From A-Series to Estimate in Minutes: AI Takeoff That Reads Your Door and Window Schedules
Bobyard is an AI-powered takeoff and estimating software that helps fenestration estimators bid on more work in a fraction of the time.
Simply upload your A-series architectural drawings or door and window schedules, and Bobyard's computer-vision models read the plans, detect every opening, and count units by type, size, and callout in minutes. Details flow directly into a pre-built estimate that includes material and labor costs, so your team goes from drawings to a ready-to-price bid without any manual counting.
Bobyard is built to be simple. It features single-click detection and an intuitive interface that estimators young and old pick up in a day. Plus, there’s hands-on support whenever you need it.
Trained on millions of drawings, Bobyard automatically deducts openings from wall finish areas, cutting manual time by up to 90%. It doesn't replace estimators - it supercharges them, freeing your team to focus on winning more clients and bids.
