Electrical Takeoff Software That Reads the Whole Plan Set
Electrical estimating dies by a thousand counts: fixtures, devices, switches, panels, home runs. Foreman AI reads the full plan set — not just the E-sheets — so you can count with click-to-count tools on calibrated sheets, measure conduit and feeder runs in linear feet, and ask the AI what the lighting schedule, panel schedule, and Division 26 specs actually require before you carry a number.

Takeoff Tools
What a electrical takeoff looks like here.
Count
Fixtures, receptacles, switches, data drops, smoke detectors — name a count category, pick a marker color, click every symbol. Every count is saved and auditable.
Linear
Conduit, feeder, and branch runs measured in LF on calibrated sheets — including risers and site runs on the civil sheets.
Highlights
Box out panels, gear, and service entries with notes the AI can use as context in estimates.
Cross-check
Ask the AI to reconcile the fixture schedule against what's actually drawn, sheet by sheet.
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
Electrical takeoff questions
Can it count electrical symbols automatically?
You count with fast click-to-count tools on calibrated sheets, and the AI reads schedules, keyed notes, and specs to tell you what each symbol is and what the spec requires. Every count stays on the sheet where you can verify it — no black-box totals you can't audit.
Does it read panel schedules and one-lines?
Yes. Foreman AI reads every sheet in the set, including panel schedules, riser diagrams, and one-line diagrams, and answers plain-English questions about them with the sheet reference.
Can I measure conduit runs from a PDF?
Yes — set the sheet scale once, then click along a run to get linear feet. Different sheets keep their own scales, so E-sheets at 1/8" and site plans at engineering scales both measure correctly.
