Why top contractors trust Beam AI over traditional concrete estimating software for takeoffs
How our AI-based material takeoff software works for concrete estimating
Generate accurate concrete takeoffs in 4 simple steps.
Upload your project plans in PDF format
Drop your architectural or structural drawings, including slabs, columns, footings, and rebar layouts. Beam AI reads through all concrete-related blueprints and notes automatically.
Confirm your scope of work
Your pre-aligned scope captures standard concrete estimating items needed by you, like foundations, driveways, curbs, and walls. Review, confirm, or add project-specific deviations to ensure accuracy before AI processing.
Let AI handle the takeoff
Our AI extracts all relevant concrete quantities, from cubic yards to linear feet, directly from your uploaded drawings. Get trade-specific quantities that fit seamlessly into your concrete estimating software or blueprint estimating workflow.
Receive reviewed takeoffs in 24–72 hours
Every takeoff is verified by our QA team and delivered as a PDF, Excel sheet, and shareable link, compatible with all major material estimating software and quantity estimating workflows.
The hidden cost of manual takeoffs in your concrete estimating process
Manual quantity takeoffs hold your team back from scaling bids, improving accuracy, and increasing profit margins.
Still spending hours calculating cubic yards?
Concrete takeoffs can consume 50–80% of your bid cycle, time that could be spent value-engineering, managing vendors, or optimizing labor costs.
Losing bids to faster competitors?
With RFPs piling up, manual concrete estimating slows you down. You end up missing opportunities simply because your estimating bandwidth can’t keep up.
Future-ready concrete estimating software powered by AI-based takeoffs
Automate concrete material takeoffs, save time, and accelerate your estimating workflow, without changing how you work.
Save 90% of your time on concrete takeoffs
Beam AI automatically calculates concrete volumes for slabs, foundations, columns, and beams directly from your project blueprints. Get QA-reviewed takeoffs in 24–72 hours, ready to import into your preferred construction estimating or AI estimating software.
Bid 2X more jobs without adding more estimators
With Beam AI doing the heavy lifting, your team can send out more bids every week. Spend less time tracing and measuring, and more time optimizing mix designs, refining pricing, and improving profit margins.

FAQs
Is Beam AI a full concrete estimating software?
Beam AI automates the most time-intensive part of estimating, concrete material takeoffs. It’s not a full estimating tool, but it gives you clean Excel outputs that make it easy to add unit and labor costs in your preferred construction estimating software.
How does Beam AI handle concrete estimating?
Beam AI automatically extracts concrete quantities, slabs, formwork, rebar, foundations, and curbs, directly from blueprints. The data is QA-reviewed and delivered on the platform across multiple formats, including, organized Excel format, ready to price in your concrete estimating software.
Can Beam AI replace my existing construction estimating software?
No. Beam AI works alongside your current tools. Think of it as your AI estimating software that handles material takeoffs while you continue using your current system for pricing, labor, and proposals.
What kind of file do I receive after a concrete takeoff?
You receive a structured Excel file designed for concrete contractors. It includes:
- Line items like slabs, columns, footings, rebar, and concrete pads.
- Measured quantities in cubic yards, linear feet, or square feet.
- Assemblies (e.g., rebar + formwork + concrete volume)
- Callouts and notes to double-check against plan details.
You can plug this file directly into your estimating software to finalize costs.
How fast are AI takeoffs compared to manual estimating?
Beam AI delivers QA-reviewed takeoffs, saving you up to 90% of the time spent on manual concrete takeoffs. Get fully automated concrete takeoffs and estimating software of yours can have Excel outputs that ready to be used for preparing estimates.
Can Beam AI read blueprint drawings directly?
Yes. Beam AI acts as a blueprint estimating software for takeoffs, scanning your PDF drawings and extracting accurate material quantities for concrete, masonry, utilities, and more and delivering concrete quantity takeoff excel spreadsheet.
What makes Beam AI different from other concrete estimating tools?
Unlike traditional takeoff tools, Beam AI combines AI automation with QA verification. You get high-accuracy, ready-to-price outputs without manual clicking, tracing, or scaling.
