<p>The cost is your senior estimator&#39;s quarter, more or less. 680 hours of reconciling quantities across 11 model versions is time your best people spent rebuilding a week that already existed somewhere. At loaded rates that runs well past what BidLight costs for the year.</p> <p>We pull the change out in 15 minutes because there is only one record to pull from. It lives inside Revit and Navisworks, so your team publishes straight from the model and from the federated model. Every export is versioned and diffed element by element. When something moves, you see what moved, when, and under which version. Nobody reconstructs Friday from Teams, email and 47 Bluebeam markups.</p> <p>The numbers follow the same record. Labor, equipment, material and time costs land in minutes and update in real time as the design changes. Two AI models read geometry and metadata to classify BOQ line items at 86% accuracy, priced against a roughly $30,000 database plus Craftsman, 1Build and RSMeans. Plans run $260 per licence per year for Basics up to $590 for Max, with Enterprise priced custom.</p> <p>One unresolved clash sitting a week is $15K to $50K in idle field labor. Fix the record first. The takeoff stops being the problem.</p>
