Our Journey

The Story Behind Addis Cost Estimator

Before 2023

The Problem

Addis Cost Estimator was born out of frustration. As construction professionals working in Addis Ababa, we repeatedly witnessed projects going over budget, contractors underbidding and then cutting corners, and clients being surprised by unexpected costs. The traditional methods of cost estimation were not just time-consuming—they were fundamentally flawed.

Early 2023

The Challenge

Ethiopia's construction market has unique challenges: fluctuating material prices, regional variations in labor costs, and a lack of standardized estimation procedures. We realized that addressing these challenges required a specialized solution built specifically for the Ethiopian context.

Late 2023

The Solution

We assembled a team of construction engineers, software developers, and data scientists with deep knowledge of the local construction industry. Together, we built a platform that combines real-time market data with advanced algorithms to produce accurate cost estimations that reflect the realities of building in Ethiopia today.
