		Related Products KonstructIQ KonstructIQ is an AI-powered construction and financial platform designed for residential general contractors, remodeling firms, and home builders. It consolidates the full project lifecycle, from fast, professional estimates to budgeting, invoicing, payments, change-order management, cost tracking, subcontractor coordination, and real-time reporting, into a single interface. Its estimating module enables contractors to build detailed bids quickly, using customizable cost codes, markup or margin calculations, and either cost-plus or fixed-price models. Once an estimate is approved, it becomes the project budget; every subsequent bill, invoice, or change order automatically updates the budget so contractors maintain accurate job costing and profitability oversight. Payments to subcontractors or suppliers are built in, and support methods like ACH, checks, debit/credit cards, virtual cards, or Zelle, and invoices can be paid directly by clients through a portal to speed up cash flow. 4.8 out of 5 stars 7 Ratings Visit Website for KonstructIQ Buildxact Buildxact is an easy-to-use construction management and estimating platform built for residential builders and remodelers.

Basic is a free viewing, printing and takeoff tool. Its purpose is two-fold. First, it’s an excellent introduction to eTakeoff and provides simple measurement capabilities on its own. If you aren’t an estimator or only have simple takeoff needs, then Basic may be all you need. However, Basic is actually a powerful complement to our Advanced and Premier products. Basic is perfect as a free add-on for everyone else in your office who needs to view or print plans. eTakeoff combines the power of Togal.AI with SnapAI, our patented AI technology that enhances eTakeoff Dimension Premier with inherent AI capabilities. SnapAI enables point, logical line, and polyline selection, cutting electronic takeoff time in half by allowing an estimator to instantly grab corner points or entire line measurements instead of having to click on each end of the line.
