Description

Purple Hammer serves as a desktop solution for takeoff and estimating, tailored specifically for construction estimators and quantity surveyor teams, embodying the potential that Bluebeam aimed to achieve. Its standout features encompass a 120 FPS PDF viewer, comprehensive markups and measurements (such as length, area, count, perimeter, volume, and wall volume), and advanced drawing comparison capabilities that include auto alignment, blinking, and support for multiple candidates. Furthermore, it provides built-in estimating worksheets, allows the use of takeoff formulas with power syntax, and includes cost and contract lookup tables. The software also offers an open MCP for AI access, a one-click "Magic Measure" function, and the ability to snap to geometry, grid, and raster edges. Additionally, it comes equipped with live document and version control, and supports exporting marked-up PDFs, Excel files, and comparison GIFs. Compatible with both Mac and Windows, Purple Hammer is an all-in-one tool designed to streamline the estimating process for construction professionals. Its user-friendly interface and robust functionality make it an essential asset for enhancing efficiency and accuracy in construction projects.

Description

Vertigraph develops quantity takeoff software used for developing the estimate for commercial construction activities. Most of our customers create the estimate (which is applying costs to the quantities) using Microsoft Excel. SiteWorx/OS creates 3D models of the existing and proposed site based on elevations obtained from PDF and/or AutoCAD DWG files. The volumes and locations of cuts and fills are calculated from these 3D models. AutoCAD files are also provided that have elevation and positioning data that are used for machine control. BidScreen XL, our other application, provides simple measuring from PDF and AutoCAD files directly in Excel. The color-coded takeoff is saved with the Excel cell and workbook. No need to flop back and forth between Excel and a different takeoff application. With BidScreen XL everything is done in Excel. Excel functions and formulas provide further calculations to the measurement and Excel also organizes the takeoff and estimate. Both of our programs are easy to use, affordable and unmatched in its performance. Satisfaction is guaranteed. Please call 214-340-9436.
