BuildAxiom is an AI-powered estimating platform that converts field documentation—photos, measurements, and notes—into native Xactimate estimates. It drafts a room-by-room scope for estimator review, then produces a downloadable ESX file that reprices on the user's own price list. The platform addresses restoration and property damage claims, with plans starting at $899 per month.

Problem
Restoration contractors and claims teams spend significant time manually converting field documentation—photos, measurements, and notes—into structured Xactimate estimates. This process is error-prone, slow, and requires estimators to start from scratch on every job, delaying claim resolution and increasing administrative overhead.
Solution
BuildAxiom provides an AI-driven estimating platform that reads the photos, measurements, floor plans, and notes field crews already collect, then drafts a complete room-by-room Xactimate estimate. The system organizes output by room, assigns Xactimate codes, calculates editable quantities, and flags any item the photos cannot confirm as a question rather than a guess. Estimators review and adjust the draft in a web workspace, then download a native ESX file that opens directly in Xactimate and reprices on their own price list. The platform also offers PDF-to-Xactimate conversion and a comparison tool for contractor-versus-carrier estimate versions. An iOS app enables field techs to document losses on site and push jobs to their estimator's workspace instantly.
Target Audience
Primary customers are restoration contractors, property damage estimators, and claims teams in the property insurance industry who create Xactimate-based estimates for water, fire, and other structural losses.
