How Takeoff works →
Takeoff on the plansLiveArea, linear, count and volume, with the trade math running as you draw.
Opens the right sheetLivePick a trade and it opens the sheet to measure first.
FillLiveClick in a room. It stops at walls, crosses grid lines and ignores leader arrows.

Count the legendLiveBox the symbol legend. Every match on the plan becomes a count to approve.
FindLiveAny tag on any sheet, including scans and words with a line through them.
Takeoff checkLiveSheets nobody measured, rooms with no area, double counts, items with no line.
Ready to send scoreLiveA score out of 100 with the biggest risks listed before you send.
Ratio checkLiveLF and counts per 1,000 SF compared with your past jobs.

It reads the plans and builds the condition, then lays out the real pieces.

See the tile layout demo →
Conditions from the plansLiveTag, size, product and height from the legend, finish schedule and specs.
Addendum changes offeredLive"ACT-1 height 9 ft to 10 ft (Addendum 2)", with Use it or Keep mine.
Real pieces on the roomLiveTiles and grid drawn on the plan, so counts are pieces you buy.
Starts at, or fewest cutsLiveStart the layout at the center, a wall, a corner or a door, or let it find the fewest cuts.
PatternsLiveStraight, 1/2 and 1/3 offset, diagonal, herringbone, basketweave, French, ashlar, or your own.
Waste by patternLiveA suggested waste for each pattern. You choose whether to use it.
Fixtures on the gridLiveA 2x4 light on a 2x2 grid takes exactly 2 tiles out.
Joint gap and slopeLiveTiles lay out at tile plus joint. Sloped areas come out at true length.
Cut-outs from contextBetaFloor stops at cabinets, soffits come out of ceilings, N.I.C. stays out.

Bid math

Your formulas, your rounding, your rates. Every number shows how it was figured.

Try the calculator →
Formula steps on each cardLiveSF ÷ 4 up ÷ BOX up × BOX, written the way you'd say it.
Round up, down or nearestLiveEach step rounds the way your shop buys.
What's in a boxLivePieces, SF, LF, EA or SY, so a box of 64 tiles is never read as 64 SF.

Labor your wayLiveProduction rates per card, with a rate that's only for this job.
Every trade's mathLiveFrom drywall layers to roofing squares to steel weight from the shape.
