AI-powered document processing that turns your plans, specs, and permits into structured estimates and material takeoffs. Upload any construction document — PDF, images, CAD files — and our AI extracts dimensions, materials, quantities, and scope items. Every output is reviewed by a trained human before it reaches you.
Estimating is the bottleneck that kills growth. Our AI processes documents in minutes, not hours. A human double-checks everything so you can trust the output. Bid faster, bid right, and stop losing work because you couldn't turn estimates around fast enough. All data feeds directly into JSV's estimating and job costing tools.
