Take-offs are the slowest part of winning bigger work

Measuring up a set of drawings or a tender pack by hand is hours of careful work — and one missed room can sink the margin or cost you the job.

Measuring by hand

Scale rule, highlighter, hours

Printing drawings, scaling each room, highlighting what's flooring, keying areas into a spreadsheet — then doing it all again when the architect issues a revision. Big tenders sit on the desk because nobody has a spare evening to price them.

With BillyBot

The drawing, read in minutes

Upload the plan, PDF or schedule and BillyBot's vision AI pulls out every room and area, organised by building and floor. You review the take-off, it prices on your rates, and you get the estimate out while it still matters.

How BillyBot estimates from a drawing

From a tender pack to a priced estimate in four steps.

1

Upload the plans

Send the floor plans, PDF drawings, site photos or an Excel/CSV schedule of works — even a whole tender pack.

2

Billy takes it off

Vision AI reads the drawings, identifies each room and area and extracts the dimensions, filtering to what's actually flooring.

3

You review the areas

Check the measured areas, organised by building and floor. Anything unclear, Billy flags rather than guesses.

4

Priced estimate

The areas flow into a quote on your rates and into the cutting plan — ready to send or drop into your accounts.

Estimating built for the flooring trade

More than an area calculator — it reads the documents and understands the scope.

📄

Reads PDF drawings

Converts PDF plans page by page and extracts the rooms and areas — no printing or scaling by hand.

👁️

Vision AI take-offs

Reads floor plans, scale drawings and site photos to pull out dimensions and areas automatically.

📊

Schedules of work

Reads Excel and CSV schedules and filters them down to the flooring-relevant lines.

📋

Schedule of Rates (SOR)

Supports SOR pricing with your own item codes — built for council, housing association and contract work.

🏢

Multi-building & floor

Organises areas by building and floor, so large commercial estimates stay clear and structured.

🔎

Flags missing info

If a drawing has no dimensions or scale, Billy asks for them instead of guessing — you control the numbers.

💷

Priced on your rates

Take-offs are priced on your own supplier prices and markups — net costs stay private and encrypted.

📐

Straight to cutting plan

Measured areas feed the cutting plan, so material and waste are worked out too.

🧵

Every flooring type

Carpet, LVT, laminate, vinyl, tiles, engineered wood, safety flooring, Whiterock and more.

From tender pack to priced estimate

Estimating is where contract and commercial flooring jobs are won — and where the hours quietly disappear. BillyBot was built by a flooring business to take the grind out of it: read the drawings, take off the areas, and price the work on your own rates, so you can bid more jobs without burning your evenings.

It's one part of the same AI operator that also does your flooring quoting and cutting plans — estimate, quote and order, all in one place.
