MD Price Engine
A commercial epoxy job pricing calculator for paid seats. The public page shows one frozen sample bid so you can see the product. It is not a live bid and it is not your job.
Primary checkout: $497/month on Whop.Whop checkout is linked.This is software, not the $99/month education membership.
What subscribers get
Price the job you will actually install.
- Square footage, system/coats, prep, moisture, and access.
- Crew size, loaded wage, mobilization, material, waste, contingency, target margin.
- Recommended bid, $/sf, GP, break-even, max labor hours, extra-day cost, margin-risk flag.
- Proposal-ready line items with print and text export — after you subscribe.
What it is not
- Not a public live bid tool. The preview below does not recompute.
- Not How to Grow and Sell Your Epoxy Business. That membership teaches the operating system.
- Not Bid Desk. Reviews of live commercial bids are a separate $997/month desk.
- Not a guarantee of the number you should send, the hours you will spend, or the margin you will keep.
