The Signed Proposal Alternative to SimplyWise
SimplyWise Cost Estimator is a fast way to get a ballpark from a photo — but the output is an estimate, not something a client signs. Takeoff Convert finishes the job: describe the work, get an itemized bid, and send a branded proposal your client opens, accepts, and e-signs online — with scope narrative, your templates, your price book, and your markup, tracked from sent to signed.
