About

Take-Off by WEQS is Windows desktop software for quantity surveyors and construction estimators measuring building drawings. It opens PDF, DWG, DXF and DWFx files, along with drawing photos and scans. After setting a scale, users measure areas, lengths, counts and angles by tracing or selecting existing linework in supported vector drawings. Measurements can be grouped and colour-coded, assigned reference numbers, and marked checked or queried. The take-off list links each quantity to its place on the drawing and totals items by group. Projects save drawings and measurements together in one file. Users can export quantities to Excel or CSV, copy rows into spreadsheets, and print marked-up drawings to PDF. The application installs and runs locally on Windows 10 or 11 and works offline, keeping drawings and quantities on the user's computer. It supports quantity take-off and drawing review workflows for construction plans.

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.
