Every window counted, checked, and ready to bid.
Upload the set and get window counts by type and size, cross-checked against the schedule, with discrepancies surfaced instead of discovered at install.
Quoting.ai Takeoff counts windows from full architectural drawing sets automatically. It reads the window schedule, finds window symbols across plans and unit types, and the 4 Eyes check cross-references schedule counts, plan counts, and the legend to surface every mismatch. It runs in the browser on dense multifamily sets. Upload a plan; the product is the demo.
The bids this is built for
- Window counts hide in unit-type multiplication: 6 window types across 14 unit plans across 3 buildings. One wrong multiplier and the order is off by a floor's worth of glass.
- Estimators bidding 400-unit projects tell us manual counting takes 5 to 6 hours per bid, before a single price is applied.
- Schedule revisions land mid-bid. Recounting by hand means either eating hours again or bidding on stale counts.
How does AI window takeoff work?
The system reads the window schedule and the plans together, expanding unit-type counts across buildings the way the set intends. Types, sizes, and quantities come out structured, each traceable to its sheet, so checking a number is one click instead of one afternoon.
How does 4 Eyes catch missed windows?
Schedule, plan symbols, and legend get counted independently and reconciled. Disagreements are surfaced as discrepancies for a human call. A window missing from the schedule but present on the plans is exactly the kind of miss that becomes an expensive phone call in month four.
What happens when the set gets revised?
Upload the revision and recount. Minutes, not another evening. Compare against the previous takeoff to see what actually changed before you re-price.
Estimator questions
Does it handle mulled units and window walls?
Configurations carried in the schedule come through in the takeoff. Storefront and curtain wall live in different divisions and are not what this trade module targets today; we say that plainly rather than overclaim.
Can it count from unit plans multiplied across buildings?
Yes, that multiplication is exactly where hand counts go wrong and where the cross-check earns its keep.
What file types work?
PDF drawing sets, the format bids actually arrive in. Upload the full set rather than cropped sheets for the schedule cross-check to work.
