01

Bobyard can read any drawing

Upload E-series drawings, panel schedules, riser diagrams, symbol legends, and spec books, and Bobyard gets to work.

02

AI auto-extracts the takeoff in minutes

Devices, fixtures, panels, conduit runs, and equipment are detected and grouped by system. Estimators can verify each detection before locking it in.

03

Roll everything into a pre-built estimate

All quantities flow directly into an estimate table with material and labor costs calculated across counts, lengths, equipment, and more.

Double your bids

Estimators cut takeoff time by 50–90%, so they can chase and win the work they used to leave on the table.

Profit margins, not error margins

Custom AI models trained on electrical drawings detect with high accuracy, so you don't have to bake in miscount error margins.

Bigger business, same team

Bobyard doesn't replace estimators, it elevates them. Free from counting they can focus on winning over clients and bids.

FAQ

What is electrical takeoff software?

Electrical takeoff software reads electrical drawings, counts devices, fixtures, panels, and equipment, and measures conduit and wire runs. Bobyard automates the first pass and shows a confidence score for each detection, so estimators can focus their attention.

Can Bobyard read panel schedules and riser diagrams?

Yes. Panel schedule intelligence pulls frame size, circuit count, wire size, and breaker size from schedules. Riser and equipment counting picks up transformers, switchboards, and generators and ties them to feeder routing.

Does Bobyard calculate conduit and wire lengths?

Yes. It suggests homerun routes with conduit recommendations and calculates wire linear feet per circuit, including multi-floor risers, for the estimator to review.

Is Bobyard an electrical estimating system, or a takeoff tool that feeds one?

Both. Bobyard can carry a job from takeoff to estimate to proposal on its own, or hand quantities to the system you already use via CSV, Excel, or PDF export.

What electrical drawings can I upload?

Upload electrical floor plans, E-series drawings, panel schedules, riser diagrams, symbol legends, and spec books. Bobyard counts devices and fixtures from the plans and groups the results for review before pricing.
