FAQs
How does Beam AI work?
Beam AI reads your project drawings and specifications, automatically identifies all material quantities, and delivers a complete, ready-to-use takeoff in formats like Excel and PDF. You can directly plug these into your pricing models or share them in bid packages.
What types of trades does Beam AI support?
Beam AI supports multiple trades — including HVAC/mechanical, concrete, electrical, plumbing, steel, civil, utilities, and more. It’s built for general contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers who want to scale their bid capacity.
Who can use Beam AI?
Beam AI is designed for:
- Subcontractors who want faster, more accurate takeoffs.
- General contractors who manage multi-trade projects.
- Suppliers and distributors who provide material quotes based on takeoffs.
What are the benefits of using Beam AI for takeoffs?
Beam AI (also known as iBeam) saves 15-20 hours/week for estimators. Multiply that for each project & month, and you have incredible time savings by automating manual takeoffs. It delivers accurate, bid-ready material quantities, reduces human error, and helps your team focus on pricing, strategy, and winning more bids. Additionally, Beam AI reads specs, notes, and legends, and automatically interprets details to do material takeoffs. Whether you’re managing large-scale beam construction projects or handling detailed trade-specific takeoffs, Beam AI ensures accuracy, speed, and consistency across every takeoff.
What do customers say about Beam AI?
Contractors using Beam AI report saving over 60 hours per week and bidding 3–5x more projects without additional staff. Read success stories and Beam AI reviews on the case studies page.
Can I request a demo of Beam AI?
Yes. You can schedule a live demo to see how Beam AI Takeoff automates the most time-consuming part of your estimating workflow. You can talk to our product expert to understand how iBeam Software fits in your preconstruction process and can scan your actual drawings and deliver results accordingly.
What does the pricing structure of Beam AI look like?
The pricing structure of Beam AI operates on an annual subscription model based on measurable sheet credits, allowing users to perform unlimited AI takeoffs throughout the year within their plan limit. Rather than a pay-per-job or pay-as-you-go pricing, Beam AI users purchase a bundle of sheet credits upfront, making it ideal for contractors or estimators who process 500 or more sheets annually.
Additionally, Beam AI allows limited rollover of unused sheet credits (up to 15%) into the next year, offering flexibility for fluctuating project volumes. This pricing model is designed to scale with your business size and project workload, making it particularly beneficial for construction estimators, suppliers, contractors, and project managers who handle a steady flow of bids throughout the year. For more details on pricing, visit our pricing page.
Is Beam AI cloud-based software?
Beam AI is a cloud-based platform that lets your team access drawings and takeoffs anytime, anywhere—no on-premise installation required. Through the iBeam Portal, users can easily collaborate, share projects in real time, and keep everyone aligned. You can easily share takeoffs with teammates, create personal duplicates, filter by team member, and opt in to team submission emails, right in your browser.
How do I perform iBeam login and access the iBeam portal?
To access your projects and takeoffs, simply visit the official Beam AI Portal by going to ibeam.ai or clicking the login button on the Beam AI homepage. Once there, enter your registered email and password to complete your iBeam login.
Through the iBeam Portal, users can upload drawings, track project progress, and download completed Beam AI takeoffs anytime, from any device.
If you encounter any issues while logging in, the Beam AI support team is available to help through the email assistance options, or you can directly contact your dedicated customer success manager.
What is the best Blueprint Takeoff Software for construction professionals?
The best blueprint takeoff software for construction professionals is one that automates the takeoff process, supports multiple trades, handles PDF site/plan uploads, and delivers accurate, bid-ready outputs quickly. Beam AI does exactly this: you upload your PDF site plans, confirm the scope of work for your trades, and the software’s AI extracts material quantities from the drawings. It then delivers a QA-checked takeoff within 24–72 hours.
How does Material Takeoff software simplify cost estimation?
Material takeoff software like Beam AI simplifies cost estimation in several ways:
- By automating the extraction of material quantities directly from uploaded plans (no manual tracing of lines or polygons).
- By providing detailed, structured Excel output, which you can plug into your costing/mark-up workflows. The quantities are ready for unit rates, labour, equipment, and mark-ups.
- By eliminating manual measurement and rework that typically slow down the takeoff process, Beam AI frees your team to focus on high-value tasks, such as winning more bids, scoping better, and responding to more projects.
Why is Quantity Takeoff important in construction?
Quantity takeoff is the starting point for every estimate because it tells you exactly what materials a project needs and how much it will cost. If the quantities are off, the entire estimate can fall apart. With Beam AI’s quantity takeoff software, this step becomes faster and far more accurate. The AI reads your plans automatically and delivers clear, ready-to-use material quantities within 24–72 hours, helping you bid with confidence.
What makes AI Takeoff Software better than traditional methods?
AI Takeoff Software removes the slow, manual measuring that holds estimating teams back. Beam AI automates this entire process by reading your plans, extracting material quantities, and handling last-minute addenda - so you don’t waste hours tracing drawings or reworking changes. By cutting takeoff time by up to 90% and reducing errors, Beam AI helps your team bid on more projects, respond faster, and deliver accurate estimates without adding extra staff.
Can General Contractors use Beam AI for estimating?
Yes. Beam AI is designed for general contractors who manage large, multi-trade scopes and tight bid timelines. It extracts quantities across architectural, structural, civil, and MEP plans, giving GCs reliable data for budgeting, subcontractor coordination, and competitive bidding.
Does Beam AI offer solutions for suppliers and distributors?
Yes, Beam AI supports suppliers and distributors who need fast, precise quantities to price materials accurately. With Beam AI’s supplier software, teams can quickly get the material quantities they need for steel, concrete, mechanical components, sitework materials, and more. This helps suppliers respond to quotes faster, reduce rework, and improve overall turnaround times.
What’s the best takeoff software for subcontractors?
Beam AI’s subcontractor software is built for trade-specific needs, offering automated takeoffs for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, concrete, roofing, flooring, and more. By handling the unique scope of each trade with precision, Beam AI helps subcontractors get accurate, ready-to-price quantities faster, bid more confidently, and take on more projects with the same team.
Does Beam AI provide trade-specific takeoff tools?
Absolutely. Beam AI offers multiple trade-specific takeoffs such as:
HVAC Takeoff Software: Automates duct, piping, and equipment quantity extraction for fast mechanical estimates.
Concrete Takeoff Software : Delivers accurate volumes, areas, and counts for concrete, rebar, and formwork.

Yes. For field service providers like landscapers, pavers, and snow-removal teams, Beam AI offers fast area and volume measurements that help estimate seasonal and outdoor jobs accurately. This makes it easier to plan resources, respond to RFPs, and manage recurring work.
Snow Removal Takeoff Software: Automates measurement of drive-lanes, sidewalks, and parking areas so snow contractors cut takeoff time by ~90% and submit more bids.
Landscaping Takeoff Software: Generates material quantities for lawns, mulch, shrubs, irrigation, and hardscape automatically, letting landscape teams double their bid volume without extra hours.
Paving Takeoff Software: Fully automates quantity capture for asphalt, concrete, curbs, striping, and site markings so paving contractors reclaim 15-20 hours per week and scale bidding.
