STACK

Cloud-based construction software for takeoff, estimating and field project management

Visit STACK

STACK is a cloud-based construction platform that connects preconstruction work with field execution. It reads plan sets, measures quantities from drawings, builds estimates, and carries scope and budgets into field workflows such as RFIs, daily reports, markups, and punch lists, reducing the need to rekey data between office and jobsite.

Key capabilities include STACK IQ for plan organization and search, AI Takeoff with auto-counting and measurement suggestions, Integrated Estimating with custom items and assemblies, STACK for Excel, ERP connectors, and regional cost data. The Build module offers mobile plan viewing, daily reports, configurable workflows, and punch lists, with a responsive jobsite app for iOS, Android, and Windows. Integrations connect STACK with partner tools, and an API is available.

STACK serves specialty contractors, general contractors, suppliers and manufacturers, and owners and developers. It is packaged as two bundles — Takeoff & Estimate and Build & Operate — or as the full platform, with a free version available.
