Mirror Engineer reads your plan set and measures the takeoff off the sheet. You set your own prices. Your subs' bids line up side by side. Every number lands on your summary, marked with where it came from.
One SAMPLE job, start to finish: plans in, measured, priced, calculated, bids awarded, on the summary — then the same software on a phone.
SAMPLE A SAMPLE job. No real job, no real prices. Cut from the full eight-minute walk — ask Alma for the whole thing.
Said plainly.
One software. The header and the menu stay put; every step opens in the middle.
Drop the plan set. It reads the title block and the scale; click the corners and it measures the run.
Type your price per foot and per yard. Dollars move only when you press SET.
A rake wall with a window, a door and two T-walls, framed to scale, with a cut list.
It reads them and shows what is in your total and what is not. Award one.
Each line is marked with its source: STATED is your price, QUOTED is the awarded bid.
The same software on a phone. Line 05 matches the computer.
What you get: one file. It opens in your browser, and your plans stay on your computer — nothing uploads.

A question, a demo on your own plans, or a seat in the beta. This opens your own mail app or phone — nothing is uploaded anywhere.
