<p>Automatic BOQ Classification works right where you&#39;re already modeling — inside Revit. Export your model, and BidLight takes it from there.</p> <p><strong>How it runs:</strong></p> <ol><li><strong>Export your Revit model.</strong> No separate takeoff software, no re-drawing — BidLight reads the model you already built.</li><li><strong>Two AI models read the geometry and metadata.</strong> One focuses on the shape and dimensions of each element, the other on the object&#39;s metadata and parameters, cross-checking each other as they work.</li><li><strong>Line items get classified into your BOQ.</strong> Walls, doors, mechanical runs, whatever&#39;s in the model, sorted into the categories your estimate needs — at 86% classification accuracy.</li><li><strong>Pricing gets attached automatically.</strong> Each classified item pulls current cost data from BidLight&#39;s roughly $30,000-item pricing database, backed by Craftsman, 1Build, and RSMeans.</li><li><strong>Labor, equipment, material, and time costs populate in minutes</strong>, not the hours a manual takeoff would take.</li><li><strong>Change the design, and the BOQ updates in real time.</strong> No re-running a takeoff from scratch every time a wall moves.</li></ol> <p>The upside isn&#39;t just speed. Because classification is tied directly to model geometry and metadata, your BOQ stays traceable back to the actual design — so when a client or GC pushes back on a number, you can show exactly where it came from instead of defending a spreadsheet.</p>
