Smart Estimate by Ciellos enhances project estimation by combining proven estimation workflows with Model Context Protocol (MCP)-enabled Copilot capabilities, bringing intelligent, context-aware assistance into your estimation process.

Built on the foundation of Power Estimate, Smart Estimate enables your team to create and manage hourly-rate project estimates while introducing a new, interactive way to work—allowing users to engage directly with an intelligent estimator assistant powered by your organization’s data model and knowledge base.

With Smart Estimate, you can continue to request and create estimates for new projects, ensuring that all relevant stakeholders are engaged. In addition, users can interact with the Smart Estimator to ask questions about estimates, explore system data, and receive guidance on building estimates based on existing structures and best practices.

The Smart Estimator is pre-configured with knowledge base content and an understanding of your estimation data model, enabling it to provide meaningful, context-relevant responses.

Users can also share files directly with the assistant for analysis and guidance, supporting more efficient estimate development workflows.

Smart Estimate includes optional web search capabilities, allowing the assistant to supplement its responses with additional relevant information when needed.

The solution is built within the Microsoft ecosystem, ensuring that all interactions are secure and restricted to users within your organization’s Azure tenant.

Users can access the Smart Estimator directly from within the application, where it opens a dedicated Copilot experience for seamless interaction.

Create estimates in Excel and sync them effortlessly with Smart Estimate, while leveraging a user-friendly interface and secure data storage in Dataverse and SharePoint for centralized access and management.
