Drawing Takeoff

Built for UK builders & estimators

You do the takeoff. Our AI writes the estimate.

  • AI-built BoQ & estimate
  • Drawings-grade accuracy you approve
  • One-click push to Estimator

Where the time goes

You bring the accuracy. The AI builds the estimate.

Pricing a job has two halves. We remove one of them entirely.

You + Takeoff
the accuracy layer

Lock in scope from the drawings

  • Upload PDF drawings and calibrate scale
  • Approve rooms, items and measurements with evidence
  • Mark what's in scope — and only that

~ half your usual time

Estimator AI
the time saver

Writes the BoQ and priced estimate

  • Builds the Bill of Quantities from your approved scope
  • Picks materials, assemblies and waste allowances
  • Produces a priced estimate ready to send to the client

~ the half we remove

Accuracy in trustworthy estimate out. That's the whole product.

Stop measuring by hand

Set the scale from one known dimension, trace the rooms you're working on, and get their floor, wall and ceiling areas and perimeter worked out for you.

Only what you're pricing

Trace just the rooms and floors in the job — the rest of the drawing stays as context. Pin the doors, windows and radiators you're changing, and the AI reads roof, wall and finish details from the notes and your spec.

Quote with confidence

Every room's sizes come from the outline you traced on the scaled drawing, so you can show where each number came from on site or in front of the client.

Workflow

From PDF to priced estimate, in five steps.

Designed around how UK builders actually quote — not how software thinks they should.

  1. Step 1

    Upload

    Drag in PDF drawings, pick the pages you actually want priced.

  2. Step 2

    Key details

    The AI reads the drawing notes and your spec for roof, walls, finishes and more — you confirm them.

  3. Step 3

    Calibrate

    Confirm a known dimension and every measurement becomes scale-aware.

  4. Step 4

    Trace & choose works

    Trace the rooms you're working on and pick the works for each.

  5. Step 5

    Push to Estimator

    Send approved rooms and works to ProBuilder Estimator and get a priced quote.

What you get

Everything you need to price a job from drawings.

Room-by-room quantities

Floor area, wall area, ceiling area and perimeter for each room you trace — the numbers your trades actually price against.

AI-read job details

Roof type, wall build-up, finishes and other key details read from the drawing notes and your specification, for you to confirm.

Scale calibration

Set scale from any known dimension on the drawing. Mixed scales across sheets handled per page.

Items pinned on the drawing

Pin doors, windows, sockets, radiators and sanitary where they are, so the count and location go to Estimator with the room.

Assemblies, BoQ & waste

Turn measurements into work packages with recipes, layers, coverage and waste — ready for pricing.

The half we remove

The estimate and BoQ are written for you.

Push your approved scope and quantities to ProBuilder Estimator and the AI builds the Bill of Quantities and priced estimate from them. Only the rooms and works you marked in-scope get priced — no 86 doors when you wanted three. You land in Estimator already signed in, on the right project.

  • Send rooms, work items, BoQ lines and assumptions
  • In-scope rooms only — your scope, not the whole drawing
  • Single sign-on between Takeoff and Estimator
