Everything you need to bid steel, in one app

Takeoff, pricing, proposals and revisions that work together, so every number on the proposal traces back to a line on the drawing.

Steel takeoff

Space, pick the shape, click. Weights and lengths total as you go, with exact numpad entry when you need it.

Space, item, clickPress Space, type w12x35, press Enter and click the ends. The member is drawn instantly at the right length and weight, and the totals update.
Exact dimensions from the numpadType 20 Tab 5 Tab 3/8 and press a numpad direction to draw an exact 20'-5 3/8" member at any angle, without hunting for points.
Scales read from the sheetThe scale printed on the sheet is offered in one click, or calibrate on any dimension. Scale regions handle details drawn at a different scale on the same page.
Snaps to the drawing's own linesLine ends, intersections and points on a line come from the PDF's vectors, so takeoffs land exactly where the drawing says.

Material from takeoff weights, labor from production rates, markup your way. Every line traces back to the drawing.

Material priced from your takeoffEvery item is priced by your price book, bought in the stock lengths you buy (20, 40, 50 ft beams; 24, 48 ft tubes) with drops and stock waste carried into the price.
Labor from production ratesHours from weight, length, area, count or pieces at your rates, regular, overtime and double time with burden. Past jobs' hours per ton are shown as a check.
Assemblies priced part by partStairs, railings, joists and epoxy anchors are recipes of priced parts and labor minutes, so a 120 ft guardrail prices itself the moment you draw it.
Alternates, options and vendor quotesTrack alternates and options separately, attach vendor quote PDFs (total, number and expiry are read for you) and see the contract value from accepted alternates.

Your clause library, logo and colors. Inclusions, exclusions and clarifications that stay consistent bid after bid.

A clause library that grows with youInclusions, exclusions and clarifications you reuse on every bid, with conflicts flagged when an inclusion and an exclusion disagree.
Your brand on every pageCompany logo and color on the proposal, with a live print preview. Export to PDF or Word.
Drafted in your own voiceOptional AI drafting writes the scope sections from the estimate in the style you set. You accept each section; nothing changes without you.
Locked revisionsSubmit Rev 0 and it's an immutable snapshot. Compare any two revisions: price change, cost by category, takeoff changes and drawings added or removed.

New sheets flagged on arrival, superseded sheets marked everywhere, and a color overlay that boxes every change.

New drawings flagged on arrivalDrawings that land in the job folder (including through Dropbox or OneDrive) are fingerprinted and flagged NEW or CHANGED. Your finished takeoff is never touched.
Color overlay comparisonBlue on this revision, red on the other, black on both. Changed linework is boxed and you step through each change. Sheets are matched by number and aligned automatically.
Drawing sets and addendaBid set, addenda and revisions with dates and review status. Superseded sheets are marked everywhere, and takeoff on them is flagged before you submit.

Scans sheets for steel scope, reviews estimates for missed items and drafts proposals. You approve everything.

Scan sheets for steel scopeFinds beams, columns, lintels, stairs, rails, embeds and misc metals on a sheet and marks each on the drawing for you to take off or dismiss. Other trades are set aside.
Review the estimate for gapsLooks over the takeoff and pricing and suggests what's missing, as priced lines you can add in one click.
Draft the proposalWrites inclusions, exclusions and clarifications from the estimate in each estimator's own style.
Pay only for what you useAI runs on prepaid company credits, with no per-seat AI fee. Most sheets cost a few cents to scan. Everything else in the app works without AI and offline.

No internet needed, no save button, and two estimators can work the same job through Dropbox or OneDrive.

No internet requiredOpen, take off, price and write the proposal with no connection. Only the optional AI features need the internet.
No save button, everEvery change is saved the moment you make it, and survives a crash or power cut. You pick up exactly where you left off.
Two estimators, one jobShare the job folder through Dropbox or OneDrive. Unrelated changes merge automatically; edits to the same thing are kept for review, never lost.
Company settings everywherePrice book, labor rates, clause library, branding, and your own takeoff items and assemblies sync to everyone signed in to your company, through your account. No shared folder needed.
