Upload your drawings — or just tell us about your project — and get real material quantities, honest cost ranges, and an Ontario Building Code check. No jargon, no surprises.
Upload a permit set. The AI reads the drawings like a senior estimator and builds your material takeoff.
The same formulas estimators use — how much soil comes out of a basement dig (and why the truck bill is 35% bigger than the hole), and what GTA construction really costs per square foot in 2026.
Use the free calculators →No fluff — every guide answers the question in the first two sentences, then shows the math.
Real per-square-foot ranges, what drives them, and where budgets blow up.

The measured list of every material a project needs — division by division.
Read → Concrete · Div 03Measuring volume in m³ — slabs, walls, footings, columns — by strength.
Read → Rebar · Div 03Reinforcing steel by weight — bar size, spacing, layers and laps.
Read → Formwork · Div 03Contact area in m² — both wall faces, soffits, and single-faced forming.
Read → Steel · Div 05Tonnage from the section mark — and why plan-based steel gets under-read.
Read → Earthwork · Div 31Bank vs loose volume, swell factor, dig depth, and disposal.
Read → Mechanical · Div 21–23Counting equipment from the schedules — and the stated-total rule.
Read → Electrical · Div 26Reading the single-line for distribution — then counting devices off the plans.
