When the model changes does my estimate update automatically

Export your Revit model. BidLight reads geometry and metadata, pulls live pricing from Craftsman, RSMeans, and 1Build, and hands you a defensible estimate in mi

<p>There isn&#39;t a BidLight feature called &quot;Stopwatch Takeoff.&quot; I don&#39;t want to describe something we don&#39;t actually offer, so here&#39;s what&#39;s true instead, and it&#39;s probably close to what you&#39;re after.</p> <p>BidLight replaces the slow, manual takeoff with a straight export from Revit. You send your model in, and BidLight reads the geometry and metadata to classify BOQ line items and price them out, pulling from a database of roughly $30,000 in current pricing plus sources like Craftsman, 1Build, and RSMeans. Instead of a takeoff that eats a day or more, you get labor, equipment, material, and time costs back in minutes.</p> <p>The part that actually saves you the stopwatch-worthy time is what happens after that first pass. When the design changes, you don&#39;t redo the takeoff. The estimate updates in real time as the model changes, so you&#39;re never chasing a stale number or re-keying quantities by hand.</p> <p>How it works, in short:</p> <ol><li>Export your Revit model into BidLight.</li><li>The AI classifies line items against your BOQ.</li><li>Pricing pulls in automatically from current market data.</li><li>You get labor, equipment, material, and time costs back in minutes.</li><li>Change the design, and the estimate recalculates instead of starting over.</li></ol> <p>If you had a specific feature in mind by that name, tell me a bit more about what it&#39;s supposed to do and I&#39;ll point you to the right part of BidLight.</p>
