Sample result

One real job, start to finish.

This is what you get back. A real tender set from a museum fitout: the quote, the counted plan, the questions, the symbol key and the parts list - exactly as the robot produced them.

Real drawing, real robot output. These counts have not been checked by a person yet - that's your job in the review step. Logos, names and the title block are cropped out.

Step 01 · The quote

Upload the set. See the price first.

We read every page, sort out which ones are plans to count, and quote you before anything is counted.

Step 02 · The counted sheet

Every fitting boxed on the plan.

Each yellow box is one thing the robot counted. Red boxes are ones its own self-check thinks it missed - flagged, not counted, never quietly guessed.

Step 03 · The questions

Not sure? It asks. You tap.

Anything the robot isn't sure of becomes one quick question, with the choices taken straight off the consultant's legend. Try it - this one is real.

E301, photography studio. The self-check saw this symbol with no box on it. What is it?
Got it. In a real job your answer goes onto every box of this symbol and the totals update.
  • The choices are the consultant's own legend symbols, cut straight from the legend sheet.
  • One answer covers every box of that symbol - you don't click 22 times.
  • Skip anything you'd rather check on the plan. Nothing is guessed for you.
  • On this sheet there are 6 of these to tick off. Answer them, then download.
Step 04 · The symbol key

Every icon, next to its legend name.

So you can see at a glance what the robot took each symbol to be. Icons are cut from the plan itself.

The sample parts list for this sheet. On a real job it covers every sheet, with counts per sheet. Runs like conduit and cable tray aren't on it - take those off as usual.
