Automated Material Counting from Blueprints

Upload a floor plan or blueprint, and Togal.AI's AI automatically identifies walls, doors, windows, and other materials. The platform generates a count and area measurements without manual tracing or clicking. This feature is the core value proposition, directly replacing hours of manual work with a few minutes of review.

Business outcome: Reduce takeoff time by up to 80%, freeing estimators to work on more bids or deeper cost analysis.

Integrated Cost Estimating with Local Pricing

The platform links detected materials to a cost database, allowing users to generate a preliminary budget estimate alongside the takeoff. This connects the quantity survey directly to a financial estimate, reducing the need to export data to separate spreadsheets or estimating software.

Business outcome: Generate a first-pass budget estimate in the same session as the takeoff, accelerating the bid preparation cycle.

High Accuracy with Human Review Layer

Togal.AI claims around 98% accuracy on standard takeoffs. The platform is designed for a human-in-the-loop workflow: the AI does the heavy lifting, and the estimator reviews and adjusts the results. This balance between automation and oversight is critical for construction where errors have real financial consequences.

Business outcome: Achieve consistent, reliable takeoffs that require only spot-checking, not redoing.

Bid Submission in Hours, Not Days

For a typical commercial blueprint, Togal.AI processes the takeoff in minutes. This speed allows contractors to respond to more bid opportunities within the same timeframe, especially useful for firms that compete on turnaround time.

Business outcome: Increase bid volume by 2-3x without hiring additional estimating staff.

Cloud-Based Team Access and Review

Projects and takeoffs are stored in the cloud, enabling team members to review, comment, and adjust estimates from any device. This facilitates collaboration between the field and the office, ensuring that the final bid reflects real-world conditions.

Business outcome: Improve communication between estimators and project managers, reducing costly rework during construction.

Export to Common Estimating Formats

Takeoffs can be exported to CSV or integrated with popular estimating software like Bluebeam, Procore, and others. This ensures that Togal.AI fits into existing workflows rather than requiring a complete overhaul of the tech stack.

Business outcome: Adopt AI takeoffs without disrupting established cost-estimating processes and software investments.

• Speed of TakeoffProcesses a complex floor plan in minutes, a task that would take a skilled estimator hours.
• Consistency Across BidsAI applies the same detection logic to every blueprint, reducing variance between estimators.
• Low Learning CurveUpload and review workflow is intuitive for anyone familiar with digital blueprints.
• Free Trial AccessAllows teams to validate the accuracy on their own projects before committing financially.

• Blueprint Quality DependencyAccuracy drops significantly on low-resolution scans, hand-drawn plans, or non-standard architectural drawings.
• Not a Full Estimating SuiteHandles takeoffs and preliminary cost data, but does not replace detailed cost databases or labor productivity analysis.
• Limited CustomizationUsers cannot easily train the AI on proprietary material types or unique project conditions without support.
• Professional RealityTogal.AI is a powerful accelerator for the takeoff phase, but it does not eliminate the need for experienced estimators to review, adjust, and apply real-world cost factors.

Commercial General Contractor Bidding

A mid-sized GC managing 10-20 bids per month can use Togal.AI to process all takeoffs in a single day, freeing estimators to focus on supplier negotiations and risk analysis.

Subcontractor Quantity Verification

An electrical subcontractor can upload MEP drawings to quickly verify conduit and fixture counts, ensuring their bid aligns with the general contractor's scope.

Design-Build Pre-Construction

Design-build firms can use Togal.AI to generate early-stage cost estimates from schematic designs, enabling faster feasibility analysis for clients.

Owner's Representative Cost Validation

Owners and developers can run contractor-submitted takeoffs through Togal.AI as a second check, ensuring bids are based on accurate quantities.
