Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Beam AI

What is a landscaping takeoff?

A landscaping takeoff is the process of identifying and measuring quantities to calculate materials like soil, trees, mulch, irrigation, and hardscapes.

  • In construction jobs, this is done from landscaping plans, planting schedules, and blueprint drawings.
  • In maintenance jobs, this involves using aerial imagery to measure lawns, shrubs, hedges, trees, sidewalks, and other site elements.

How does landscaping takeoff software work?

Landscaping takeoff software like Beam AI automates the entire process. Beam AI’s plan takeoff software for landscaping reads the drawings to extract all material quantities automatically no manual tracing needed.

  • For construction jobs, you upload your landscaping plans, confirm scope, and Beam AI extracts all material quantities directly from the drawings.
  • For maintenance jobs, you enter the property address, confirm or edit the lot boundary, and AI measures lawns, beds, trees, and hardscapes from aerial imagery.

Every output is reviewed by our QA team before delivery, so you receive accurate results in shareable formats like Excel, PDF, or view-only links.

Can Beam AI be used for both softscapes and hardscapes?

Yes. Beam AI supports takeoffs for all aspects of landscaping:

  • Softscapes: planting areas, trees, shrubs, hedges, grass, mulch, irrigation, and groundcover.
  • Hardscapes: walkways, patios, retaining walls, sidewalks, and other built elements.

What format are the takeoff results in?

Export your landscaping takeoff in custom Excel formats for estimating, generate branded PDFs for clients, or share a simple link for stakeholders.

How does AI-based landscaping takeoff software handle revisions?

Beam AI detects changes across addenda. You’ll get a side-by-side Addendum Variance Report, highlighting any quantity changes, new items, and updates for seamless revisions, , which can then be reflected in your landscape bidding software.

How does pricing work for AI-based landscaping takeoff software?

Beam AI operates on an annual subscription model tailored to your project’s needs. You’ll receive credits for usable sheets, which can be applied throughout our AI takeoff software so you can run unlimited landscaping takeoffs throughout the subscription. Visit the pricing page for full details.

What is landscape takeoff software?

Landscape takeoff software is a digital tool that automates the calculation of material quantities for landscaping projects. By measuring elements directly from digital blueprints or aerial imagery—like turf, beds, plants, and hardscapes—it streamlines cost estimation, bid preparation, and project planning, saving contractors and designers time while improving accuracy.

What are landscaping takeoff services?

Landscaping takeoff services provide detailed measurements of materials, labor, and equipment needed for a project. Using blueprints or site plans, these services generate accurate reports that help landscape professionals submit competitive bids, manage budgets, and plan for softscapes, hardscapes, irrigation, and other components efficiently.

What is interior landscaping takeoff?

Interior landscaping takeoff is the process of calculating the exact materials, quantities, and costs required for indoor plant design and installation projects. Like traditional construction takeoffs, it ensures accurate cost estimates and helps contractors and designers submit competitive, reliable bids. Modern interior landscaping takeoff services make this process even more efficient by providing fast, precise quantity data tailored to indoor landscaping needs.

What is involved in an interior landscaping takeoff?

A detailed interior landscaping takeoff involves reviewing digital or physical project plans, measuring areas, counting plants, soil, planters, and other materials, and considering labor and equipment needs. The goal is to produce a comprehensive material list and accurate project estimate.

What is landscaping estimating takeoff?

Landscaping estimating takeoff is the process of calculating all materials, quantities, and areas needed for a landscaping project. Estimators “take off” dimensions from blueprints or plans to generate detailed material lists, which are then used for cost estimation and bid preparation.

What is landscape takeoff software for Mac?

Landscape takeoff software for Mac allows contractors and designers to measure and quantify materials from digital plans on macOS. Some workflows use Excel alongside takeoff software to create material lists, calculate costs, and generate estimates efficiently.

What is landscape blueprint takeoff software?

Landscape blueprint takeoff software enables landscape contractors and designers to digitally trace and measure project elements—like turf, soil, plants, and hardscapes—directly from blueprints. It automates a traditionally manual process, generating accurate material lists and cost estimates while reducing errors and saving time.

What is landscape quantity takeoff?

A landscape quantity takeoff is the detailed process of analyzing a landscape design plan to identify, measure, and count all materials and resources needed for a project. Using specialized software, this creates an accurate material inventory for cost estimation, bidding, and resource management.

How does AI takeoff data connect with landscape bidding software?

AI takeoff software like Beam AI automatically measures sod, mulch, hardscapes, plant counts, and irrigation lines, exporting clean, verified quantities directly into Excel. These itemized totals plug straight into your preferred landscape bidding software or internal pricing templates, allowing estimators to apply labor rates, equipment costs, and profit margins instantly to generate competitive, bid-ready proposals without manual data entry.
