About

TradeOff is cloud-based software for takeoff, estimating, and progress billing that streamlines workflows from blueprint analysis to client payment. The platform enables users to upload PDF drawings directly into their browser, where scale calibration, trace, and count tools simplify quantity aggregation. An AI assistant enhances this process by extracting quantities, detecting scales, and suggesting rates. The estimating matrix provides a spreadsheet-style grid for pricing, while progress billing features support schedule-of-values billing, retainage tracking, and tax compliance like CIS deductions and VAT reverse charges. Payment processing is supported through Stripe and BACS, complemented by team collaboration roles and one-click PDF exports for branded estimates and payment applications.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - Super easy to use - rational and affordable pricing - super responsive support - truly adaptive and flexible - collab is instant - not cluttered with useless or complicated extras

Cons

  • Nothing. There were a couple of little things that I liked about other software (backspace to delete last point, etc) that I mentioned to the team, and they went out of their way to ADD THEM to their product. There's literally nothing I don't like about Buildee.
