Budget, jobsite and warehouse on the same slab.
SlabBlu builds software for contractors. Budget works out what the job costs, Cowork coordinates the people who build it and Storage controls the material that leaves the warehouse. All three work on the same project, with the same users and the same numbers.
No contract. Prices in US dollars.
What the job costs, line item by line item.
Build the budget from cost sheets: every line item knows the materials, labor and equipment it takes, and how much of each goes into one unit. The schedule, purchasing, billing and cash flow all come from there.
- Cost sheets
- Materials, labor, equipment and subcontracts with yield and waste. Change a price in the catalog and it changes in every line item that uses it.
- Material takeoff
- How much cement, rebar and labor the whole job needs, ready to quote and buy.
- Schedule
- A Gantt chart built from the budget, with physical progress, S-curve and a finish date based on the actual pace.
- Billing and contracts
- Billings, change orders, advances, retainage and subcontractor payments.
- Purchasing and invoices
- Purchase orders with approval, and invoices that keep the net amount apart from the tax.
- Reports
- Executive report, PDF and Excel with your logo, and a QuickBooks connection.
- Work in the United States
- AIA G702 and G703 billing, and WH-347 certified payroll.

Line item total
Tax never goes inside the line item: it's added once, to the budget subtotal.
Change a yield or a price. Cells also take math, like 7/20.
The field and the office looking at the same drawing.
Cowork brings together what happens on site: drawings with markups and measurements, questions to the designer, daily logs, inspections and tasks. It works on a phone and keeps your work even without signal.
- Drawings
- PDF, DWG, DXF and IFC with markups, photos and measurements at a calibrated scale. The whole team sees the markups.
- RFIs and submittals
- Technical questions and material approvals, with who has to answer and by when.
- Daily logs
- Weather, crew by trade and by company, delays with their cause, and visitors. The record that holds up in a claim.
- Inspections and punch list
- Checklists, punch items with before and after photos, and safety talks signed by the crew.
- Meetings
- Recorded calls, minutes and action items that carry over to the next meeting.
- Team
- Tasks with dependencies, project chat and files with every version.

Every bag that leaves the warehouse, with a name and an activity.
The foreman requests material from a phone, against the budget activity. Whoever has the role to approve it approves it, the warehouse issues it and the inventory updates itself.
- Requests from the field
- Made against the budget activity, with no paper lists to lose.
- Approvals by role
- Nothing leaves without approval, and each person's role decides who approves.
- Traceable issues
- What left, how much, for whom and for which work front.
- Inventory and stock cards
- Stock by project and by material, with the history of every receipt and issue.
- Minimums and alerts
- When a material drops below its minimum, you hear about it before the crew stops.
- iOS and Android apps
- Works in the warehouse without signal and syncs when the connection comes back.

Movements
- Nothing has left the warehouse for this request yet.
A change that starts in the field reaches the billing on its own.
With the Suite, the three products share the project. What used to travel by email and screenshots now follows a path with an owner at every step.
On site
The superintendent logs the change in Cowork, with photos and its place on the drawing.
In the office
The estimator picks it up in Budget, prices it with the project catalog and builds the change order.
Once approved
Its prices are locked and go into the next billing.
SlabBlu Intelligence
AI reads the project. The system still does the math.
SlabBlu Intelligence works inside Budget. The model interprets what you give it: a drawing, a progress photo, a new line item. Prices, quantities and dates come from your catalog and from the same formulas the rest of the system uses.
- Smart Cost
- Drafts the cost sheet for a new line item with the resources in your catalog, at your prices.
- Smart Price
- Looks up the price of a material, on the web too, and shows you where it came from.
- Smart Time
- Sorts activities by stage and works out their duration from the quantity of work.
- Progress from a photo
- Reads a jobsite photo and proposes the progress of the activities it shows.
- Scanned drawings
- Takes measurements from a PDF or a photo of a drawing; the system calculates the quantities.
- Budget review
- Finds line items with no direct cost, prices out of range and dates that don't add up.
- Project chat
- Answers questions about the budget, schedule and spending with the project's own data.
Your plan depends on how many jobs you run at once.
A project is one active budget. Every plan comes with a 15-day trial, no contract, and you cancel from your profile.

Construction software made in Central America.
SlabBlu Technologies is a construction technology company. We work from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, and in the United States we operate through our LLC in Miami.
What we build comes from how work actually gets done on site: billings with advances and retainage, subcontractor payments, purchases that need a second signature, tax added at the end instead of line by line. And for the United States, AIA billing and certified payroll.
- Approved means locked
- An approved change order keeps its prices even if the cost sheet changes later.
- Everyone sees their own
- Each company sees only its own data, and each person only the projects they were invited to, with their role.
- The system does the math
- AI helps read and interpret; prices and quantities come from your cost sheets.
- In your language
