FAQ
Questions before you start?
Where does CostKit's cost data come from?
We layer several sources: a published cost reference used by professional estimators, current US government data on construction labor wages and material price trends, regional adjustments for state, climate zone, and labor-market signals, and — over time — anonymized actuals reported by contractors who use CostKit. The numbers aren't AI-invented.
How accurate are the estimates?
Feasibility-grade — good enough to set client expectations, win bids, and check sub-quotes. On our internal benchmark across trades and regions, median estimates land inside the expected range 75–80% of the time. In practical terms: a $15K bath remodel estimate is typically within $12K–$18K of the final job. A $80K kitchen remodel is typically within $68K–$92K. For binding contracts you should still validate against your supplier quotes.
How long does an estimate take?
Most estimates complete in 8–15 seconds. The first PDF download can take 3–5 seconds for the rendering service to warm up; subsequent PDFs are near-instant.
Can I edit line items after the AI generates them?
Yes, on paid plans. Adjust quantities, unit costs, descriptions, overhead, and contingency. The estimate recalculates automatically.
What counts as an estimate against my monthly limit?
Each new generation. Re-downloading the PDF, editing line items, or duplicating an existing estimate doesn't cost an additional estimate.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from Settings — no fees, no contracts. Paid features stay active through the end of your billing period, then revert to Free.
