Metre2 Rate Builder is a simple, focused tool for building, organising, and exporting resource-based rates. Designed for estimators, QS teams, and anyone who needs clean, structured pricing, it helps you break down labour, materials, plant, and other resources into consistent, repeatable rate items.
Key features designed to help you work smarter.
Create clean, consistent rates using labour, materials, plant, subcontract, and other cost components. Rate Builder helps you break work items down properly, ensuring every price you produce is transparent and easy to adjust.
Store your rates in a searchable, organised library that grows with your workflow. Duplicate, edit, or refine existing rates to build a catalogue of repeatable pricing you can rely on job after job.
Quickly change quantities, resource costs, or markup values and see updated totals instantly. Perfect for refining rates, exploring options, or responding to last-minute pricing changes.
Turn a single rate into multiple variations with different specifications or quantities. Copying and modifying items makes it easy to maintain consistent pricing across projects or teams.
Export your finished rate items into clean, usable formats for BOQs, estimating systems, spreadsheets, or internal templates. Your work stays structured and ready for whatever system you use next.
Metre2 Rate Builder works entirely on your device — no accounts, no cloud, no clutter. A simple, focused interface means you can start building rates immediately without setup or configuration.
