Single-family

Framing takeoffs for single-family homes.

Upload the house plans and the AI does the framing takeoff — walls, openings, headers and roof, traced on the plan — typically in 2–6 hours. You check it instead of counting it, and your first house we run with you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is this a takeoff service?

Not a queue you send plans into. Upload the house plans and the AI does the framing takeoff — typically 2–6 hours — and you check it against the drawings before it goes out. Your first house, we run together on a call.

I don't have anyone to do takeoffs. Does this still help?

That's who it's for. The AI drafts the takeoff and the material list; checking a draft takes a fraction of the time counting does, and we walk your first one with you.

What does the AI take off on a house?

Walls, plates and studs, headers and beams, floor and roof framing, sheathing, and window and door openings — traced by layer on your plans, with a material list by member and stock length.

How long does it take?

Typically 2–6 hours for the draft and material list, and never more than a day. Larger or more complex plan sets take longer.

What does it cost?

A subscription covers the workspace, and AI takeoff adds a fee per project based on the size of the plan set — you see it before the AI runs. Tracing by hand has no project fee. See the Pricing page, or book a demo and we'll price your projects.

How do I know the count is right?

Every quantity ties back to the line on the plan it came from. Click a number to see where it was measured, and fix the trace if it's off — the totals follow.

Can I see it on my own plans?

Yes. Book a demo and we'll run Aximos on one of your plan sets with you, so you can check the draft against the drawings yourself.
