Construction takeoff · Closed beta

An afternoon of counting, back in minutes.

Naxium reads your plan set and counts every tagged item on the drawings — signs, doors, windows, wall types. Where there is a schedule, it checks your count against it and tells you what does not agree.

01

Reads your construction plans.

02

Counts what is on them.

03

Cross-checks any schedule in the set.

04

Flags what does not agree.

You give it

The architect’s plan set, as the PDF it arrived in. Nothing renamed, nothing split, nothing marked up first.

You get back

An Excel takeoff in three sheets: your quantities, the open items Naxium would not guess at, and the notes it pulled off the drawings.

Stop counting.Start estimating.

Naxium takes the quantities off your plans, so the counting stops being your evening. The judgement stays yours.

What lands on your desk

The exceptions, not the count.

Where the plan and the schedule agree, you move on. Where they do not, you get the tag, the sheet and both numbers. Anything the drawing does not answer goes to your review queue instead of being quietly reconciled away.

Not every set comes with a schedule. When yours does not, Naxium says so rather than handing you an empty takeoff that looks finished.

The part that matters

Fast is only useful if the numbers are honest.

A takeoff you cannot trust is slower than doing it yourself, because you check all of it twice. Naxium counts from the drawing, tells you what it could not read, and never fills a gap with a guess.

FAQs

Questions, answered.

Who is it for?

Signage and fitout estimators first. Door, window and wall-type comparison is available for builders, with the rest of the builder scope coming after.

What do I give it?

The architectural plan set as a PDF, exactly as it arrived. No renaming, no splitting sheets, no marking anything up first.

What do I get back?

An Excel workbook with three sheets. Schedule is your quantities, tag by tag, with the sheet each figure came from. Open Items is everything Naxium would not guess at, so the uncertainty arrives with the answer instead of hiding inside it. Notes is what it pulled off the drawings that affects the count.

Does it price the job?

No, and it will not. Naxium measures. It maps what the architect drew and hands you the numbers. Pricing, risk and judgement stay with you.

What happens when a drawing is unclear?

It goes to your review queue with the sheet and the location it came from, so you make the call. Naxium will not guess past a discrepancy to make the output look clean.

What if the set has no schedule?

The schedule and the legend are where Naxium learns which tags exist in the first place. If a set has neither, there is nothing to build a vocabulary from, and it tells you that instead of returning an empty takeoff that reads as a completed one. A wrong answer that looks finished is the only outcome worse than no answer.

When does it open?

Closed beta, a small number of trades at a time so we can sit with each one properly. The waitlist is how you get a seat.
