Coming soon for architects

BOQs from your plans, room by room.

Click each room on your plan or elevation and pick its finishes once. Floors, walls, ceilings, skirting and carpentry are worked out for you, and a design change updates the whole BOQ.

Built on maths, not AI. What you measure is what you get.

Three steps from drawing to BOQ

Your staff fill two simple tables. The app does the multiplying and adding.

Step 1

Rooms

Click each room, lobby or passage on the plan, or type its size. Doors and windows are found and deducted the IS 1200 way.

Step 2

Finishes

Pick floor, skirting, dado, walls and ceiling once for each type of room. Change only the odd one out.

Step 3

BOQ

Summary by trade with cost per sq ft, the BOQ, approved makes and general notes, ready to send.

Made for the way architects work

What the architect version is being built to do.

Plans and elevationsRoom sizes from the plan; heights, facades, glazing and external paint from the elevations.
Design revisionsOpen the revised drawing, see which rooms changed and what it does to the cost, then accept it as the next revision.
CarpentryWardrobes, kitchen units and panelling per room, with a description builder for ply, laminate and hardware.
Floors and wingsTypical floors counted once, every building and wing in one project, and an area statement from the same rooms.
Client and contractor copiesA clear summary for the client and a blank-rate BOQ for contractors, from the same file.
Contractor billsCheck running bills against the BOQ and earlier bills before you certify payment.
