In use by Australian residential builders
The platform
Three deeply-integrated modules. Built specifically for the way Australian residential builders, suppliers, and tradies actually work.
Cut quoting time with AI takeoff from PDF plans, mapped to NCC 2022 line items.
Built-in marketplace. Suppliers quote back inside the platform — not via email.
Phase Tracker, magic-link tradie portal, site diary, SOPA-aware claims.
The full build, one platform
One connected workflow — every stage of the build lives in the same platform.
No more switching between 5 tools to run a build.
The supplier moat
Most platforms just look up supplier prices. Build Margin runs a real two-sided marketplace: suppliers have their own portal, product catalogue, and RFQ inbox. They quote back to you in-platform.
Sent in one click from inside the estimate.
Compare side-by-side. No more chasing across email and SMS.
Built for you
Australia-first, not retrofitted
7-star NatHERS, condensation, livable housing, waterproofing — pre-mapped into estimates.
Fixed-price, cost-plus, and renovation contracts with the right milestone templates.
VIC payment claims with magic words and 10-day deadline tracking. NSW, QLD, WA coming.
“The platform replaced three separate tools we were running. Quoting feels noticeably faster, and the client experience is more professional than anything we used to send.”
