AI-assisted takeoff software for commercial lighting estimators

Visit Bidflow

LuxTakeoff by Bidflow is AI-assisted takeoff software for commercial lighting estimators. It reads drawing sets to extract fixture counts, linear quantities, perimeter and area measurements, and fixture schedule data, with every result reviewable and editable before quoting. The software addresses the repetitive work of counting and measuring across RCPs, details, and elevations, sheet after sheet.

Key features include Auto Measurement for linear runs, Tag Recognition with a review queue for uncertain items, Schedule Extraction for reading lighting schedules, and Work Areas for suggested takeoff regions. It offers Project Setup with auto-extraction of project details, a Full Takeoff Table for final review and export, and Revision Reuse for copying takeoffs to revised sheets. The software supports interior, back-of-house, site, and landscape schedules, and flags emergency fixtures for confirmation. It is scoped to lighting only, excluding lighting controls, sensors, switches, and general power.

LuxTakeoff is designed for lighting distributors, supply houses, and electrical contractors who quote commercial lighting. The pages describe a demo-based access model without detailing specific plans or pricing.
