HVAC Estimating & Proposal Software
HVAC estimating software that prices from margin, not markup
At one truck, estimating lives in the owner’s head and the margins hold because the person pricing the job is the person reading the P&L. At four trucks two advisors quote the same changeout $1,800 apart, and a 40% markup turns out to have been a 28.6% margin all along. This is where that process gets written down.
What the demo shows
- Open a live estimate and change the equipment cost, watch the margin move
- Switch between markup and margin pricing and see the gap in dollars
- Build a Good / Better / Best proposal at a constant target margin
- Preview the customer-facing proposal and approve it as the customer

What it does
Price a job the way your P&L measures it.
Margin, not markup
Enter the margin you want and the system solves for price, showing the resulting margin live while the estimate is being built, not in a report next quarter.
Assemblies that cannot forget
A "3-ton changeout" is one line that expands to every material it needs. Starting from a full list and deleting is far more reliable than building one from memory in a driveway.
Burdened labour
Wages plus payroll taxes, workers’ comp, insurance and PTO. Costing a $28/hr technician at $28/hr understates a 16-hour job by over $100 before overhead.
Good / Better / Best
Three tiers priced at one target margin, so nobody is steering. Change a cost and all three reprice together.
A proposal worth the price
Scope, exclusions, warranty split between parts and labour, expiry date and a signature block. The sections that prevent the argument.
Nothing sits at "sent"
Every estimate carries a status and an owner until it is sold or lost, because an unfollowed estimate is a job you already paid to create.

Run your own numbers first
No sign-up and no email wall. These run entirely in your browser. We never see what you type.
HVAC Estimate Calculator
Price a whole HVAC job the way the estimate should be built: equipment, materials, burdened labour, permits and overhead, then a selling price set from the margin you actually want.
HVAC Markup vs Margin
Enter a cost and either a markup or a target margin. See the selling price, the gross profit, the true margin and the equivalent markup. Plus what a discount costs you.
HVAC Labour Rate
Your billable rate has to carry three things: what the tech costs you, what the business costs to run, and the profit you want left over. This works out all three.
Questions
What this is, and what it is not
Is this a product I can buy a seat in?
No. It is a working demonstration of what BDEVY builds. The point is to let you feel the workflow before a conversation about building it around your own pricing rules, assemblies and approval limits.
Do I need to sign up?
No. There is a demo login shown on the screen, no account is created and nothing you type leaves your browser.
Can it connect to what we already use?
That is usually the point. Most contractors keep their existing field-service or accounting platform and add the layer they are missing rather than migrating everything.
