The Vision

MeasureFirst was envisioned to align expectations for all parties in construction projects. With over 12 years of real estate experience and running a construction company, we noticed customers often have a vision and budget without knowing true costs until they get multiple estimates or quotes.

The Homework

Trusting in the vision and purpose, the research began with a focus on setting realistic expectations and aligning all parties involved. Inspired by similar concepts from other popular software platforms, we aimed to create one stop shop innovative technology solution that would be user-friendly, promote local businesses, and be convenient. Our goal was to provide a proficient tool that offers the necessary resources to visualize and estimate costs effectively, providing a tangible and shareable reference at a reasonable price.

December 2024
Disrupting the Industry

Following a comprehensive investigation and continuous workflow improvements, the design phase of MeasureFirst began. We adopted a methodical approach in carefully selecting all parties involved. Significant progress has been achieved in finalizing the overall brand and software identity to emphasize unique features. These include precise measurements, automatic floorplan generation, material pricing from local retailers, itemized cost breakdowns, and 3D renderings.
