Measure ductwork, count diffusers, and quantify equipment in minutes. Tectonic's AI reads mechanical plans and generates accurate HVAC takeoffs automatically.
Manual takeoffs waste your time and cost you money. Sound familiar?
Tracing duct runs across multiple sheets, measuring lengths, and tracking size transitions takes hours. One mistake compounds through your entire estimate.
AHUs, RTUs, VAVs, fan coils - matching equipment tags to schedules and specifications requires careful cross-referencing that's easy to miss.
Supply diffusers, return grilles, exhaust fans - each with different sizes, types, and connection requirements. Manual counting is tedious and error-prone.
Hydronic piping, refrigerant lines, and condensate drains add complexity. Tracking pipe sizes, insulation requirements, and fittings is overwhelming.
AI-powered takeoffs that work the way you think.
AI traces duct runs, measures lengths by size, identifies fittings, and calculates sheet metal or flex duct quantities. Supports round, rectangular, and oval ducts.
Automatically identify and categorize all HVAC equipment from plans. Match to schedules for complete unit specifications and pricing.
Count and categorize every supply diffuser, return grille, and exhaust terminal. Includes neck sizes, types, and connection requirements.
Measure hydronic and refrigerant piping by diameter, including fittings, valves, and insulation requirements for accurate material and labor estimates.
Everything you need to know about hvac estimating with Tectonic.
Yes. Tectonic works with plans of any scale, from residential HVAC systems to large commercial mechanical rooms. The AI adapts to different drawing styles and complexity levels.
Tectonic identifies duct size changes, branches, and turns, automatically calculating fitting quantities. It categorizes elbows, tees, reducers, and other fittings by size and type.
Yes. Tectonic exports to Excel, CSV, and integrates with popular mechanical estimating software. Your takeoff data flows directly into your existing cost libraries.
Absolutely. Tectonic allows you to organize takeoffs by system (supply, return, exhaust, outside air) or by zone for more detailed pricing and labor allocation.
Most customers complete HVAC takeoffs 80-90% faster than manual methods. A project that took a full day can typically be completed in under an hour.
Join contractors who are cutting their takeoff time by 90% and winning more profitable work.
