PipeTakeoff reads the bill of materials on every isometric, builds the MTO and prices it from your own catalog and past quotes. Your estimators check lines instead of typing them, so the same team can bid more work.
Results expire after 24 hours, and uploads are deleted within 48 hours. Processing runs on Anthropic under standard commercial API terms.
Drop the whole bid package as one PDF. Every page is sorted for you: isos, BOM continuation sheets, P&IDs, plans, spec sheets. Confirm the split and the isos go to extraction.
Whatever columns your BOM prints, in whatever layout: qty, size, schedule, material, description and spec, plus material codes and valve tags. Each line gets a confidence score.
A grid that works like Excel. Commit the lines to your MTO once you've checked them, then export it, priced from your catalog and past quotes, to xlsx or csv.
Your estimators check lines instead of typing them. Every flagged row says why it was flagged. Open the sample, fix the flagged lines and commit it, right in your browser.
Every extraction goes to an estimator first. Nothing reaches your MTO until they commit it.
Low confidence, a description cut short, conflicting specs: the reason is printed on the row.
Every edit, commit and re-extract is written to a hash-chained audit log, so a changed entry shows.
Each new revision is compared line by line against the last one you committed. Lines already on an RFQ are flagged, so you know before material is ordered.
Filter the grid to what changed: removed, added, quantity and attribute changes against the last committed revision.
See if any of the changes in the latest revision impact RFQs that have already been sent out or bids that have already been received.
Switch the drawing between Rev A and Rev B, with the changes highlighted on the drawing.
Nothing reaches the MTO until an estimator commits the revision, and the commit is written to the audit log.
Select lines on the project MTO, pick vendors, and send. Quotes come back into one table with the totals already calculated. Award the whole RFQ or individual lines, then export the PO sheet.

Three vendors answer in three formats. Upload the quotes and they land in one table, matched line by line.
Vendors who haven't answered or declined still show, so you see when you're deciding on one quote out of three.
Extended prices, a total per vendor and the best mix across vendors. Each price shows how far it sits above the line's best, and one far below the median gets a Check price badge.
Award a line at a time or the whole RFQ to one vendor, then export a PO sheet per vendor to xlsx.
Lines on the MTO pick up your catalog price. Where nobody has set one, they use the median of your own past quotes for the same part, and say so.

Import a CSV, or add a part straight from a line on the MTO. Duplicate parts are suggested for merging.
Every quote you review adds to it. Open a part to see what each vendor charged and when.
Upload a quote that came in by email. Each line is marked over, under or matching your quantities, with unit mismatches, missing lines and alternates called out.
A per-foot price never prices a per-each line, and every price says where it came from, on screen and in the export.
I spent years doing material takeoffs (MTOs) by hand. The work was the same every time: open a PDF, count fittings, type rows into Excel, double-check schedules, and pass the MTO to a buyer. The drawings kept changing, and the takeoff and RFQs would inevitably fall behind.
PipeTakeoff.com is the tool I wish I had. Upload the iso, and it reads the BOM table printed on the drawing into an MTO for you to review, then exports to the format your buyer expects.
You stay in the loop. The AI never commits on its own: you check every line against the drawing and you make the calls. The typing goes away.
On the paid plan, $399 a month includes 1,000 drawings, and each drawing after that in the same month adds $0.50. A drawing is billed once, so revisions are free.

Your first project, up to 1,000 extractions in total, and up to 5 RFQs with 5 vendors each. No credit card and no time limit. Re-extracting a drawing counts as another extraction.
$399 a month includes 1,000 drawings. Each drawing above that in the same month adds $0.50. A drawing is billed once, the first time it is extracted, so revisions, re-extractions and quote review never add to it. The allowance resets on the 1st of each month (UTC).
No. Above 1,000 drawings in a month, each drawing adds $0.50. Users and projects are unlimited.
It reads what the BOM table says, and it marks the lines it is unsure of. Every change to the extraction is tested against drawings graded by hand, and a change that reads worse doesn't ship. Either way, an estimator checks every line before it goes into the MTO.
Yes, with nothing to set up. It reads the BOM table however your drawings lay it out, including material or item codes and valve tag numbers when the table has those columns. Tags that appear only as callouts on the drawing, outside the BOM table, aren't read yet.
Nothing to migrate. Upload the drawings on your desk; export xlsx and send RFQs exactly as you do now. How to evaluate AI pipe takeoff software
No. We never train or fine-tune on customer drawings, and our model provider's commercial terms prohibit it.
