Need Client-Ready AV Proposals Faster?
Choose XTEN-AV Over Jetbuilt
When a client needs a specific AV proposal layout, Jetbuilt can make formatting changes difficult. AV Teams often move to separate tools, which delays sign-off. Switch to XTEN-AV with pre-designed templates and digital signature for faster, approval-ready proposals.

By centralizing automation, AV schematics, smarter documentation and project management within a single platform, it helps teams to handle complex AV projects with greater accuracy and precision.
AV BOM Automation That Reduces Ordering Rework
Outdated BOM versions and manual edits often lead to quantity mismatches and repeat work. XTEN-AV automates AV BOM generation, helping teams maintain accurate equipment lists and reduce ordering rework.
Auto-Generated AV Drawings with 1000+ DFY Templates
Manual AV workflows across spreadsheets, word files and drafting tools slow delivery. XTEN-AV uses 1000+ DFY templates to auto-generate AV drawings, helping teams create layouts and schematics faster with clear project documentation.
Create AV Proposals That Look Professional Every Time
No design skills required. No formatting delays. No scope or pricing mismatches. XTEN-AV uses predesigned AV proposal templates built around system scope, equipment lists and project pricing, so every proposal stays aligned, accurate and client-ready.
Track Equipment Readiness and AV Installation Progress
Uncertainty around system components or site readiness can slow projects. XTEN-AV gives AV project managers real-time insight into inventory and installation progress to keep projects on schedule.
AV Insights & Reporting Automation
AV teams lose visibility when AV installation readiness, costs, inventory and schedules are tracked separately. XTEN-AV combines live AV insights with scheduled reports in one view to improve project control and ROI tracking.
