Tools and notes from building this

Written for estimators and yard managers. No gated PDFs, no “download our whitepaper” forms.

Put a number on the estimator hours behind each framing bid, and compare it with $0.10 a square foot. Every figure shows its arithmetic.

The five stages, what happens in each, and where a human decides. Written so you can judge whether the process is sound before you trust the output.

What happens when it's wrong? Can you see how a quantity was derived? What stops a line binding to the wrong product? Our answers, in detail.

Your catalog and margins are the most sensitive thing you'll give a vendor. How the data is isolated, who can reach it, and what we never do with it.

More guides are being written as we go. If there's something you want covered, tell us.

Try it on a job you know

Bring us a plan you've already bid.

We'll run it through Talli in the demo and compare the takeoff against the one your estimator already knows the answer to.
