From blueprint intake to client-ready proposals, Takeubid automates your entire pre-construction workflow. Our specialized construction AI reads full drawing sets, detects measurements on the canvas, matches items to current supplier cost books, and catches scope gaps before they cost you margin.
Turn plans into profitable projects with Takeubid. Manage bids, project finances, deliveries, and risks in one live command center to stay ahead of issues, make faster decisions, and keep every project on track. Each module manages a key stage of the process, helping your team work faster, stay organized, and ensure no critical project requirement is missed.
Construction moves differently in every field, with unique teams, workflows, documents, and decisions. Your tools should be built to work the way your industry does.
Takeubid connects your entire construction workflow into one continuous project record. Each AI-powered module manages a critical step in the process — keeping your data organized, eliminating manual guesswork, and ensuring no project requirement is missed.
Upload bid packages, architectural drawings, and RFP documents in any format. The AI inspects every file for completeness, checks budget feasibility, and displays plans in an integrated viewer so you never bid on incomplete scopes.
Eliminate manual plan reading across hundreds of drawing pages. The AI reads architectural plans, finish schedules, and MEP notes to extract key deliverables, trade requirements, and deadlines with source-linked confidence.
Turn floor plans and drawing sheets into verified material quantities. The AI detects walls, floor areas, doors, ceilings, and fixtures on the canvas, highlighting measurements in real time with an automated review queue for conflicts.
Convert approved takeoff quantities into accurate, line-by-line project estimates. The AI benchmarks your trade rates against current supplier pricing, flags missing labour or cost spikes, and models scenarios to optimize your final quote.
Compare supplier quotes, lead times, and availability side by side across your entire bill of materials. The AI identifies bulk bundling opportunities, evaluates delivery risks, and surfaces recommendations to secure the best savings.
Match incoming trade and supplier invoices against issued purchase orders and approved estimate lines. The AI instantly flags price discrepancies, quantity overages, and duplicate billings to prevent margin leakages.
Keep subcontractor questions, client updates, and vendor follow-ups moving without delay. The AI copilot understands your drawings, submittals, and RFIs, drafting context-aware replies with the exact PDF sheets attached for quick review.
Add blueprints, spec books, RFPs, supplier price sheets, and any prior-project reference. No fixed template — plan sets, PDFs, and spreadsheets go straight in.
The plans are parsed into a scoped record. Takeoff generates quantities and estimating builds line items against supplier pricing, with every IRC-governed item from the drawings carried into the bid.
Clear quotes flagged for missing finish allowances and cost variances, then send a scoped, priced bid the client can act on.
Most platforms ship one model and you work inside its limits. Takeubid puts an orchestration layer between the document and the model, so every step of an intake runs on the intelligence that suits it best.
One structured intake record · 214 fields · 89.6% mean confidence · 6 held for review
Traditional SaaS: one built-in model, one pass, and no step you can point somewhere else. You work within its limits.
Note: Model names and marks are the property of their respective owners and appear here to say which APIs an intake step can be routed to. No endorsement or partnership is implied. Families are named without version numbers because the frontier re-ranks faster than a page can be edited.
Revit, AutoCAD, Procore, Bluebeam, QuickBooks, Dropbox, and Google Drive — and the rest of what your build-team already runs on. 24 integrations across every stage of a project bid, every one of them reading the tool’s own public API.

Takeubid is built for one- and two-family residential work. These are the standards its scope, takeoff, and estimating modules are organised around.
Blueprint & Spec Parsing reads one- and two-family drawing sets and spec books into a scoped record, so the framing, egress, fire-separation, and MEP rough-in items the IRC governs are captured in the bid instead of discovered at inspection.
The Estimating Assistant maps takeoff quantities to CSI MasterFormat divisions or your own cost codes, so line items line up with how the spec book is written and how subcontractors and suppliers quote.
Note: Takeubid structures and tracks these requirements so nothing is missed at intake. It does not certify compliance, check drawings against a code, or replace review by a licensed professional.
Which is the easy half. It runs every day against tenders nobody proofread, on a model that shifts under it, for a practice that finds out something drifted when a field comes back wrong.

Open the construction playbookTwo connected devices for the paper and the site: a plan scanner that turns hard-copy drawing sets into files the AI can read, and a Bluetooth laser meter that sends walk-through measurements straight into the takeoff.
Scans paper drawing sets up to 36" wide to PDF or TIFF and sends them to a shared network folder, so hard-copy plans enter the same pipeline as digital bid packages.
Scanned sheets are parsed into scope, schedules, and trade requirements like any uploaded drawing
Each shot is sent over Bluetooth to the laptop or tablet running the takeoff, so walk-through dimensions land on the canvas instead of being retyped from a notebook.
Checks drawing dimensions against measured site conditions, with the device logged as the source
Note: Hardware, installation, and integration are not included in the standard Takeubid subscription. Additional charges apply based on the hardware selected, integration modules required, and implementation scope.
Flat, for the whole platform. Every module included — takeoff, estimating, blueprint parsing, procurement, and invoice reconciliation. No per-seat maths, no tiers to decode.

A one-time setup that gets your build-team live before your first monthly cycle — we bring in your active jobs, past plans and pricing books, wire Takeubid to the inboxes and drives your bids already arrive through, and tune every takeoff, estimating, and procurement module to how your builder actually runs a residential project. Each fee below is a starting point: we scope the final onboarding once we understand your environment, security needs, integrations, data volume, compliance requirements, and how you want the platform deployed.

Everything in Plus, plus:
Takeubid handles the sensitive material your builder wins work on — client plans, supplier pricing, margin forecasts, and the predictions built on them. Run it whichever way your data policy requires.
Runs in Nestack's managed cloud — nothing to provision, fastest way to get your builder live. We handle hosting, updates, and scaling so your team just logs in and works.
The same platform deployed inside your own infrastructure — your cloud, VPC, or on-prem — for data-sensitive builders. Your plans, bids, and margin predictions never leave your environment, and the monthly subscription stays exactly the same.
Everything you need to know about how Takeubid automates drawing parsing, material takeoffs, estimating, and team workflows.
See the platformTakeubid is an AI-powered pre-construction platform that converts drawing sets into completed material takeoffs and priced estimates in hours rather than weeks. It eliminates repetitive manual plan scaling, spreadsheet entry, and missed drawing notes so your team can bid on more projects with confidence.
You can upload full architectural drawing sets, spec books, addenda, RFPs, and supplier cost sheets in standard PDF, CAD, or spreadsheet formats. There are no rigid templates required—the system processes multi-page plan sets and scanned drawings directly.
Complete drawing sets that typically take days or weeks to scale and measure manually are parsed and measured in minutes. Your team receives an organized project record, visual canvas markups, and line-item estimates ready for review the same day.
Yes. You can upload your current supplier price books, subcontractor rates, and standard CSI or internal cost codes. Takeubid automatically maps takeoff quantities to your preferred suppliers and trade rates so every estimate matches your real-world costs.
Always. Takeubid acts as a high-speed assistant, not an automated black box. Estimators can click into any line item, inspect the source drawing sheet, adjust quantities, swap materials, and override unit pricing before generating the final proposal.
Yes. Your drawings, bids, supplier discounts, and cost books remain 100% private to your company. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and your proprietary information is never shared or used to train external AI models.
Takeubid integrates directly with your existing construction ecosystem—including Procore, Bluebeam Revu, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Buildertrend, QuickBooks, and Excel—so you can import plans and export clean estimates without double data entry.
There is no complex software deployment or lengthy training cycle required. Because Takeubid runs in the browser and accepts standard plan sets and spreadsheets, most teams are set up and running their first live bid within their first day.
