01
Electrical bids depend on quantities
A lighting count is not a detail. It moves the number that wins or loses the job, and it carries through procurement and labour.
About
Estimators deserve better than counting by hand.
LumenTakeoff is an electrical takeoff system built for the part of the job that is pure repetition — and built to stay out of the part that requires judgment.
What we believe
02
Repeated manual counting consumes skilled time
The same symbol, two hundred times, across a plan set. That work has to be done, but it does not need a person to do it.
03
Modern PDFs already contain structure
Drawings issued from CAD carry real geometry. A takeoff tool should read that structure rather than squint at a picture of it.
04
Automation should expose uncertainty
When the drawing does not answer a question, the honest result is a visible gap — not a plausible-looking guess.
Computers should handle the repetition. Estimators should keep the judgment.
