You don't have a spending problem. You have a visibility problem.

The Baticost promise

See overruns while they're still manageable.

Every expense is benchmarked against your budget. Gaps appear when they can still be corrected. Not at the end of the project.

Budget deviation detection
Finally, clarity

What helps you understand exactly what's happening.

No calculations, no manual reconciliation, no guesswork.

14 trade categories

A clear financial structure from day one

Every expense is automatically assigned to a relevant trade category (Structure, Plumbing, Electrical, Finishes…). You instantly know where money is committed.

Trade category structure
T · m³ · days

An amount without a quantity is not information

Baticost connects each expense to site reality: tonnes, m³, days, units. Unit price is calculated automatically. Numbers become immediately meaningful.

Expenses linked to quantities
1 dashboard

A clear overview, without switching screens

All your projects, committed budgets, available balances, and alerts in one place. You instantly know where to look and where to act.

Consolidated dashboard
Decide in time

What lets you act while there's still time.

Before the situation becomes locked in.

+13.3%

Spot a drift before it takes hold

Every new price is compared to your previous purchases for the same material. Silent price increases become visible, without manual calculation.

Price variation detection
80% threshold

You're warned before the surprise

Clear thresholds alert you when a category approaches its limit — not when the overrun has already happened. You act while there's still time.

Proactive alerts
Project A vs B

Your projects become your own benchmark

Compare one site to another, a category to its history, a purchase to your real habits. No need for abstract industry averages.

Project comparison
Roles & history

Delegate data entry. Keep control.

Your teams add expenses as the work progresses. Everything is centralised, structured, and logged. No more chasing scattered information.

Team collaboration
Built for the field

Designed for the realities of African construction.

Unstable connections, variable prices, multiple suppliers, remote oversight: Baticost is built for real projects, not ideal ones.

We thought we had it under control. We were wrong.

Those building in West Africa share their experience.

I've been building my house for 2 years. Before Baticost, I'd ask my mason 'where are we?' and he'd say 'it's moving along'. Now I know we've spent 12.3M of the 18M budgeted for structural work. That's a different conversation.

In 3 years, I sent 22 million to my uncle for my house in Bingerville. Blurry WhatsApp photos, scribbled totals, awkward silences. With Baticost, we look at the same numbers. We talk again.

I'm building from Dubai. My brother manages on-site. Every expense is photographed, dated, categorised. When he sends a funding request, I know exactly why.

One avoided overrun pays for your entire year.

€89 is less than 0.5% of a typical home's budget. The price of half a truckload of sand — invisible compared to the risk of runaway costs.
