Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Beam AI
What is general contractor takeoff software?
General contractor takeoff software helps contractors measure material quantities from construction plans and prepare accurate project estimates. It replaces manual measurements with a faster digital takeoff process, helping estimating teams save time and manage more bids.
Beam AI combines takeoff software with estimating support, giving contractors the flexibility to generate instant takeoffs or request complete, QA-checked takeoffs and estimates.
Which is the best general contractor takeoff software?
The best general contractor software should support multiple trades, produce accurate quantities, manage addenda, and fit your project volume and bidding workflow. It should also help your team increase bid capacity without adding more estimators.
Beam AI is an AI contractor software that offers instant takeoffs for HVAC, plumbing, and steel, along with Done For You, 99%+ accurate takeoffs and estimates across 15+ trades.
How does an AI-based general contractor takeoff software work?
AI-based software reads construction drawings, specifications, notes, and legends to identify and quantify project features. An AI takeoff tool then organizes these measurements into structured outputs that estimators can review and use for budgeting and bidding.
Beam AI’s automated takeoff software offers two workflows. Contractors can generate instant AI takeoffs for HVAC, plumbing, and steel or request complete, QA-checked takeoffs and estimates in 24 to 72 hours.
Why do general contractors rely on Beam AI takeoff software for takeoff boosts as compared to other construction takeoff companies?
General contractors choose Beam AI because it combines automation, human quality checks, multi-trade coverage, and estimating support in one platform. Unlike traditional contractor software, Beam AI helps teams run multiple takeoffs simultaneously, manage addenda, and produce bid-ready outputs.
As AI software for general contractors, Beam AI helps reduce estimating backlogs, improve accuracy, and increase bid capacity by up to 3X. For teams comparing the best AI takeoff software, Beam AI also provides both instant and Done For You workflows instead of limiting contractors to one takeoff process.
