Common Questions
What blueprint formats can the AI read?
PDF is best - our AI handles standard architectural PDFs perfectly. We also support PNG, JPG, and TIFF images of plans. Multi-page PDFs are automatically split into individual sheets.
How accurate is the AI takeoff?
For standard residential and commercial plans, expect 85-95% accuracy on the first pass. You can quickly review and adjust anything the AI missed. Most users find it catches items they would have missed manually.
What if my blueprints are hand-drawn or poor quality?
The AI works best with clean, digital PDFs. Hand-drawn or low-resolution scans may need more manual adjustment, but you can still use our drawing tools to measure anything the AI misses.
Can I export the quantities to Excel?
Yes - export to Excel, CSV, or create a professional quote directly in BuildVision. Quantities include counts, linear feet, square footage, and any notes you add.
Does it work for my trade?
BuildVision works for GCs, electricians, plumbers, HVAC, roofers, painters, flooring contractors, and more. The AI recognizes components across all major construction trades.
