AI BOQ
Paste a scope of work, upload a document, or upload a drawing — get a draft BOQ to review.
AI BOQ turns a scope of work, document, or drawing/floor plan into a draft Bill of Quantities. Paste text, upload a document, or upload a PDF/image drawing, and CATBOQ drafts BOQ items and detects elements or symbols automatically.
You review, correct and match every item before it's added to your project's BOQ — your team stays in control of the final numbers, with less manual drafting.
