How does takeoff from drawings work?

1

Upload drawing

Upload a drawing file to Massoi. Supports PDF, DWG, DXF, IFC, PNG and JPG formats. Scanned drawings are processed with OCR technology.

2

AI analysis

The AI identifies scale, building components and their dimensions. Walls, windows, doors, tiling and HVAC components are recognized automatically.

3

Quantity list

You receive a ready-made quantity list where every building component is itemized with units (m², lm, pcs, m³). Results are visually traceable to the original drawing.

4

Export and further use

Export the quantity list to Excel or continue directly to pricing and bid creation in Massoi. All data flows seamlessly forward.

Frequently asked about takeoff from drawings

How does takeoff from drawings actually work?
You upload a drawing (PDF, DWG, DXF, IFC, PNG or JPG) to Massoi. The AI detects the scale automatically, reads the building components — walls, windows, doors, tiling, HVAC — and calculates quantities in the correct units (m², lm, pcs, m³). It usually takes under 30 seconds per drawing page.
Which file formats does the AI support?
Supported formats: PDF (architectural and structural drawings), DWG and DXF (AutoCAD without conversion), IFC (BIM models with full 3D support), and PNG and JPG (scanned drawings and photographs). Scanned drawings are processed with OCR, so even older archived paper plans work.
How accurate is the AI on quantity takeoff?
Average component-recognition accuracy is around 95%. Accuracy depends on drawing quality and complexity — clean CAD files produce tighter results than low-resolution scans. Every calculated quantity is traceable back to the original drawing, so you can always review and adjust before sending a bid.
Where can I export the quantity list for further use?
Export the finished quantity list to Excel (.xlsx) or continue directly to pricing and bid creation inside Massoi. Export formats preserve component grouping and units, so the data flows cleanly into your own bid templates or contract estimating.
Does the AI need training on our drawings?
No. The AI is trained on thousands of Finnish and international construction drawings and recognizes standard symbols and markings out of the box. If you use an in-house symbol library or unusual conventions, bespoke onboarding is available — book a consultation and we'll assess whether custom model training is needed.
