Start a takeoff

Drop the drawing set. The system reads it while you pour the coffee.

STEP 01 / 07

01 · THE DROP

Drop your plans on the page

  1. Drag your plan PDF anywhere onto the page.
  2. Pages appear as they load — no waiting screen.
  3. The system reads the set by itself: sheet names, door codes, floors, scale.

No account needed. Prefer clicking? Browse Files does the same thing.

Dropping a plan PDF — pages render, the system reads the set, and one question asks who the takeoff is for

02 · ONE QUESTION

Type who it's for

  1. Type the customer's name.
  2. Press Enter. A new name creates the customer on the spot.

That's the only question. The takeoff opens ready to count.
