VoltiQ — Frequently asked questions
What is VoltiQ?
AI electrical estimating software for electrical contractors in Atlantic Canada. Describe a job in plain language or upload a photo, and it builds a fully itemized estimate — labour hours, material costs, and 2024 Canadian Electrical Code flags — in about three minutes.
Does it use the Canadian Electrical Code or the US NEC?
The Canadian Electrical Code. VoltiQ is built on the 2024 CEC, uses Canadian materials (RW90, TECK90), applies provincial HST, and covers NB, NS, PEI and NL — not the US NEC.
How accurate are the estimates?
VoltiQ produces a strong, itemized first-pass estimate with real regional material pricing and CEC-aware logic. It's designed to be reviewed by a licensed electrician — it explicitly flags that you should verify against the current CEC and your local inspection authority before relying on the numbers.
How much does it cost?
Free to try, no signup. $24 CAD/month to unlock full pricing and send quotes. Cancel anytime. See pricing.
Which provinces does it support?
New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador — with regional material pricing and the correct provincial HST for each.
Is it better than using ChatGPT for estimating?
VoltiQ is a purpose-built estimating tool with Canadian material pricing, 2024 CEC rules, and the estimating structure built in — plus it saves the quote, sends it for client approval, and revises on command. Generic ChatGPT doesn't know the CEC, Canadian materials, or your region.
Can I revise an estimate?
Yes — tell VoltiQ what changed in plain language and the estimate rebuilds itself.
Is it available in French?
Yes, VoltiQ works fully in English and French.
