What is InstaBid?

InstaBid is a web-based solution designed for estimating and finalizing projects, specifically crafted for residential contractors and specialized trades. It enables users to create detailed and customizable estimates using an online form, allowing them to accurately evaluate material and labor costs, adjust pricing and markup, and determine the best timing for submitting their bids to clients. The platform encompasses the entire process from obtaining approvals for proposals and contracts to collecting deposits through Stripe and organizing schedules on a calendar. Furthermore, it offers features such as managing signed change orders, following up with clients, soliciting bids from subcontractors, and producing branded PDF estimates for contractors. By providing this all-inclusive approach, InstaBid seeks to simplify both the estimating process and client interactions into a cohesive workflow that empowers smaller contracting businesses to manage their projects from the initial idea all the way to an accepted proposal and a scheduled start date. This seamless integration of various tools and processes not only alleviates administrative tasks but also allows contractors to dedicate more of their time to executing high-quality work. With InstaBid, contractors can enhance their operational efficiency and improve their overall service delivery.

What is Bolster?

Bolster revolutionizes the entire project management workflow for residential construction professionals and contractors. With its innovative estimating software, which incorporates custom assemblies and automated pricing based on supplier data, Bolster ensures precise and rapid estimates across all types of projects. The software enhances traditional quotes by transforming them into dynamic, interactive point-of-sale presentations for homeowners, significantly increasing your chances of securing more jobs. You can also propose upgrades, selections, and optional items, thereby boosting the overall job size through customer-driven upsells included directly in your proposals. Following project bookings via the Pipeline CRM, the built-in automated Scheduling feature clearly communicates project timelines to contractors, subcontractors, and homeowners alike. Additionally, Bolster's Client Portal enables customers to monitor the progress of their projects and process online payments upon task completion. Contractors benefit from immediate payment access through a Bolster Business Account, allowing them to utilize both virtual and physical cards for their expenditures. This seamless integration of features not only enhances operational efficiency but also significantly improves customer satisfaction throughout the construction process.
