What are you working on?
Whether you are building the latest EV automobile, designing a new satellite, or bidding on a government contract, Estimation Intelligence will help you take your assumptions and data to clean estimates quickly and accurately.
Book a ConsultationBaseline cost early, then re‑forecast quickly if assumptions change.
Learn more →Forecast effort and schedule early and keep staffing plans aligned as scope evolves.
Learn more →Build defensible should‑cost positions and supplier scenarios before negotiations.
Learn more →Set bid strategy using a defensible cost position and scenario trade-offs.
Learn more →Translate early requirements into size/effort forecasts that leaders can fund and adjust.
Learn more →Quantify uncertainty into ranges and drivers that leadership can review and act on.
Learn more →Turn RFPs into structured estimate artifacts faster without sacrificing review readiness.
Learn more →Bring cost into design decisions early, compare alternatives before changes get expensive.
Learn more →Start with your industry.
Estimation Intelligence is built on sector-specific cost data and validated against thousands of real-world programs, so the numbers hold up when it matters.
Book a ConsultationDefensible estimates under scrutiny, from development through sustainment.
Learn more →Predictable transformation programs: baselines that update with scope and vendors.
Learn more →Scenario-based baselines for volatile inputs, supply constraints, and change.
Learn more →Find cost earlier: design-to-cost, quoting, and should-cost tied to real drivers.
Learn more →One baseline across software, hardware, and manufacturing keeps launches predictable.
Learn more →Traceable baselines in regulated environments without generic, insecure AI.
Learn more →Defensible estimates for public accountability: transparent assumptions and quantified risk.
Learn more →Forecast delivery and capital spend for fast-moving roadmaps and programs.
Learn more →“We expect to save up to 400 hours per month on proposals, trade studies, and ECPs. This new approach makes it possible to consider more design parameters and search a much larger historical database.”
“Integrating Galorath’s SEER platform into workflows ensures we have the right tools to combat economy-driven constraints and focus on cost, outcome predictions, and meeting design requirements, keeping us ahead of the curve with a strategic advantage.”
“SEER and SEERai give our team unprecedented speed, transparency, and technical depth, enabling highly efficient cost model development and iteration across the lifecycle of projects ranging from hypersonic systems to space exploration.”
“SEER tools [from Galorath] eliminated the most time-consuming part of the bottom-up approach. Structured costing [using SEER] saved 75% of our estimate time with the same accuracy.”
“SEER-SEM transformed our cost estimation process. By gathering project information and entering parameters, we quickly generate detailed cost estimates.”
“[With SEER], not only are we faster at delivering the estimates, but we no longer need to have our best and most costly resources spending time on the estimation process. We’re now able to empower our Project Managers to take over that role.”
“The SEER tools are equally strong at estimating both software and hardware costs. They do a thorough job of enabling the analyst to deconstruct the system into smaller elements.”
“SEERai has been very helpful in providing me with different ideas for starting new cost models and SEER and non-SEER related answers. It’s a solid 9 of 10.”
“We’ve been using SEERai as a guide for detailed inputs in SEER as well as other background. It has great depth of information [and is] able to add key context for concepts used by our SMEs.”
