Takeoff & Estimation
Exporting Data
Export every takeoff row with its source and review state as CSV, or create a quote from accepted AI suggestions and manual items.

Complete-document export
Collect every page before CSV or quote export, and stop with a clear explanation when the result would be incomplete.
- Whole-document CSV
- Quote line items
- Scale check
What you'll accomplish
Export a complete document or create and open the resulting quote.
Steps
- Finish review on every page, and calibrate measured pages before creating a quote.
- Choose CSV to download whole-document rows, or Export to quote to build quote lines.
- Wait while every page is collected; fix incomplete-page errors for either output and missing scale before quote creation.
- After quote creation, use Open quote in the success strip.
What to expect
- The CSV uses spreadsheet-friendly formatting and preserves labels with special characters.
- CSV keeps uncalibrated measured rows with a blank quantity; quote creation requires those pages to be calibrated.
- Quote export excludes dismissed and still-pending AI detections.
- Quote creation shows a clear nothing-to-export error; both outputs cancel if page collection is incomplete.
Good to know
The editor does not currently ship direct XLSX or PDF takeoff export, generic accounting sync, or an export-template designer.
