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.
