with everyone on the same page.
Takeoff & Estimating Pty Ltd has supported Australian builders, estimators and quantity surveyors for years — through software implementations, training, migrations, and the day-to-day questions that come up when a tender is due Friday and the spreadsheet won’t balance. costed.app is the natural next step: bringing that experience into a product we own end to end, so the improvements we’ve been wanting to ship can ship.
You can export everything in costed.app to spreadsheet at any time. No hostage taking. AU-hosted, encrypted backups, your account closes cleanly when you say so.
The product is built around the people pricing the jobs, not the people approving the budgets. Speed of edit, fidelity to a real BOQ, and trust in the numbers come before everything else.
When something is on fire, you don’t want a chatbot. You want someone who knows estimating, knows your job, and answers in Sydney business hours.
Sydney, Australia. The product is hosted on Australian infrastructure with daily encrypted backups. Support is delivered from Sydney during AU business hours. We’re proudly Australian-built, designed to scale to international customers without losing that.
Whether you’re sizing up the product, migrating from a legacy estimating tool, or just curious about what we’re building — we’d like to hear from you.
