Accelerate quote approvals
Buildxact can help your business move from quote to contract quicker. Chose how you want homeowners to view your quote – via email or Client Portal. Better yet, give them the option to digitally accept the quote then and there. So even if you can’t get out to see the customer, the job can still progress with no hold-ups. Â

They are concepts, but if there’s a feature you’re super keen to get your hands on, or you are a Buildxact fan who wants to have a say in the development process, Buildxact Labs is for you.
