Quoting a job meant a senior estimator reading blueprints for most of a day. We built an AI takeoff pipeline from plan PDFs to a bid workbook, with a review screen for the estimator.

The product as we found it
Quoting a demolition job meant a senior estimator reading plan PDFs for most of a day. Every bid waited on that person's time.

Estimator — Construction
01Built an AI takeoff pipeline that reads plan PDFs and pulls out the quantities an estimate needs.
02Writes the result into a bid workbook.
03Gave the estimator a review interface to check and correct every line before a bid goes out.
What moved
Quoting a job went from 8 hours to 10 minutes — and the estimator still reviews every line before a bid goes out.
