Scale once
Every sheet inherits it

The measuring is the job. The software is in the way.

Three reasons takeoff still takes you a whole evening.

The highlighter-and-legal-pad method

Plans printed at the shop, a highlighter, a scale ruler, and a legal pad of tick marks. It works, it's how you learned, and it costs you an evening and one transposed number per bid.

Click instead of tick. Click the run, click the fixtures. Counts and lengths total themselves, and nothing gets transposed at 11pm.

The revision you took off twice

Addendum 3 landed. Something moved. You don't know what, so you redo the whole takeoff to be safe — three hours to find one relocated panel.

See what moved. Load the new sheet against the old one and the differences light up. Take off the delta, not the drawing.

The license on the machine you're not at

PlanSwift is installed on the desktop at the shop. You're at the kitchen table with a laptop and a bid due at 9am. So you drive in, or you guess.

It's a browser tab. Log in from anything with a screen. The plans, the scale, and the takeoff are wherever you are.

Upload. Scale. Click.

The three things takeoff is, minus the workstation.

1

Drop in the PDF plan set

Any sheet size, any number of pages. Nothing to install, nothing to convert first.

2

Set the scale once

Click a known dimension and type what it is. Every sheet in the set inherits it — no per-page recalibration.

3

Click what you're counting

Linear runs, areas, and counts total live in the sidebar. Export to CSV and price it however you already price.

One plan. No perpetual license.

Less than an hour of the evening it's giving you back.
