The Click Work Is Handled
Takeoff Boost™ is a suite of AI tools built directly into PlanSwift. No extra software. No new workflow. Just fewer hours spent on the parts that don’t need you.

Point at one instance of a symbol and AI finds every match across your entire plan set automatically.
Auto Scale reads title blocks and sets the correct scale across every sheet — no manual entry required.

Construction estimating software FAQ
PlanSwift is takeoff and estimating software built for construction estimators across general contracting and specialty trades. It turns construction plans into measurable, countable, exportable estimates, and with Takeoff Boost, it does it all in just minutes.
Yes. Takeoff Boost is a suite of AI tools built directly into PlanSwift. No extra software, no separate workflow. It handles the manual measuring, counting, scaling, and bookmarking that used to slow down every takeoff. You stay in PlanSwift, working the way you already do.
A construction takeoff is the process of measuring everything on a set of plans: walls, doors, fixtures, square footage, to estimate the materials, labor, and cost of a job. Done by hand, it can take hours. With Takeoff Boost in PlanSwift, you can run a first pass in minutes.
No, and it's not built to. Takeoff Boost handles the manual click-and-count work that doesn't need your expertise. Your judgment, your scope decisions, and your final numbers are still yours. AI just gets you to the review stage faster, so your time goes to the parts of estimating that win bids.
Takeoff Boost is built to give you a head start, not a finished bid. It’s accurate enough to save you hours on the manual work, and you review and adjust the output before it becomes your final takeoff. Same control you've always had. Faster results to start from.
Yes, that's one of the reasons estimators have trusted PlanSwift for years. The point-and-click, drag-and-drop workflow is intuitive enough that most users are productive within a day. Takeoff Boost doesn't change that. It adds AI speed to the same easy workflow.
