From blueprint to final invoice. Five integrated layers. One platform. Zero competitors.
SDVOSB Certified  ·  U.S. Air Force Veteran  ·  NSF SBIR Applicant  ·  Tampa Bay, FL
The Problem

Commercial roofing contractors stitch together 5–8 disconnected tools to run their business. Estimation alone takes 4–12 hours per project. The $92B U.S. roofing market has 100,000+ contractors — and zero AI-native platforms serving commercial workflows. Residential is solved (Hover, Roofr, EagleView). Commercial is wide open.

The Solution

ABEPIM is a vertical operating system for commercial roofing contractors — AI-powered estimation, proposal generation, project management, job costing, and autonomous back-office operations. Working prototype operational on live projects today.

"As a Florida-licensed roofing contractor with 10 years in the field, I've seen every tool promise to 'revolutionize' estimating. ABEPIM is the first one that actually delivers. It pulls measurements, calculates materials, and generates a complete proposal in minutes — what used to take my team days. ABEPIM isn't just software — it's the difference between us bidding on a handful of jobs a month and bidding on twenty-plus. I've been doing this long enough to know when something is a gimmick and when something is a game-changer. This is a game-changer."
