KNI Software — Windows Desktop App
Stop copy-pasting emails. KNI Bid Blaster hits every sub on your list through Outlook — pre-filled, with your real signature, in the time it takes to pour a coffee.
The Problem
Every estimator on every bid day does the same thing — opens Outlook, copies the template, pastes in a sub's email, changes the name, hits send, repeats 40 times. There's a better way.
Manually emailing 30–50 subs per bid takes 45 minutes to 2 hours. That's not estimating, that's data entry.
Wrong name. Wrong project link. Sent to the wrong trade. One mistake and that sub doesn't bid. Manual process = manual errors.
BuildingConnected and Procore are $100–500/month. You're a working estimator, not a Fortune 500. The math doesn't work.
How It Works
No training. No onboarding. No platform for your subs to sign up for. Just fill in the project, check the boxes, and blast.
Run the .exe, enter your license key. Done in 2 minutes.
File → Contacts. Add your sub list once — company, trade, email. Never again.
Project name, Dropbox link, bid due date. 30 seconds.
Filter by trade, click Select All, or hand-pick who gets this bid.
Hit Send via Outlook. Every draft opens pre-filled with your real signature.

Features
Works with your existing Outlook. Every email opens as a pre-filled draft with your real signature automatically injected.
Organize subs by trade. Click Concrete, Select All — every concrete sub is checked and ready in one click.
Add a quantity table to any individual sub's email — item, qty, unit. Renders as a clean HTML table in Outlook. Saves to the contact.
Every blast logs automatically. Reload any past project in one click and re-blast or use as a starting point.
Variables like {PROJECT_NAME}, {CONTACT_NAME}, {DROPBOX_LINK} pull your project info in automatically. Edit once, works forever.
No cloud. No server. Sub list, history, and templates stored locally in an encrypted file. Nobody touches your data but you.
