The Estimating Solution for HVAC Sheet Metal Contractors

On-Screen View (OSV)

Kiss your digitizer table and bulky paper drawings goodbye! Import your drawings into AutoBid, display it on your screen, and perform touch takeoff with the mouse instead of a digitizer pen. Floating windows let you easily enter commands.

Graphical TakeOff (GTO)

Yes, AutoBid's patented graphical audit trail speeds up takeoff and reduces mistakes by giving you a visual representation of what you've taken off. But the real power of GTO? An audit trail made of connected real-world items, not just a quantity list of unconnected pipe and fittings.

"Time-consuming and stress-inducing mistakes or changes are easily found and fixed."

Box-In Tool

Harness the power of Graphical TakeOff - click and drag in GTO to instantly select a group of connected items to make changes, create assemblies, create alternates, do change orders, and more.
