Buildora AI Blueprint Scanning
AI Blueprint Estimator
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
AI takeoffs across 19 trades with live pricing from 45+ suppliers. Estimate faster, bill with AIA pay apps, catch clashes, and sync to QuickBooks, all from your phone.
Buildora is the construction platform that turns a jobsite photo into verified billing, a change-order letter, a closed punch item — and a paid retainage release. One tool. Four moats. A fraction of the cost.
WHY GENERAL CONTRACTORS SWITCH TO BUILDORA
▸ Photo-verified AIA G702/G703 billing
Snap a photo of your work, tag it to a Schedule-of-Values line, and Buildora's computer vision estimates % complete with a confidence score. Approve the estimate, and the G703 continuation sheet + G702 summary auto-fill. Every billing line is clickable to its source photo. Bank-, architect-, and owner-friendly.
▸ AI Change-Order Writer
Field crew takes a photo of a hidden condition and types one sentence. Buildora drafts the full CO letter: classification, cost lines, schedule impact, cause narrative. PM edits inline, exports a signed PDF, or pushes it into the next pay app.
▸ Photo-verified Punch List → Retainage release
Snap the deficiency, snap the fix. Our closeout inspector CV verifies "FIXED" or "NOT FIXED" with a written reason. Once every item is closed, one tap pushes your final retainage-release invoice into QuickBooks Online. Cash out in days, not months.
▸ 12-month Cash-Flow Forecast
SOV + pay-app cadence + retainage release triggers + pending change orders — all rolled into a month-by-month expected income chart across every active project. Zero spreadsheets.
BEYOND THE 4 MOATS
▸ AI blueprint takeoff across 19 trades — extracts materials + labor from a PDF in under a minute.
▸ Live supplier pricing from 45+ sources — real-time, not stale catalogs.
▸ Cross-trade clash detection on PDFs — no BIM model required.
▸ Code-grounded AI (NEC / IBC / IPC) — cites the section on every flagged item.
▸ Integrated RFQ + bid leveling — send, score, and award in one place.
▸ QuickBooks Online sync — per-line-item invoices with job-cost allocation. Auto-payment reconciliation.
▸ 3D coordination walkthrough — procedural rendering, no BIM required.
▸ Multilingual team chat pinned to blueprint locations — auto-translate per message.
▸ BIM / IFC ingest + LiDAR as-built comparison.

A Closer Look
• Verified trade accuracy — see live, independently-verified accuracy for each trade (electrical, plumbing, structural), graded against real estimator takeoffs. No marketing numbers, just proof.
• Instant takeoffs — uploads now populate immediately using our fast, exact vector engine, so you're not waiting on AI to read the sheet.
• Roofing takeoffs — roofing is now a full project type. Trace the roof right on the blueprint, tap the drains, and get exact area, squares, and linear feet.
• Electrical counts — automatic, vector-exact lighting-fixture counts with a per-symbol breakdown.
• Structural counts — automatic member counting straight from the schedule marks.
• Plumbing tools — new fixture review panel, a pipe-material picker, and a linear "Run" tracer for exact pipe lengths.
• Count Tracer — tap to count anything the AI pre-seeds for you, then clear a simple review queue.
• Net area & reconciliation — doors and windows now come with reconcile badges, plus a room-by-room Net Internal Area breakdown.
• Costs — per-trade subtotals, one-tap "Confirm All," and "Re-scan All" to refresh a project in a tap.
• Confidence everywhere — every detected item shows a confidence level, with a threshold gate before export so low-confidence items never slip into your numbers.
