New Job

Start a job two ways: Scan Pack scans a drawing pack into a Bill of Materials and Quote; Manual Quote builds a quote by hand with no drawings.

Upload the job's structural and architectural drawings plus calcs (PDF), CAD/BIM files, or both. The scan runs in the background (a few minutes). Drawings are processed then discarded — only the BoM and Quote are kept in your portfolio.

A complete pack gives the most accurate take-off — the engine reads best with all of these (checked against your file names as you add them):

    Drag & drop the job's PDF drawing pack

    or browse files

    PDF Structural drawings PDF Architectural plans PDF Calc packs

    Drag & drop the job's CAD drawing pack

    or browse files

    IFC BIM model RVT Revit model DWG DXF CAD drawings + SKP · STEP · CTB · PAT …

    Use PDFs, CAD/BIM files, or both. IFC, DXF and DWG are read by the engine — machine-read member counts and callouts, and the drawings themselves rendered and read like PDF sheets (enough on their own for a CAD-only job). Other formats are stored to improve accuracy, not yet read.

    Build a quote by hand — no drawings, no scan. You get the same quote grid: add sections, then add products at catalogue prices or your own, plus labour and plant lines at your rates. Manual jobs are quote-only — no drawing take-off, so no Bill of Materials.

    My Jobs

    Every job in your portfolio, newest first — open its Bill of Materials or Quote from the row, or rename and delete from its menu. Manual jobs are quote-only: they have no drawing take-off, so their Bill of Materials is unavailable. Fifty jobs show a page; search by name, id or status.

    Manual

    Scanning drawings… this takes a few minutes. The page updates automatically.

    Stage 1
    Stage 2

    Review upload

    Check the drawing set before the scan runs. Each file is scan-checked as it lands: ✔ structural (drawings or calcs), ✔ architectural (plans, elevations, sections), ✘ not applicable (forms, statements — left unticked: out unless you tick them).

    The plans, measured

    Pack checklist — verified from the scanned pages:

      Missing something? Add it here before scanning — new files are scanned like the rest.

      No architectural drawings found in this pack — the BoM and quote will cover the structural package only. To include walls, openings, finishes and coverings, add the proposed floor plans, elevations and roof plan with “Add more files” above.

      No plans could be measured for this upload, so say what the works are — tick what this job covers (optional; the take-off lists only new work inside it):

      Bill of Materials

      The exact take-off: documented members + standard inclusions, with call-off diagrams.

      Export PDF XLS

      Quote

      Prices the BoM in purchasable units against the catalogue. Free to re-run — it never touches the BoM.

      Export
      PDF XLS

      Dimensions

      The measured quantities the take-off is built on, and where each was read from. Correct any the drawings under-stated, then Recalculate — derived materials (insulation, blocks, battens, mortar…) re-compute to match. Counted members (beams, lintels, padstones) are never changed by this.

      Bill of Materials

      The take-off exactly as scanned and resolved from the drawings — fixed per the drawing set. Linked parts sit under the + expander of their parent. Adjust quantities and rates in the Quote line items.

      Quote — line items

      The printed quote is a clear, itemised list showing the quantity, purchasable unit, unit price, and line total. It remains read-only until you click Edit, which grants you full control over the job. You can update quantities, apply your own unit rates (which always override the catalogue), add flat or percentage mark-ups, insert notes, add new products, or remove sections. Clicking Save processes all your changes instantly, recalculating the totals and updating the PDF in one seamless step.

      Saved changes are not in the quote yet — Recalculate Quote to apply them to the totals and PDF.

      Structure

      The same lines as the Quote, grouped by where they sit in the building — substructure first, then each storey's elements, then the roof — each at the Quote's unit price. Read-only: every change is made on the Quote. A line the read could not place sits under Unplaced at the foot; choose where it belongs and it moves, and Element Rates follows it.

      Subtotals here are each line at its unit price. Packs round on the Quote, whose total is the job's — so these sit a little under it.

      Element Rates

      Each element of the structure as a rate over its measured quantity — the external walls per m² of the wall area the plans gave, the floors per m² of new floor, the roof per m² of slope — with the build-up beneath: every product the element takes, its quantity per unit, its price and what it adds to the rate. Where the plans measured no driving quantity the element shows its cost alone, never a rate. Read-only, derived from the Quote.

      Suppliers

      Your own list of preferred merchants — private to your account. Quote lines and purchase orders draw on this list, so every price can name the supplier it comes from. Add one with New, or start from a national chain.

      System Administration

      The account and the system: who signs in, who is an admin, each account's limits and additional users, and the seed prices every quote starts from. What is about a job stays on the job's screen.

      Nothing here for your role yet — the cards follow the capabilities ticked on the Roles card.

      Admins

      Admins hold the seeded Admin role — what it may do is ticked on the Roles card below; an email listed here reads as Admin once the person has a row. The owner (the recovery login) is always an admin; add others by the email they sign in with, or give a user with a row the role on the Accounts card instead.

        Accounts

        Each row is a sign-in: an account's owner, who sees only their own jobs, suppliers and orders — or a member of an account, who works in it. Create an owner and the app emails them a link to set their password (valid three days). A limit typed on a row applies to that account only; blank puts the default back. Additional users are the members the account may have (0 until Quantise grants some); lowering the number below the roster disables the newest members beyond it.

        Roles

        A role is a set of capabilities — what a person may do, never a button. Owner, Admin and User come seeded; make a new one for a person who needs something different, tick what it may do, and give it to them on the Accounts card. A tick takes effect at that person's next sign-in or page load. One tab per role; its capabilities run down.

        A new role starts with nothing ticked — open its tab, tick what it may do, Save.

        Notifications

        Two ways to reach every user's bell. Schedule a release: every user is told now; from the lead before the time, new scans are held until it is done, and a scan still running at the time restarts by itself afterwards — when the health page reads idle, merge, and the restart clears this. Post a notification now: a subject and a description, for information — no time, nothing held. Each row's Start says when its entry appears in every user's bell (blank = now) and its End when it clears; with no End, Retention days says how long it stays — 7 unless changed. A release always starts at its Start. Clear empties every bell now.

        No release scheduled.

        Schedule a release

        Post a notification

        Clear the bell

        Remove every notification — showing or posted for later — and every release note from every user's bell now. A release still scheduled keeps its notice.

        Seed prices

        The seed price every quote starts from, as data: download the template for a category or search, fill it, import it and see every change before it is saved; reload after an edit made outside the app; the change log says who changed what and when. A single row is set on the Products page.

          Stop this scan?

          Your drawings stay and you can scan again. The read so far is not kept.

          Close this ticket?

          You and the team each get one email with the conversation. A closed ticket can still be read.

          Clear your decisions on this job?

          Every line goes back to what the scan identified. Your answers and the render choice stay.

          Delete account

          Why are you leaving? This goes straight to the team, who will email you to confirm — nothing is removed until then.

          This deletes your account now — every job, Bill of Materials, quote, supplier, order and ticket — and cannot be undone.

          Section — drawn from the build-up

            Drawn in code from this element's own lines — the products' sizes, the drawing's words, the plans' measure, a depth you set. Nothing is generated; what no text states is labelled "not stated".
