Three steps to a defensible price.

You already know how to price. Margin gives you the real cost data to back it up — so you know your margin before the proposal goes out.

01

Build your estimate.

Add roles, hours, contractors, expenses. Margin calculates the real cost — including overhead. Every line item flows through your actual cost rates, not a guess.

Set up your rates from what you already know: an hourly rate, your annual budget, or team salaries. You don't need perfect data. You need better data than a gut feeling.

02

Analyze your margin.

Every project gets a health score and a full breakdown. Open Insights to see your top profit drivers, how much you can discount and still hit target, and the exact rate or markup change that closes the gap when you can't.

Test discounts, cost overruns, and scope changes in real time — before the proposal goes out. The dashboard pulls every project's margin health into one view, so you spot the at-risk one before the quarter closes.

03

Price with confidence.

A defensible number built on real costs. Built on real costs, not estimates from memory. Export to PDF, Excel, or Word — ready for the proposal.

When scope changes, save a version and re-price. Version history tracks every change so you can see the margin impact of each "can you just..." before you say yes.

You set it up. They price from it.

Margin doesn't ask your team to change how they work. The owner or ops lead sets up the role catalog, overhead rate, and profit targets. Everyone else prices from a standardized system — no training, no ramp-up.

One person configures

Set up roles, rates, overhead, and profit targets once. The pricing engine handles the math from there.

Everyone prices consistently

New projects inherit correct numbers automatically. Consistent pricing across your team.
