Dates slip. We commit to the next quarter (Q3 2026) and let the others
flex with reality. Items in build today are 80–90 % likely to ship on
time; items in design are 50–70 %; items only planned are placeholders
for direction, not promises.
Want to push a roadmap item up? Email
roadmap@bidyou.ai with your
company size, use case, and which item matters most. Paying customers
get priority weighting; private-beta tenants get heard.

Q3 2026
Active build · ships next
Spec-compliance checker
In build
Cross-checks the BoQ against the Caderno de Encargos (CE/spec) to flag mismatches — e.g., spec mandates LSZH cable, BoQ has PVC. Surfaces in a sanity-check panel before bid submission.
Multi-user concurrent editing
In build
Row-level locks + version columns let multiple estimators work on the same project simultaneously without overwrite collisions. Workaround until shipped: divide sections among estimators.
Drawing-vs-spec discrepancy detection
In design
Cross-references DWG block detection against the spec / CE to flag items present in drawings but missing from BoQ (and vice-versa).
Cycle detection on composition trees
Planned
DAG validation prevents A → B → A loops at the database layer. Important before opening parametric composition editing to a wider audience.
Multi-currency at checkout
Planned
EUR / GBP / USD / AUD by locale. Stripe Tax handles VAT. Currently EUR-only; unblocks UK / IE / US / AU market launch.
Audio transcription minute gating
In build
Tier-based monthly counter for Whisper-transcribed audio hours (2 h Starter / 20 h Pro / unlimited Enterprise). Currently uncapped — gating ships alongside HTTP 402 quota plumbing.
In-app upgrade modal (HTTP 402 handler)
In build
When a Free / Starter user hits a tier limit, a soft modal explains the limit and links to /pricing/?from=<limit_key> (deep-link + row pulse already shipped on the marketing side).
Q4 2026
Commitment window · feature-complete
Conversational estimation (text → BoQ)
In design
Describe a project in natural language ("kitchen reno, 12 m², LED ceiling, 4 sockets, induction hob") and get a BoQ draft. Tool calls hit your historical bids + your supplier prices.
Bid-vs-actual closed loop
Planned
Once a job is finished, captured actual cost is compared with the original estimate; the per-tenant model learns where it under- or over-estimated and adjusts coefficients for the next bid of similar profile.
Drawing-diff → BoQ delta
In design
Drag in v2 of a drawing — bidyou.ai detects "+12 luminaires on floor 3 → +€340" and updates the BoQ atomically. Hash-based drawing identity is already in place; UI + delta calculation in design.
Companion items knowledge graph
Planned
"Cable X appears with junction box Y in 87% of past bids → suggest Y when X is added." Catches the items a tired estimator forgets at 11 p.m. before bid deadline.
Parametric assemblies (DSL)
In build
"1 light-point = 8 m cable + 1 box + 1 switch + 0.3 h labour." Define once; BoM generated from parameters at design time. Modulaquadro factory-workflow paramétrica is the lead-customer pilot.
Multi-trade architecture
Planned
Replaces hardcoded trade boundaries with explicit `is_activity + category` flags. Unblocks civil / HVAC / plumbing beyond the current electrical default.
Procurement timing optimiser
In design
"Buy in week N vs week N+8 saves €X with confidence Y%." Combines historical prices with project schedule.
SSO / SAML / OIDC
Planned
Pro and Enterprise tiers — Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace. SCIM user provisioning on Enterprise.
Custom-branded report templates
In design
Pro tier upload your logo + header + footer per-tenant. Already in place via watermark removal; bespoke template designer in design.
H1 2027
Adjacent expansions
Alphanumeric BoQ codes
Planned
`E.01.001`, `C.05.012` aligned with DIN 276 (DE), NRM (UK), OmniClass / CSI MasterFormat (US) per market. Migration path from current numeric codes preserves historical bid linkage.
EU language rollout — DE / FR / ES
Planned
Full i18n catalogue extension after PT-PT lands (Phase 1, pending Sotecno-Gaio sign-off). DE first (largest EU construction market), then FR, then ES. In-app domain terminology (orçamento → estimate → Kostenvoranschlag) stays per-locale.
Annotated drawing exports — polished UI
In design
Raw block detection works today; the customer-facing rendered overlay (DWG / PDF with highlighted detected items) gets a proper UI in H1.
Webhook events — outbound
Planned
Pro + Enterprise tiers receive HTTP webhooks on project events (bid version created, line item edited, supplier reply matched). Integrate with Zapier / Make / n8n / your own automation.
H2 2027+
Beyond the immediate horizon
Equipment depreciation calculator
Planned
Compute internal cost-per-hour for owned heavy plant: acquisition + depreciation + fuel + operator. Unlocks proper civil-construction estimating where heavy equipment hours dominate cost.
Procore export adapter
Planned
Push bidyou.ai estimates directly into Procore for tenants on the Procore platform. Not affiliated with Procore; adapter built against their public API.
ISO 27001 certification
Planned
Full ISMS audit including physical site. We commit to it once revenue justifies the audit cost; the scope is broader because we own the data centre.
SOC 2 Type II
Planned
Gated to the US-customer pipeline. The B2B contractor side targets EU first; SOC 2 is pursued only when a serious US-customer book justifies the audit cost.
How we treat this roadmap
PRINCIPLE 01
No vapourware
Items only appear here if we have at least a design sketch and a clear technical path. Items that don\'t survive design get removed from the public roadmap — we don\'t leave them in to look ambitious.
PRINCIPLE 02
Quarters slip, never quarters expand
If Q4 2026 is heavy, an item gets bumped to H1 2027. We don\'t pack the same quarter denser to pretend we caught up. Honest scoping beats heroic shipping.
PRINCIPLE 03
Customer priorities re-order the queue
A founding-customer ask from a paying tenant moves an item forward if it doesn\'t break the larger plan. Email roadmap@bidyou.ai with your context — we\'ll tell you when you\'re likely to see it shipped.
PRINCIPLE 04
Shipped > promised
Anything we say will ship in Q3 2026 lives at the top of /changelog/ once it does. If we miss a quarter, we say so in the changelog — no quiet date changes here.
Build with us while it\'s still early.
Free forever for 3 active projects. Founding-customer pricing locks for the first 100 paid signups.
