CyanBuild Features
Everything you need to bid — AI takeoff, estimating, and reporting in one browser-based platform. No install, no manual counting.
PDF Takeoff
Upload a blueprint PDF and the AI rasterizes the page, locates the drawing area, and detects every element with bounding boxes and confidence scores.
- Door, window, wall, column, and fixture detection
- Bounding-box visual proof on every count
- Confidence scores per detection
- Room detection and segmentation
AI Estimator
Turn a drawing or a photo into a complete bill of quantities in seconds — line items priced from a real cost database, not guesswork.
- Full BOQ generated from the takeoff
- AI-powered cost estimation per line item
- Photo-based fixture counting
- Editable before you export
BOQ Editor
Review, adjust, and organize line items in a spreadsheet-style editor. Every quantity traces back to a box on the drawing.
- Spreadsheet-style line item editing
- Traceable to drawing evidence
- Grouping and categorization

Assemblies

Frequently asked questions
- Is it really AI?
- Yes. Our AI engine detects objects on construction drawings and returns bounding boxes with confidence scores — no manual training required.
- How accurate is it?
- Our AI detects doors, windows, walls, columns, and fixtures with confidence scores shown on each box. You review and adjust in the BOQ editor before exporting, so you stay in control.
- What file types can I upload?
- PDF blueprints out of the box. PNG/JPG photos work too — the AI counts fixtures from a photo.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. Plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from the billing page whenever you need.
- Do I need to install anything?
- No. CyanBuild runs in the browser — upload a drawing and get a takeoff. Nothing to install or maintain.
