Auto Detect / Map Interior Walls on Floor Plans

Planned

Analyze the Floor Plan PDF and auto - detect around Interior walls. This would automate (for the most part) linear and sqft of drywall, paint, baseboard, and trim estimate takeoffs instead of manually tracing it all out.

Hi, we are working on an auto takeoff tool, however currently we do not have this released. I'm curious what percent accuracy would be acceptable for you for auto takeoff vs a manual takeoff. Many of our competitors see error rates between 5-10% for their auto takeoffs. What would be acceptable to you for errors in your takeoff?

Thats great to hear. Its really just the walls that can be tedious to trace along especially on larger plans but yes i think max 10% would be acceptable, obviously if you could get 5% that would be fantastic. As of now the only program i know of that has the ability to "read the walls" on a pdf plan is 5Dplanner, which then builds a 3d model from it. Im not sure what their error margins are but it does a fairly good job.

The more accurate the better of course but, if we new the percentage of accuracy that it is we could adjust quantities to compensate
