Ediphi vs ConCntric

Two cloud preconstruction platforms for general contractors that both exhibit at Procore Groundbreak 2026, built for different parts of the job (our reading). Ediphi is the estimating system itself: cost modeling and estimating that builds bid packages from the estimate and carries them through bid leveling and buyout. ConCntric is a precon management platform that sits beside your estimating software and includes Amplify, its embedded agentic AI, at no extra cost. Vendor pages re-checked Oct 19, 2026; desk research, not tested, no winner.

What it doesCloud preconstruction platform for cost modeling, estimating, GCs & GRs, and contracting, from bid packages and bid leveling to buyout. Estimating uses templates and programmatic automation, and bid packages are built from estimates. Unit Price Catalog builds historical cost data from your estimates; open API and an Excel add-in for owner bid forms and reports. The homepage does not describe AI features (its blog discusses AI and cost tracking), so we tag it Not AI-first. Customer quotes include a 1,900% ROI figure from Suffolk (customer claim, not verified). Ediphi's blog announced a native integration with Togal.AI that maps Togal takeoff quantities to Ediphi estimate line items and notifies estimators when quantities change, naming Stevens Construction as the first live customer, ahead of its debut at Advancing Preconstruction in May 2026.Preconstruction platform for general contractors that unites pursuit, budgeting, planning, risk and procurement beside your estimating software. Re-read Oct 17, 2026: modules include Concept Hub, Calibrate (historical benchmarks and ROM estimates), ForeSite, Target Value Design, Timeline and AI-assisted Bid Leveling. Amplify, its embedded agentic AI, looks up unit costs and quantities, generates ROMs, explains variances, creates records with approval and extracts scope from drawings; the vendor says it is included at no extra cost. Re-checked Oct 19, 2026: the Amplify page also lists building sequenced schedules, bulk updates across a portfolio, Destini VE imports, Excel bulk updates, exports to CSV or XLSX, extraction of meeting notes, required materials and scope summaries from documents, and Skills (ConCntric-built or your own) for repeatable tasks, and says the team reviews what Amplify produces before anything is approved, updated or exported. The homepage says ConCntric works with your preferred estimating software rather than replacing it.

Where the vendor descriptions differ

  • Where each sits: Ediphi covers cost modeling, estimating (templates and programmatic automation), GCs and GRs, and contracting; bid packages are generated from estimates, followed by bid leveling and buyout. ConCntric says it is not another estimating tool and works with your preferred estimating software; its modules include Concept Hub, Calibrate (historical benchmarks and ROM estimates), ForeSite, Target Value Design, Timeline and AI-assisted Bid Leveling.
  • AI: ConCntric's Amplify looks up unit costs and quantities in past projects, generates ROMs from your own historical data, explains variances, creates records such as risks with approval, extracts scope from drawings, builds sequenced schedules and runs bulk updates, with Skills for repeatable tasks; the vendor says the team reviews results before anything is approved, updated or exported. Ediphi's homepage does not describe AI features, so it carries our Not AI-first label; its blog announced a native Togal.AI integration that maps Togal takeoff quantities to Ediphi estimate line items and notifies estimators when quantities change.
  • Historical cost data: Ediphi's Unit Price Catalog tracks unit costs, stores quantity takeoffs for programmed units and builds historical cost data from your estimates. ConCntric says it structures and stores historical project data, which Calibrate and Amplify use for benchmarks and ROMs.
  • Data in and out: Ediphi lists an open API and an Excel add-in for owner bid forms and reports, and says it connects Excel, takeoff, CRM and workforce planning tools. ConCntric's Amplify page lists Destini VE imports, Excel bulk updates and canvas exports to CSV or XLSX, and says Amplify needs no separate integration.
  • Pricing (checked Oct 19, 2026): neither publishes prices. Ediphi has no pricing link and /pricing and /plans return a not-found page; its call to action is "Get a demo". ConCntric has no pricing or plans link and /pricing returns a not-found page; its call to action is "Book a Demo", and Amplify is included with ConCntric at no extra cost.
  • Customer quotes are vendor-published and not verified: Ediphi quotes Hensel Phelps, DPR and Suffolk (Suffolk's ROI figure is not used here), and ConCntric quotes Abbott Construction, Big-D Construction and Consigli. Neither tool has been tested by Means & Methods Lab.
