Where a spreadsheet hits its limit
Excel built the shop. Steelplumb takes it from there.
Spreadsheets are great at lots of things. These six situations are the ones that get harder every time the crew grows or the project count climbs. Steelplumb is what we built for those, while keeping the XLSX export your accountant already trusts.

When the accountant needs an XLSX, you're rebuilding it row by row.
Maple_Ridge_estimate.xlsx
24 KB · 4 sheets · ready to send
One-click XLSX export. Same format your accountant already trusts.
What it looks like
A spreadsheet that knew it should be an app.
Three screens cover ninety percent of a GC's estimating day, and every one of them already exports the XLSX your accountant still wants.
Portfolio at a glance
Active projects, total bid value, average margin, and cost-per-square-foot, without a single pivot table.
Excel-style editing, database brain
Edit line items inline. Catalog changes propagate. The whole crew sees the same numbers at the same time.
A catalog you can override
Ships with 86 CSI MasterFormat divisions tuned for Denver-region pricing. Adjust to your suppliers; estimates rebuild automatically.
Pricing
Per-seat, per-month. No annual contracts.
A 10-person GC pays five grand a year for RSMeans data their estimator stops opening in week two. Steelplumb ships with a good-enough catalog and the workflow layer that data alone can't give you.
