The useful workflow is simple: read the plans, review the quantities, build the price, and communicate the scope clearly. These use cases show where BuildVision AI helps—and where estimator judgment still matters.
Three connected jobs
Each guide defines the current workflow plainly, including the work that still belongs to the estimator and contractor.
Use case · plan takeoff
Begin with a plan-linked quantity pass that remains under estimator control. BuildVision AI proposes counts and measurements from the PDF set, shows the drawing evidence, and lets the estimator correct the result before any quantity reaches pricing.
Use case · scope communication
Client collaboration starts with a scope both sides can understand. Use reviewed takeoff evidence, organized line items, assumptions, exclusions, and consistent proposal output to make bid conversations more concrete.
Use case · proposal output
Move from verified plan quantities to a consistent proposal without re-entering the scope from scratch. The estimator supplies current costs, labor, overhead, markup, exclusions, and terms before the quote is approved and issued.
