Takeoff Agent

Reads bid drawings alongside the spec. Extracts equipment counts by type (passenger, freight, service), capacity, speed, stops, fixture grades, and finish callouts.

Cross-references the equipment list against the spec to flag inconsistencies before they become RFIs. The drawing shows eight passenger units. The spec narrative says nine. Takeoff Agent catches the gap on day one.

Outputs a structured takeoff that feeds your pricing workbook. Your rep stops counting symbols on a drawing with a highlighter and starts pricing.

Sales reps assembling the bid. Saves eight to 15 hours of manual takeoff per spec. The rep who used to spend a full day pulling counts off drawings now spends an hour reviewing the takeoff and another two hours pricing the gaps the agent flagged.
