Description
BuildCost: Construction Cost & Job Costing Budget Tracker
Tired of surprise cost overruns, lost paper receipts, untracked cash advances to workers, and messy spreadsheet notes during your build?
BuildCost is the simple, 100% offline-first construction cost tracker designed for owner-builders, homeowners self-managing a renovation, and small local contractors running multiple job sites.
Keep your project strictly on budget by tracking material purchases, worker daily wages, supplier credit balances, and project fees in one unified, real-time ledger.
THE PROBLEM WITH CONSTRUCTION COST TRACKING • Cost Overruns & Guesswork: Material prices fluctuate, and without a live Budget vs. Actual tracker, projects quickly go 20-30% over budget. • Cash Advances & Daily Wages: Paying workers daily wages or cash advances on scrap paper leads to missing records and payout disputes. • Informal Supplier Credit: Buying materials on credit from local hardware suppliers makes it hard to know your exact balance owed. • Over-engineered Apps: Most construction tools are bloated enterprise software (BIM, RFIs, complex submittals) requiring endless training.
HOW BUILDCOST SOLVES IT BuildCost cuts out the complexity. It stores all your project financial data locally on your device with zero cloud dependency. Log expenses in 5 seconds on-site, estimate exact material quantities before buying, and share clean PDF/Excel reports or WhatsApp updates in one tap.
CORE FEATURES & CAPABILITIES 1. UNIFIED CONSTRUCTION BUDGET LEDGER • Set overall project budgets and category budgets for Materials, Labour, and Fees. • Track live Budget vs. Actual spending with real-time remaining balance alerts. • Multi-currency support with custom currency symbol formatting.
2. WORKER ROSTER & DAILY WAGE TRACKER • Add workers with daily or hourly rates. • Log days or hours worked, auto-calculate wages due, and mark payments as paid or unpaid. • Log cash advances against future wages so running worker balances are always accurate.
3. MATERIAL LEDGER & QUANTITY CALCULATOR • Log material purchases with unit costs, quantities, and supplier details. • Built-in Material Quantity Calculator: Estimate concrete volume, tile counts, wall paint coverage, and brick/masonry needs right on-site. • Supplier Vendor-Credit Ledger: Track running balances owed to suppliers for credit purchases.
4. 1-TAP RECEIPT & SITE PHOTO CAPTURE • Attach geotagged, timestamped photos directly to cost entries. • Keep an immutable visual record of delivery slips, hardware receipts, and completed work.
5. SITE SCHEDULE, DAILY LOGS & CHECKLISTS • Track construction phases, timeline milestones, and completion progress. • Keep a daily site log for weather, site conditions, and work progress. • Manage site issue tickets and quality control checklists.
6. PAYMENT DISBURSEMENTS & BILLING • Record progress payments, contractor disbursements, and milestone releases. • Instant disbursement summaries for clear financial tracking.
7. WHATSAPP SUMMARIES & PDF / EXCEL EXPORTS • Share 1-tap itemized daily summaries via WhatsApp or system apps. • Export professional PDF reports, itemized Excel sheets, CSVs, or full JSON project backups.
8. 100% OFFLINE-FIRST & PRIVATE • Zero account sign-up required and zero cloud backend dependency. • Works anywhere—including remote job sites with no mobile signal. • All data remains private and stored locally on your device in SQLite.
WHO IS BUILDCOST FOR? • Owner-Builders & Self-Builders: Managing a new home build from ground up. • Homeowners: Self-managing a home remodel, kitchen renovation, or house extension. • Small Contractors & Trades: Managing 1–4 active job sites (masons, carpenters, plumbers, electricians). • Site Supervisors: Needing quick, friction-free daily expense and wage logging on-site.
