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.

About
Zip Takeoff is a browser-based takeoff tool for sitework and heavy civil contractors who need accurate quantities without the cost of legacy desktop software. Upload plan PDFs and measure areas, lengths, and counts with vertex-level editing; automatic area pickup extracts vector geometry from supported PDFs for fast editable measurements, and scaled satellite imagery covers sites where plans aren't available. Group every measurement by pay item, turn areas into volumes and material weights with depth and density inputs, keep Base Bid and Alternates separate, and export pay-item totals to Excel with a marked-up plan set. Nothing to install — runs on Mac and Windows in the browser. Free plan: 10 projects, 5 GB storage, 1 estimator seat, full measurement tools and XLSX export. Pro: $39/mo per estimator seat; viewer seats free.
