Three numbers that move when you stop using paper.
What manual estimation actually costs a Rwandan contractor on every project.
2–3 days Lost per project
Manual Excel estimation eats the days you should be on site or winning the next job.
20–40% Common error band
Notebook estimates routinely miss real spend by a third, enough to blow a foundation budget.
RWF 50–200k Cost of a QS, per project
Hiring a Quantity Surveyor is out of reach for the small contractors who need accuracy most.

The model reads the plan in Rwandan construction terms.
Rooms, dimensions, floor count, structural elements, openings. Trained on Rwandan standards (hollow-block walls, eco roofing, 12mm rebar), not global averages. Anything under 70% confidence routes to a licensed QS before you see it.
