Why Contractors Switch

Cut the takeoff time.
Not the accuracy.

Fast
Upload your plans and get a full takeoff in under 10 minutes. No tracing, no clicking, no templates to set up.
Accurate
Accounts for door/window openings, king & jack studs, cripples, corners, and blocking. Add a waste factor you trust.
Safe
Your plans and project data are encrypted at rest and in transit. We never share your drawings, dimensions, or pricing.
Affordable
A fraction of the cost of a full-time estimator. No annual contracts, no per-seat gotchas. Pays for itself on the first job.
How It Works

Three steps. No training required.

Upload a plan, approve the scope, get the takeoff with live prices.

01

Upload your plan, point to the room

Drop in your CAD PDF or scanned sheet and tell Dimension which room. It reads vector geometry when it’s there and falls back to vision for raster scans.

02

Review and approve

Dimension shows you exactly what it found, marked up on a copy of your plan. Eyeball it, fix anything that’s off, and approve.

Found 6 walls in bedroom 5.
4 exterior, 2 closet.
