ScopeTakeoff is a construction estimating and digital takeoff software platform designed for construction subcontractors.[1] The platform provides tools for measuring quantities from construction drawings, calculating material and labor requirements, preparing cost estimates, and generating bid proposals. Its features include trade-specific estimating assemblies, PDF plan processing, automated calculations, and artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted plan analysis.[2]
Features
Construction estimating
ScopeTakeoff combines digital quantity takeoff with construction cost estimating in a single workflow. Users can upload PDF construction plans, measure areas and lengths, assign trade-specific assemblies, adjust material and labor costs, and calculate project estimates. The platform also supports overhead and profit calculations, estimate versioning, and the generation of a Schedule of Values (SOV) and project proposals.[3]
The software provides estimating tools for multiple construction trades, including concrete, masonry, drywall, painting, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), and flooring. Its automated calculations vary by trade and can include material quantities, labor requirements, and other components associated with specific construction assemblies.
Concrete estimating
The platform includes concrete estimating software for contractors working on slabs, foundations, footings, walls, reinforcement, and exterior flatwork. Users can measure quantities from construction drawings and apply predefined concrete assemblies to calculate material requirements and project costs.
Its concrete estimating tools can calculate concrete volume from measured area and slab thickness, as well as quantities associated with formwork and reinforcing steel. The software also supports adjustments to unit costs and the preparation of bid documents for subcontractors.
AI-assisted construction estimating
ScopeTakeoff incorporates AI-assisted features into its estimating workflow. Its plan assistant allows users to ask questions about uploaded construction drawings, specifications, and project scope. The platform can extract text from PDF sheets, make drawings searchable, and identify sheet numbers, names, and drawing scales from title blocks.[4]
The platform also offers visual plan analysis and AI-assisted quantity measurement. According to the company, its measurement feature proposes quantities for review by the estimator rather than automatically finalizing the estimate. The company states that its construction models are trained using verified takeoff data from multiple trades.
Flooring estimating
ScopeTakeoff provides flooring estimating software for contractors working with materials such as luxury vinyl plank (LVP), luxury vinyl tile (LVT), hardwood, ceramic tile, carpet, and epoxy flooring. The software allows users to measure floor areas from PDF plans or enter measured quantities manually.
The flooring module calculates material quantities and can apply waste factors based on flooring type and layout pattern. It also supports calculations for underlayment, adhesives, transitions, subfloor preparation, and installation labor. Estimates can be adjusted to reflect supplier prices and labor rates before proposals are generated.
The platform's AI-assisted flooring tools can answer questions about room finishes and flooring specifications found in plan sets. Its website states that AI-generated measurement proposals are subject to estimator review and that some AI measurement capabilities are available through early access.
