About eTakeoff

ETakeoff is a takeoff and cost estimation software from eTakeoff that helps manage construction projects effectively. It provides training guides, training videos, and a support center so users can get assistance and improve their skills. eTakeoff also includes software install links and the ability to join support sessions for real-time help. This comprehensive approach allows teams to stay on budget and adhere to project schedules by ensuring they have the necessary resources and knowledge. Key capabilities: training guides training videos support center join a support session software install links Best for: construction professionals that need accurate takeoff and cost estimation tools.

eTakeoff, now part of the Sage family, is a powerful Windows-based takeoff solution that has earned a reputation for improving both the speed and accuracy of the estimating process. Designed with contractors, subcontractors, architects, and quantity surveyors in mind, its primary purpose is to streamline how professionals measure, calculate, and organize takeoff data for competitive bids. What sets eTakeoff apart from many other systems is its innovative use of artificial intelligence. With both SnapAI and Togal.AI integrated, the software anticipates an estimator’s actions and even automatically detects, measures, and labels project spaces on architectural floor plans with up to 98% accuracy. This dual AI approach significantly reduces time spent on repetitive manual tasks, which can be the most tedious and error-prone parts of preparing a bid. One of the most attractive aspects of eTakeoff is its user-friendly interface. It is clean, intuitive, and enhanced with Tool Tip Help on every button, meaning that users can quickly learn the software without spending hours searching through help guides.
