<p>Yes, you can stop losing weekends to manual takeoffs. BidLight turns your Revit model into a defensible cost estimate in minutes, and it updates in real time when you move a wall. One contractor saved 680 hours on a single recreation center—work that used to need 3-4 estimators for two weeks.</p> <p>Here&#39;s how it works:<br/>1. Export your Revit model into BidLight.<br/>2. Two AI models read the geometry and metadata to classify line items with 86% accuracy.<br/>3. BidLight pulls current pricing from a database with roughly $30,000 in data, plus Craftsman, 1Build, and RSMeans.<br/>4. You get labor, equipment, material, and time costs—in minutes, not weeks.<br/>5. Change the design? The estimate updates automatically.</p> <p>That means you hand over numbers you can defend, win more work, and turn early estimates into a service you can bill for. Your weekends are yours again.</p>
