Takeoffs measured digitally, not eyeballed off a printed plan
Digital takeoff software measures quantities directly from plan files, catching the kind of small measurement error a manual takeoff under deadline pressure tends to miss.
Most construction estimating services run a team of estimators manually measuring plans and pricing materials line by line, which is slow and leaves room for the kind of pricing error that turns a winning bid into a losing job. We run takeoff and estimating as an outsourced service built software-first: digital takeoff tools that measure plans accurately and fast, pricing checked against current material costs instead of a stale price book, and turnaround measured in days, not weeks.
A contractor outsourcing estimating is usually trying to solve two problems at once: not having in-house estimating capacity to bid every job that comes in, and the real risk that a rushed manual takeoff misses a quantity or prices a material wrong. A traditional estimating service fixes the capacity problem and often still inherits the accuracy problem, because the takeoff itself is still a person measuring a drawing by hand. We built ours to run every takeoff through digital measurement software first, cross-checked against current material pricing, so the estimate that goes out the door reflects what the job will actually cost, not what it cost when the price book was last updated.
Digital takeoff software measures quantities directly from plan files, catching the kind of small measurement error a manual takeoff under deadline pressure tends to miss.
Every estimate gets priced against current material costs, not a price list that's months out of date, which is one of the most common ways a winning bid turns into a losing job.
A faster takeoff-and-pricing pipeline means you can bid on more jobs without turning away work because your estimating capacity is maxed out.
You get estimating capacity without budgeting for a full-time estimator's salary, benefits, and the ramp-up time every time that role turns over.
Whatever software your team already uses for project management or accounting, we work alongside it. Nobody has to learn a new system just to receive an estimate.
Tell us what kind of work you bid, how estimating gets done today, in-house, a part-time estimator, or nothing consistent, and how often a bid has come back wrong after the job started, and we'll show you what software-powered takeoff and estimating looks like against your real numbers.

Usually days, not weeks, since digital takeoff measurement is significantly faster than a manual one. Exact turnaround depends on plan complexity and job size, which we'll scope upfront.
Either, depending on your situation. Some contractors use this to cover overflow bid volume alongside an existing estimator; others use it as their primary estimating function because they don't have the in-house capacity to justify a full-time hire.
Estimates are priced against current material costs rather than a static price book, which is one of the more common sources of a bid that looks fine on paper and loses money once the job starts.
Our team, running on our own digital takeoff software. We built the measurement and pricing pipeline ourselves specifically so turnaround and accuracy don't depend on a rotating cast of subcontracted estimators.
Yes, we work alongside whatever system you already use so an estimate lands where your team already looks, rather than asking you to adopt a new platform just to receive it.
