From your drawings
to your takeoff.

A workflow for reading, checking and preparing. Each step keeps the connection to the project documents.

01

Define the project.

Bring together drawings, specifications and project descriptions. Apertal supports document sets of up to 300 pages; you define which openings belong in the takeoff.

02

Read with AI assistance.

Work as you would with an assistant by your side: provide the documents and explain what you need. AI supports the reading work, while a simple interface keeps details and sources easy to review.

03

Review. Then revise with your client.

Check the details, then adjust a colour, dimension or technical requirement as the discussion evolves. Client choices remain distinct from information read in the documents.

04

Prepare a reference version.

Bring reviewed openings, qualifications and takeoff notes together. The report and frozen data retain the context of that version.

An unresolved detail
belongs in the record.

If an opening is present but a detail is missing, it should not disappear from the takeoff. The qualification explains what still needs confirmation and retains the relevant source.
