Automation for Trades
Automate the Grind. Stay on the Tools.
Rignite is an optimisation system for construction and trade businesses. We provide solutions to significantly reduce workflow bottlenecks that take up much of your time, such as quoting & estimation automations.
Manual takeoff from PDF plans costs hours per job, and every hour spent quoting is an hour not spent winning the next one.
Takeoffs eat your day
Manual measurement from PDF plans takes your best estimator hours per job. That's time that could go to winning the next one.
Errors cost you margin
A single measurement mistake on a large residential build can cost thousands. Manual takeoffs are error-prone by nature.
Quoting delays lose jobs
Builders who quote faster win more work. If your quote takes 3 days and a competitor delivers in hours, you've already lost.
What makes this different from generic automation software?
Rignite is built around your existing suppliers, job types and quoting process, not a template you bend your business to fit.
Quote Builder
Send professional quotes in a fraction of the time you normally would.
Supplier pricing, drafted for you
Rignite drafts the price requests to your suppliers for you to approve, sends them from your own email, and reads the replies back against the right lines for you to confirm. Subcontractor rate requests and replies sit in the same job.
Quotes sent from your own inbox
Finished quotes go to your client from your own email address when you send them, branded and attached. No retyping, no delays, no quote left sitting in drafts.
Scope of Works Automation
Smart scope of works generated straight from your plans, automatically accounting for risks, allowances, and exclusions so nothing gets missed and every quote stays watertight.
The Rignite Workflow
From plans on the desk to a quote in the client's inbox.
What does automated quoting actually Acheive?
Supplier requests are drafted for you to approve, the scope of works is written from your plans, and the finished quote is built ready for you to send.
How much time does automated quoting save?
Our time model assumes Rignite removes 40% to 80% of desk quoting time depending on tier. These are modelled figures, not results measured at clients. Enter your own rate and volume to see your number.
Pick your trade and plan, then enter your numbers.
These figures come from our own time model, not results measured at clients. Rignite is modelled to save a share of your desk quoting time per tier (Calculate 40%, Automate 65%, Complete 80%), valued conservatively at $80/hr. "Money saved" counts time only. "Net benefit" adds a conservative client-conversion estimate from your own job value & margin, which is clearly your assumption and not a guarantee. "Quote volume" is freed capacity, not extra work we assume you win. All prices exclude GST.

What does Rignite cost?
Plans run $97, $399 and $849 per month plus a one-off setup fee. All prices exclude GST. Pay annually and save 20% on the monthly fee.
Rignite isn't software you sign up for and figure out. It's an operating system for how your business quotes, built around your suppliers, your job types, your margins and your templates, and handed over working.
The setup fee is the build. We offer 3 tiers that provide you with features that automate common processes in the estimation process. If you're looking for more bespoke automations to improve your business efficiency in specific areas, then an enterprise plan is the one for you.
Calculate is the low-risk way in at $1,000 setup plus $97 a month. Start there, watch it run on your own jobs for a few months, and only move up if your quoting volume justifies it. We would rather you started small and stayed than started big and left.
