Drywall Takeoff Software: Wall SF Without the Highlighters
Drywall quantity is wall length × height × sides, minus what the finish schedule says isn't yours. Foreman AI's wall tracer detects wall runs on the floor plan, area tools measure ceilings, and the AI reads the finish schedule, wall types, and Division 09 specs so you know which walls are one layer, which are two, and which are someone else's scope.

Takeoff Tools
What a drywall takeoff looks like here.
AI wall trace
Wall runs detected automatically on the floor plan — review and convert to LF.
Area
Ceilings and soffits traced in SF at sheet scale.
Count
Access panels, corner bead conditions, and specialty items click-counted.
Cross-check
Ask the AI which wall types carry which assemblies — rated, insulated, double-layer.
Why Foreman AI
The AI reads the set. You keep control of the number.
Verified, auditable measurements
Quantities live on calibrated sheets as named objects you can see and correct — not black-box totals from a chat window.
Conflicts flagged before they cost you
Cross-discipline analysis surfaces the places the drawings disagree — the stuff that becomes RFIs and change orders.
Quantities straight into pricing
Takeoff objects flow into the budget builder, priced from your cost catalog, company history, AI market estimates, or web pricing.
FAQ
Drywall takeoff questions
How does it speed up a drywall takeoff?
The AI wall tracer detects wall runs so you're not clicking every wall, and the AI reads wall-type legends and finish schedules so you know what assembly each run carries. You verify on-sheet and keep the measured objects for the estimate.
Does it know wall types and ratings?
It reads the wall type legend, rated assembly tags, and spec sections, and answers questions like "which walls are 1-hour rated" with sheet references you can check.
Can it do ceilings?
Yes — trace ceiling areas in SF on the RCPs, and ask the AI to distinguish GWB ceilings from ACT from open structure.
