Maitrio

Maitrio is a specialized invoicing and quotation software designed specifically for artisans, self-employed individuals, and small businesses in the construction sector in France. The platform streamlines the creation of professional quotes and invoices, enabling users to generate a PDF-ready quote from a client's SMS or WhatsApp message in under 30 seconds. This rapid turnaround is facilitated by an integrated artificial intelligence system that interprets client messages, extracts relevant details, estimates quantities and prices based on current market rates, and produces a structured quote. Users can then review and adjust the generated quote before sending it to the client. Key features of Maitrio include: - **Unlimited Quotes and Invoices**: Users can create as many quotes and invoices as needed without any restrictions, accommodating varying business volumes without additional costs. - **Compliance with French Regulations**: The software ensures that all generated PDFs adhere to French legal requirements, including mandatory mentions such as SIRET numbers, VAT details, and payment terms. The system prevents the generation of non-compliant documents by requiring the completion of essential profile fields. - **Automated Payment Reminders**: Maitrio automatically sends polite reminders for overdue invoices, escalating to firmer communications if necessary, thereby improving cash flow management without manual intervention. - **Voice Input Capability**: Recognizing the challenges of manual data entry, especially on-site, Maitrio offers a voice input feature. Users can dictate quotes directly into the system via their mobile devices, with the software transcribing and processing the input accordingly. - **Electronic Signature Integration**: Clients can sign quotes electronically through a secure link, providing a legally binding acceptance without the need for physical paperwork or in-person meetings. - **Intelligent Learning from Past Quotes**: The platform learns from previously created quotes, prioritizing the user's customary descriptions and pricing over generic market estimates, thus tailoring the experience to individual business practices. - **Seamless Quote-to-Invoice Conversion**: Accepted quotes can be converted into invoices with a single click, transferring all relevant details and calculations accurately, reducing the risk of errors associated with manual data entry. - **Comprehensive Client Management**: Maitrio maintains detailed client records, including contact information, internal notes, and a complete history of quotes and invoices, facilitating efficient client relationship management. - **Project Management with Progress Billing**: For long-term projects, the software supports billing based on project milestones or completion percentages, and allows for contract modifications through electronically signed amendments. - **Recurring Invoices**: Users can set up recurring invoices for ongoing services, with the system automatically generating and, if desired, sending invoices at specified intervals. - **Accounting Export**: Maitrio enables the export of invoice data in CSV format, compatible with most accounting software, simplifying financial record-keeping and reporting. - **Supplier Invoice Management**: With the upcoming electronic invoicing regulations in France, Maitrio is prepared to receive and process supplier invoices automatically through integration with authorized platforms, ensuring compliance and efficient management of incoming invoices. - **Customizable Service Catalog**: Users can create and manage a personalized catalog of services, including descriptions, pricing, and units, which can be easily incorporated into future quotes. - **Automated Handling of Deposits, Balances, and Credit Notes**: The software calculates deposit amounts, tracks billed amounts, and generates credit notes linked to original invoices, automating complex financial transactions and reducing manual calculations. Maitrio is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, catering to the specific needs of construction professionals in France. It offers a one-month free trial without requiring credit card information, allowing users to explore its features and assess its suitability for their business operations.

MakeMyBOQ

MakeMyBOQ is AI BOQ software for Indian construction, by SiteSetu. Upload PDF or DWG drawings (plans, sections, elevations and the structural set) and answer a few questions about the job. The agent measures every element trade by trade to IS 1200 and writes the bill of quantities in Excel: the abstract, the BOQ and the measurement sheet, with the working (No × L × B × D) behind every line and each deduction shown as its own "Less" row. You also get a PDF of your drawings marked with every measurement. Choose metric or feet, structure only or the full house, or a bar bending schedule by diameter. Rates stay yours: add your own or a schedule of rates such as the DSR. A SiteSetu engineer can prepare or check the BOQ as a paid service.

Metrea

Metrea is quantity takeoff and construction cost estimating software built for French construction cost consultants (économistes de la construction), quantity surveyors, engineering firms and project managers who price building works from the drawings they receive. Most takeoff tools ask you to trace every room and every wall by hand. Metrea starts from the plan itself. Upload a vector PDF, a scanned or photographed drawing, a Word document with the plan pasted in, a DWG or DXF file, or an IFC model from Autodesk® Revit® or ArchiCAD. Metrea detects the levels and the rooms, reads the room names and the areas the architect wrote on the drawing, and proposes the missing areas, perimeters and ceiling heights from the room outlines. You review each room and validate it in a click. Every quantity keeps its origin: written on the plan, measured on a validated outline, typed in by you, or estimated and still to be checked. Nothing reaches the estimate until it is validated, so every figure can be justified to a client, a contractor or a project owner. From the validated takeoff, Metrea measures floors, walls net of doors and windows, ceilings, skirting, wall tiling, facades and partitions, room by room and level by level. It then builds a cost estimate by trade package, in three finish levels and fourteen French regions, and produces the documents of a French tender: the DPGF bill of quantities, the CCTP technical specifications, a colour-coded markup plan and an Excel takeoff whose totals are live formulas. When contractors send back their priced bills, Metrea compares the bids line by line on the same scope. Projects change, and so do drawings. When the architect issues a new revision, Metrea compares it with the previous one and shows the impact on the estimate, with your adjustments carried over. For BIM workflows, the Metrea plugin for Autodesk® Revit® sends the model to Metrea in one click, with its levels, rooms and the areas calculated by Revit. Work as a firm. Colleagues join your workspace by invitation or with the firm's e-mail domain, with four roles: owner, project manager, quantity surveyor and read-only. Several people can work on the same project at the same time: the room being edited is reserved for whoever is on it, and every change is logged with its author. A version is frozen at each export, and the project can be rolled back to any earlier version. Each room goes through a validation workflow, surveyed, verified then validated, according to each person's role. Pro includes two seats and Cabinet five; a seat is added whenever a colleague joins and removed when they leave. Metrea runs in the browser, with a French interface and nothing to install. Plans start at €149 per month on annual billing. Your first project is free, up to three plan pages, with no credit card required.
