Browser-based estimating for iPad, tablet, and laptop
Open the estimating workspace in Safari or any modern browser — no App Store dependency for the estimator, and no local project files to sync.
FenceTracer runs in the browser on iPad, tablet, and laptop, so the same pricebook and tax rules follow you from the site visit to the office. Draw the layout, review the takeoff, and send the quote while the customer is still standing there.

Why contractors search for fence estimating software for ipad
Most fence apps for iPad are either a mobile viewer for a desktop tool or a form that asks you to type quantities. FenceTracer keeps the drawing as the quantity source on every device: runs, corners, gates, and style changes feed fence-specific material recipes, then your catalogue prices, tax, and margin turn the same takeoff into a customer-ready PDF.
Open the estimating workspace in Safari or any modern browser — no App Store dependency for the estimator, and no local project files to sync.
Trace the runs and gates on site; every segment updates footage and quantities from the same recipes the office uses.
The pricebook and regional tax defaults live in the workspace, so a kitchen-table quote prices like an office quote.
Add estimators, office staff, and crew leads without per-seat pricing turning the iPad decision into a budget meeting.
