Pull up the property line on a tablet, draw the pad or the patio right there on the concrete they're standing next to, and watch the 3D model build itself. Slope, control joints, forms, all of it. Then hand over a real number before you pack up the cones. Evalation Lab does the design and the estimate. Evalation runs everything else, the customer list, the schedule, the invoices, for $297 a month if you're one of the first 50 founding members. Locked for life.
You already know the math on a 4-inch slab in your sleep. Yardage, base prep, control joint spacing, the slope so water runs the right way off the patio. What you don't have time for is sitting at the kitchen table Tuesday night redoing a takeoff by hand because the homeowner changed the shape again, then typing a price into an email they won't open until Thursday. By then they've had a call back from the guy who showed them something on a screen standing in the yard.
That's the job you're actually losing. Not on price. On the wait.
I can screed a slab dead level by feel. I still can't get a homeowner to sign before the contractor with the iPad does.
Draw the layout right on-site: pad, patio, walkway, driveway apron, whatever shape the job calls for. Evalation Lab builds the 3D model live, forms, slope, control joints and all, so the homeowner sees the finished job before a single yard of concrete shows up.
The 3D model feeds straight into the estimate. Square footage, yardage, forms, finish, it's already calculated. You hand over a real price standing in the yard instead of promising to "email something over."
Every past customer, every referral source, every follow-up you meant to send, tracked in one system instead of three different phones and a shoebox of business cards.
Weather-dependent scheduling, draw requests, and invoicing live in the same system as the design tool. Evalation costs $297 per month for the first 50 founding members, locked for life, with no per-user fees. The next 500 members lock in at $416 a month for life. Same price whether you're running one crew or three.
We're not going to invent a customer story for concrete contractors just because it would look good on this page. We don't have one yet, and we'd rather tell you that straight than fake it.
What we do have: the same Lab engine, the same live 3D design and instant-estimate flow, already documented with a deck contractor closing at a 73% rate, at double the market price.1 Concrete pads, patios, and flatwork layouts run through the identical tool. We just haven't had a concrete crew put a number next to it in writing yet. When one does, it goes right here.
If you want to see the deck version of that result in the meantime, it's at /for/deck-builders.
Evalation Lab designs the pad or patio shape, slope, and joint layout in 3D for any concrete flatwork job. Whatever finish you're pouring, the layout and the estimate travel with the design.
$297 a month if you're one of the first 50 founding members, locked for life. The next 500 members lock in at $416 a month, also for life. After that, tiered plans follow. No per-user fees, no seat-based tiers, whether it's a two-man pour crew or a full operation. See /pricing for the full breakdown.
JobTread and tools like it handle job costing and scheduling, but none of the platforms in this category ship a native 3D design tool or auto-generated blueprint the way Evalation Lab does.4 Evalation replaces the takeoff spreadsheet, the separate estimating app, and the project tracker with one system. See the full comparison at /compare/jobtread.

CORR (Company, Operations, Relations, and Revenue) is a category of business platform that runs a contractor's entire company in one system, replacing the separate CRM, estimating, project management, and accounting tools contractors traditionally stitch together. Evalation is a CORR platform, and Evalation Lab is the 3D design module inside it. Read more at /what-is-corr.
Not yet, honestly. The 3D design and estimating flow is live for concrete pads, patios, and flatwork right now, and it's the same engine behind a documented 73% close rate for a deck contractor.1 We'll post a concrete-specific result the day we have one in writing.
Design your next pad or patio in 3D, hand over the estimate on the spot, and run the rest of the business from the same system.
