Description

ConstructConnect Takeoff is a web-based application designed for construction estimators and contractors to effectively quantify work using digital plans. The platform allows users to upload sets of plans, categorize and label sheets, establish drawing scales, and perform measurements for lengths, areas, and counts. Utilizing AI technology, Auto Takeoff streamlines the process by automatically recognizing plan pages, calibrating scales, and generating measurements that users can review and modify as needed. This application facilitates plan-based quantity takeoff, catering to various construction projects and trade estimating processes, and offers both Starter and Professional plans suitable for individuals and teams alike. Additionally, users have the ability to export their takeoff data in formats that are compatible with popular estimating software like PlanSwift and On-Screen Takeoff, enhancing their downstream estimating capabilities. Notably, Auto Takeoff is a feature included with the Professional subscription plan, providing users with advanced tools to improve efficiency in their estimating workflows.

Description

Excalibur View is a construction-focused drawing viewer, markup, and takeoff software developed by a structural steel estimator actively working in the field. The markups created are standard PDF annotations, ensuring that any set annotated within the program can be opened seamlessly in applications like Bluebeam Revu or Adobe, retaining all formatting and positions. It also supports the import of Revu .bpx profiles and .btx tool sets, complete with their associated tools, custom columns, and unit weights. This software empowers users to measure length, area, count, volume, and angles at the specified scale, with each tool incorporating its own unit weights, allowing for tonnage calculations on the takeoff while drawing beams. The Shop List feature efficiently converts marked-up items into a cut list, detailing stock lengths, saw kerfs, and leftover drops. Excalibur View is available for free to individual users, including for commercial purposes, and requires no account or expiration date. For offices, Excalibur View Office is offered at a one-time fee of $250 per seat on owned machines, with optional updates at $100 per seat annually. Notably, the software operates entirely offline; drawings, markups, and takeoffs remain securely stored on your hardware without any cloud integration. Furthermore, the software's source code is available under the Elastic License 2.0, allowing for further customization and use.
