AI Construction Takeoff & Estimating Software

Build Projects. Not Spreadsheets.

Takoffa transforms drawings and specifications into takeoffs, materials, programmes and project workflows — helping construction businesses spend less time managing spreadsheets and more time building.

  • Reduce manual takeoff time from hours to minutes
  • Detect missed scope before it reaches site
  • Generate quantities directly from drawings and specs
  • Produce material schedules automatically
  • Convert estimates into project programmes instantly
  • Track project progress and workforce activity

Estimating shouldn't be a bottleneck.

Every hour lost to manual measurements and spreadsheet cleanup is an hour not spent winning or delivering work.

Missed Scope

Missing even small items during takeoff can turn profitable jobs into loss-making projects.

Manual Measurements

Estimators still spend hours counting windows, measuring areas and reviewing drawings by hand.

Drawing Revisions

Working from outdated revisions creates costly mistakes before construction even begins.

Spreadsheet Chaos

Many businesses still rely on disconnected spreadsheets and manual calculations.

Knowledge Dependency

Estimating quality often depends entirely on the availability of one experienced estimator.

Tender Pressure

Bid deadlines force teams to choose between speed and accuracy.

Built around the real estimating workflow.

Eight capabilities that turn drawings and specifications into a defensible, exportable estimate — and a project you can actually deliver.

AI Takeoff Engine

Analyse drawings and specifications automatically to generate work scope and quantities.

Scope Coverage Verification

Verify generated BoQ items against the source drawings and specifications.

Source References

Every generated item shows exactly where it came from within your project documentation.

Materials Generation

Generate material requirements automatically from the labour scope.

Version Control

Maintain historical takeoff versions and instantly restore previous estimates.

Smart Amendments

Refine generated estimates using natural-language instructions.

Programme Generation

Convert BoQ outputs into construction programmes and Gantt charts.

Cloud Platform

Access projects securely from anywhere, on any device.

From drawings to programme in four steps.

Step 01

Upload drawings & specs

Drop in PDFs, drawing packs and specifications — Takoffa handles multi-page project documentation.

Step 02

AI analyses project scope

Our engine reads plans, sections and specs to identify scope items and quantities.

Step 03

Review with source references

Every generated item links back to its source. Amend with natural language and lock what you approve.

Step 04

Export BoQ, materials or programme

One click to a BoQ, materials schedule, or a construction programme ready for site.

A defensible estimate, not a hopeful one.

Everything a traditional estimating workflow does — faster, verified and ready to hand over.

What is an AI Unit? AI Units measure the AI processing used to analyse project documents and generate results. Actual usage depends on the size and complexity of the project documentation and the AI operations performed.

Free AI capacity is a one-time allowance. Starter and Professional AI capacity resets each monthly billing period. Unused monthly AI Units do not roll over.

Time Tracking is planned for Professional and will support workforce time reporting and project-based hours management.

Answers for estimators and commercial teams.

Stop measuring. Start building.

Spend less time counting drawings and more time winning projects.
