How does it work?

From a property description to a quote with devices and fittings

1

Describe the job

AI sets the type: alarm, CCTV, both together, intercom or smart home. It takes the numbers of sensors, cameras and points from the description when it gives them.

2

Check the items

Installation per point and per camera, control panel, recorder, cables and fittings. Devices with quantities shown separately, and when the equipment is the client’s—installation with the company’s cables and fittings.

3

Send the quote

The “Inspection and on-site estimate” item priced at 0 and travel per km are in the estimate. You change every price, a PDF estimate for the client.

What the work looks like in the app

Real screens from a sample apartment estimate, with made-up client details.

The app is in Polish today, so the screens below are Polish. An English version is in preparation.

You describe the job, AI sets up the project

Write what needs doing or add a photo of the floor plan. AI sets the floor area, the number of rooms and the scope of work, and you see the estimate amounts straight away.

Labor with working time

Every labor category has an amount and the number of working days for the crew, and you decide whether the client sees the time. Next to it you see a summary of every part of the estimate. Items you repeat can be saved in your own library (in PRO for companies) and added to the next project.

What the calculator gives an alarm, CCTV and smart home company

Alarm, cameras, intercom and smart home in one template.

  • Wired or wireless alarm

    With no number of sensors, the template assumes 8 points. To the control panel it adds programming, a siren, a keypad and a GSM module with a phone app.

  • Cameras by location

    Cameras on the building, indoors and on a pole have separate rates. With no number, the template assumes 4 cameras and matches a 4- or 8-channel recorder to their number (up to 8 cameras).

  • Wi-Fi cameras

    Wi-Fi cameras with recording to a card or the cloud, with installation and setup. Phone viewing is included in both variants.

  • Intercom to the garden gate

    A video intercom or an audio intercom, an electric strike—unless there already is one—a card reader and a cable to the garden gate in a trench per lin. m.

  • Smart home

    Wireless: modules in wall boxes and a hub, 10 points by default. Wired: modules in the distribution board, a controller and programming, 40 points by default. Plus 3 scenes.

  • 8% VAT, work outside the building 23%

    The template has one rate, 8% (installation in a residential building within the floor-area limit). A camera on a pole and a cable in a trench are work outside the building, usually at 23% VAT: change the rate or split the quote. Confirm the rate with your accountant.

Sample jobs

Typical jobs and how the calculator sets them up. You set your own prices.

  • Alarm in a single-story house: 6 motion sensors and 4 door/window contacts

    The client wants notifications on their phone. The template works out 10 wired points, a control panel with programming, a siren, a keypad and a GSM module.

  • Property CCTV: 4 cameras on the house and one on a pole by the gate

    The template works out the cameras on the building and on the pole separately, an 8-channel recorder with a hard drive and phone viewing.

  • Video intercom at a garden gate 20 m from the house, electric strike already in place

    The template works out the video intercom installation and device, and 20 lin. m of cable to the garden gate in a trench with a conduit.

Data moves with one click. Each tool also works on its own, and nothing is saved without your say-so.

Contract and estimate with the project data

Open the document generator from the project menu. Client, address, scope and amounts are already in. Send the contract to the client to sign online, and after the job prepare an acceptance report, plus an addendum when the scope changes.

Acceptance report after the job

Below the contract in the generator, choose a work acceptance report or a contract addendum. The parties, address and contract date carry over on their own, and the client signs the report on the screen.

  • Room planner
    Room planner: floor plan of two rooms in 3D view with dimensions

    Room planner

    Draw the floor plan with the area of every room and look at it in 3D. Open the planner in one click from the project menu, and the whole plan is saved in the link—set it aside or pass it on. Rooms with their floor area and perimeter go from the planner into the app without retyping: into a new project, for the same points as any new project, or into a project you already have (then the rooms from the plan replace its rooms; items and totals stay in the estimate, check them after the import).

  • Chrome extension
    Chrome extension: panel with a product ready to add to a project

    A product from a shop straight into the estimate

    The Chrome extension takes what the shop gives—usually the name, photo and price—from the shop page into the project and room you choose. Whatever the shop does not give, you select on the page and say what it is—a name, a price, a dimension, a color, a finish, a material, a catalog number, the manufacturer or the supplier. In October 2026 we checked it on 24 Polish online shops; it is not limited to selected partners.

  • Document generator

Not there yet. This is how it is meant to look, so you know where this is going.

  • Installations from the plan

    Sockets, light points and water connections placed on the plan will go into the installation estimate.

  • Price updates through the Chrome extension

    Refresh the price of a product added from a shop right from the project.

  • Large estimates in the generator

    All your pricing, with every item, will go into the estimate, not just the category totals.

Questions about pricing alarms, CCTV and intercoms

How many detectors does the template price when the client gives no number?

8 alarm points, plus the control panel, keypad, siren and GSM module. You change the number of detectors in the description or the template questions.

How many cameras are in a CCTV quote?

4 when the description gives no number. Installation depends on the place: indoors, on a wall or on a pole. Wired cameras come with a recorder; Wi-Fi cameras are priced without one.

Is an electric strike priced with an intercom?

Yes, fitting an electric strike in the gate or door. When the client writes that a strike is already there, the item drops out.

How many smart home points does the template assume?

10 in a wireless system and 40 in a wired one, plus 3 scenes or automations. You change the number of points in the description or the template questions.

What VAT rate does this work have?

The template uses 8%, as for work in a residential building. Work outside the building usually has 23%, so check the rate with your accountant; you change it in the project.
