ActiveThe platform for buying, selling and managing residential construction
This company has previously operated under “CostCertified”. A rename frequently marks a pivot in positioning or product — useful raw material for variant ideas.
About
We are building the Amazon for construction where contractors can give their customers an interactive shopping experience, turning the estimate into a point-of-sale, for the first time. It is a marketplace for general contractors, subcontractors, retailers and consumers, powered by a database of over 114,000 real items.
