Contractors reviewing materials on a jobsite
Built for the field

Every search happens
at the jobsite.

MatScout is built for contractors who need answers fast — not after they get back to the office. Pull up prices, compare suppliers, and source materials from the truck.

Sourcing materials mid-project is broken.

01

Too many tabs, too little time

Checking Home Depot, Lowe's, your local yard, and three specialty suppliers. For every single item. Every single project.

02

Enterprise tools miss the mark

Existing procurement software is built for $50M GCs with purchasing departments. Not for the contractor who needs 12 sheets of drywall by tomorrow.

03

Price surprises kill margins

Material costs fluctuate constantly. Without real-time comparison, you're guessing, and guessing eats profit on every job.

Three taps to the right material.

01

Search what you need

Type in any material, from lumber to PEX fittings. Natural language works. SKU numbers work. Product names work.

02

Compare across suppliers

See real prices from major retailers and local suppliers in your area, side by side. No more guessing which store has it cheaper.

03

Find it nearby

Location-aware results show what's in stock near your jobsite. Check availability before you waste a trip.

Anyone who buys building materials.
