Overview

Bolster is a Calgary construction management platform, backed by Y Combinator, with a US office in Delaware. Residential contractors build estimates using AutoCost pricing drawn from more than 100 million construction items and AI-guided takeoff, present options and upgrades so clients can choose selections, and send digitally signable contracts. Approved estimates generate schedules, material lists and budgets automatically, revisions and change orders trigger new approvals, and progress payments, invoicing and business bank accounts are built in, with a client portal, messaging and CRM pipeline. A Cloud Office Manager service provides outsourced admin. Bolster syncs with QuickBooks and is used by remodelers, custom builders, landscapers, roofers and deck and fence contractors.
