"First takeoff, I spent 20 minutes reviewing the counts on a 47-page commercial office. I had done the same set manually — took me 6 hours. The AI found an area I missed. Sold."
Electrical Takeoff Software with 95%+ Accuracy
Generate complete electrical takeoffs from construction plans in about 15 minutes. AI counts receptacles, calculates wire runs, and organizes everything by circuit.
Electrical Takeoff
95%+ accuracy on electrical quantities
Device Counts
Every receptacle, switch, and fixture counted
Wire & Conduit
Footage by gauge and size
Panel Schedules
Load calcs included
Conduit Runs
Quantities by size and type
What the AI Actually Recognizes
Construction-trained AI — not generic image recognition. It reads your plan legends first, then applies those symbols across the entire set. Hand-drawn details, CAD exports, and scanned drawings all work.
- All standard NEC device symbols: receptacles, switches, fixtures, disconnects
- Panel schedules: reads circuit tables, breaker sizes, load columns
- Custom symbols: reads your legend and applies throughout the set

Device Recognition
AI identifies electrical symbols including receptacles, switches, fixtures, and specialty devices across all plan sheets.
- Standard electrical symbols
- Cross-sheet verification
- Schedule integration
Wire Calculations
Automatic wire footage calculations by gauge with homerun tracing to panels. 95%+ accuracy on measurements.
- Footage by gauge
- Circuit path tracing
- 95%+ accuracy
Conduit Takeoff
Conduit runs measured and organized by type and size. Includes fittings, boxes, and connectors.
- EMT, IMC, rigid, PVC
- Fittings counted
- Organized by size
Panel & Load Schedules
Panel schedules extracted from one-line diagrams — breaker assignments, circuit maps, spare capacity. Load calculations and feeder sizing from service entrance diagrams.
- Breaker assignments by circuit and panel
- Load calculations and service sizing
- Feeder sizes and spare capacity
Wire Footage: How the Math Works
Wire footage isn't just measured from drawings — it's calculated using homerun distances to panels, device locations, and routing assumptions based on ceiling heights in the schedule. Results are typically within 5-8% of field-measured actuals.

6 reviews
"The flagging system is what got me. It doesn't pretend to be perfect. Shows me exactly what it's unsure about. I verify those items, everything else I trust. That's how I want a tool to behave."
"Ran it on a custom home I'd already counted. 94% match on my spot-check. The 6% difference was a panel schedule I read differently — both counts were defensible. Good enough for bidding."
"We're bidding twice as many jobs now with the same estimator. He reviews AI counts instead of starting from scratch. That's how you grow without hiring."
"Handles three-phase and motor circuits better than I expected. Warehouse project with 80 pages took 30 minutes to verify instead of two days to count."
"The toggle system is genius. I add my standard 12% markup and job-specific adjustments in seconds. Export to Excel, send to suppliers."
Electrical Takeoff Questions
Answers to what electricians actually ask before they run their first takeoff.
What electrical items does it count?
Receptacles (all types), switches (including 3-way, 4-way, dimmers), lighting fixtures (all mounting types), J-boxes, panel schedules, breaker counts, wire footage by gauge, conduit by size and type. If it's on your electrical plan set, it's counted.
- All NEC device types including GFCI, AFCI, dedicated circuits
- Panel schedules with breaker sizes and loading
How does wire footage get calculated?
Homerun distance from device to panel is calculated from plan geometry, ceiling heights in the schedule, and routing assumptions. Wire footage by gauge (12 AWG, 10 AWG, etc.) is estimated from device location and circuit path. Results typically run within 5-8% of field-measured actuals.
- Homerun calculations based on device-to-panel distances
- Within 5-8% of field-measured actuals on typical commercial plans
Does conduit get counted separately?
Yes — EMT, rigid, and flex conduit are counted separately with footage by diameter. Fittings, connectors, and junction boxes along the run are included. Results organized by conduit type and size for material ordering.
- EMT, rigid, and flex separated by diameter
- Fittings and connectors included in count
How accurate is it on commercial electrical plans?
95%+ on standard commercial drawings. Low-confidence items are flagged — you see what to verify and where. Most contractors report the flagged item review takes 10-15 minutes on a full commercial set.
- 95%+ on standard commercial and residential plans
- Flagged items include page number and location
How long does an electrical takeoff take?
About 15 minutes for a typical 30-page commercial electrical set. Larger sets (80-100 pages) run 25-40 minutes. You'll get an email when it's done. Review of flagged items takes most contractors 10-20 minutes additional.
- 30-page set: ~15 minutes AI analysis
- Plus 10-20 minutes to review flagged items
