Capabilities // AI Bid Estimating

AI bid estimating for contractors

AI that reads long scoping documents, identifies required materials, applies your pricing and drafts a bid in your format.

About Us

Tenre is a software and applied AI company based in Sacramento. We build custom software and AI systems for the businesses Silicon Valley forgot.

We start with the workflow that costs your team the most, scope it to one measurable outcome, and ship it into production with guardrails.

Then we host it, maintain it, and keep improving it, and we train your team to run it.

Overview

How ai bid estimating works with Tenre

Commercial bids start with long scoping documents. Estimators spend days reading them, building takeoffs and pricing line items before a bid is ready.

Tenre builds bid estimators that ingest scoping documents, identify the materials and work they require, apply your pricing, and draft a bid in your company's format. Your estimator reviews and adjusts it instead of starting from a blank page.

Our Capabilities

What we build

  1. /0.1

    Scope document ingestion

    Large scoping packages are read end to end and broken into the trades, materials and requirements that matter for your bid.

  2. /0.2

    Materials identification

    Required fixtures, fittings and materials are listed with quantities and the section of the document they came from.

  3. /0.3

    Pricing

    Line items are priced from your own price lists and supplier data, so the estimate reflects what you actually pay.

  4. /0.4

    Bid drafting

    A submittable draft is generated in your bid template, with assumptions and exclusions called out for review.
