QTakeOff AI review
A web takeoff tool for AI quantity detection, estimating, and bid comparison.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
QTakeOff AI analyzes construction drawings to identify materials and quantities, then produces reports for estimating and bidding. It is aimed at contractors, subcontractors, general contractors, estimating firms, and suppliers that want drawing analysis alongside quantity calculations and cost estimates. The web-based product accepts PDF plans; the vendor also describes PDF, CAD, and BIM uploads. Its combination of quantity detection and bid comparison is most relevant to teams that need to move from plan review into estimate scenarios rather than only measure quantities.
The workflow extends beyond takeoff: QTakeOff AI lists material and labor cost estimation, side-by-side bid comparison, and scenario analysis. Reports can be exported in PDF or Excel, while listed connections include Excel/CSV, Procore, Bluebeam, Sage 300, PlanSwift, and a custom API. That makes it a fit for teams whose estimating process already touches those tools or needs exported quantity reports. The product is cloud-deployed and also offers an API platform, so buyers should assess how its workflow fits their existing systems before committing.
The vendor advertises a 14-day free trial without a card requirement, but there is no free plan, and ongoing pricing is handled through contact sales. Support channels listed are email and phone, with 24/7 support stated. Buyers should consider QTakeOff AI when AI-assisted drawing analysis, estimating, and bid scenarios belong in one workflow; teams seeking a free ongoing option or a tool centered on a different takeoff process should compare alternatives. The trial provides a bounded opportunity to evaluate drawing inputs, exports, and integrations against their estimating needs.
QTakeOff AI pros and cons
- Where it wins
- Detects materials and quantities from uploaded construction drawings
- Combines quantity calculations with material and labor cost estimates
- Compares bids and scenarios, with PDF and Excel report exports
- Where it doesn't
- No free plan; continued pricing is handled through contact sales
- Requires drawing files and estimating workflows suited to its supported inputs
- A 14-day trial may be brief for evaluating complex estimating workflows
