You're on Route 52 with XBE. For 52 straight Mondays during 2025, we're announcing something new and exciting.

We've reached Mile Marker 9, the Giant Anchor Launch and PriceBee Acquisition. If you price projects or construction materials, this stop is for you.

Pricing is the most powerful lever for profitability in construction and materials, yet many teams rely on instinct or "splitting the difference" when setting prices. Giant Anchor changes that by giving you greater confidence about the edge of the deal range, helping you anchor your bids with precision and purpose.

With powerful features like The Hold, Three-Point Bearings, The Multi-Line Fix, and The Dead Reckoning Index, Giant Anchor provides market-focused pricing intelligence that complements your existing cost estimation processes. The result? Better anchored first bids that lead to more profitable outcomes.

But that's only half the story. We've also acquired PriceBee, an innovative provider of material pricing and quoting solutions.

This acquisition enhances our platform with:

• Smart Pricing: Determine the right price based on market dynamics and your internal cost structure
• Efficient Quoting: Provide customer-friendly quotes that fully leverage your pricing strategies
• Seamless Ordering: Coming soon, we'll link quotes directly to operations, creating continuous feedback loops that strengthen your pricing strategies over time

Together, Giant Anchor and PriceBee will form a comprehensive pricing solution that will double your ability to improve your bottom line. Whether you're bidding on projects or quoting materials, these powerful tools help you maximize profitability at every step.

Stay tuned next week for Mile Marker 10.
