The trades deserve better technology

Construction productivity has been flat for 50 years, and takeoffs are one of the biggest bottlenecks. Days of manual measuring for a 10% shot at the job. Contractors can't hire their way out of it, nor rely on legacy tools that haven't advanced in decades. Bobyard is real AI, trained for each trade. Days of work become minutes, so contractors compete on craft, not capacity.

AI custom-built for the trades

Bobyard's AI lab of PhD researchers and computer vision engineers build custom models for every trade we serve, trained on real plans and tuned to how each trade measures and bids. That's how Bobyard reads a set of drawings the way a seasoned estimator does, and why we're the leading AI infrastructure for construction.

FAQ

Bobyard is AI takeoff and estimating software built for construction trades. It reads plan sets, measures scope, and helps estimators move from drawings to bids faster.

Book a demo with our team. We will walk through your trade, your plans, and a sample takeoff so you can see how Bobyard fits your estimating workflow.

Bobyard combines trade-specific AI models with takeoff workflows built for estimators, so teams can automate repetitive measuring while keeping control over the final bid.

Bobyard is built by a San Francisco team focused on bringing AI infrastructure to construction estimating and the trades.

Most teams use Bobyard to turn takeoff work that used to take days into minutes, especially on repetitive measurements across large plan sets.

No. Bobyard supports multiple construction trades, including landscaping, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, finishes, and floor plan takeoffs.
