Contractor Estimating Software Powered by AI Takeoffs
Automate takeoffs to streamline your estimating process and deliver bids 2x faster than before.
Trusted by 150+ contractors
Your estimating challenges start with manual takeoffs
Here’s how takeoffs slow down your estimating process
Leaves no time for strategic tasks
Takeoffs consume nearly 50-60% of an estimator’s time, leaving little room for critical activities like refining bids, engaging clients, or coordinating with suppliers. This leads to missed opportunities to enhance bid quality or build stronger relationships.
Takeoffs slow down bid turnarounds
Busy bidding cycles stretch estimating teams to their limits. With so much time consumed by manual takeoffs, contractors often miss out on new bid opportunities, losing ground to competitors who can handle larger workloads.

Frequently asked questions
What is a contractor estimating software?
Contractor estimating software is a tool that helps contractors create detailed and accurate project estimates. It automates many aspects of estimating, including calculating material costs, labor expenses, and overheads. However, most contractor estimating software still relies on manual takeoffs for quantity data. This is where Beam AI steps in, automating takeoffs and providing ready-to-use quantities that seamlessly integrate with your estimating software, enabling faster and more accurate bids.
What is the best contractor estimate software?
The “best” contractor estimating software depends on your specific needs as a contractor. Look for software that integrates seamlessly with takeoff tools, offers customizable workflows, supports various export formats, and simplifies tasks like material costing and scope creation. The ideal software should also be easy to use and scale with your growing project demands.
Does Beam AI automate estimating for Contractors?
Beam AI automates the most time-intensive part of contractor estimating: takeoffs. Instead of manually tracing and measuring, contractors can upload plans, define the scope, and let Beam AI handle the rest. While Beam AI focuses on takeoffs, it seamlessly integrates with contractor estimating software to provide accurate quantities, helping you finalize estimates, manage revisions, and submit more bids 2x faster.
