About PlanSwift
What is PlanSwift?
PlanSwift is a takeoff and estimating software built for construction professionals. It combines classic click-and-drop measuring tools with Takeoff Boost, an integrated suite of AI features that automate repetitive tasks like measuring, counting, scaling, and organizing plans. Instead of spending hours on manual takeoffs, you can get a first pass in seconds.
Problem it solves
Manual takeoff is slow, error-prone, and eats up time that estimators could spend on higher-value work. PlanSwift eliminates the busywork: AI presets handle areas, lengths, and counts automatically; one click finds every instance of a symbol across your plans; and scale is set across an entire plan set in a single action. This lets you move from drawings to estimates faster and bid more jobs.
Who is it for?
PlanSwift is designed for general contractors, concrete, drywall, electrical, flooring, framing, HVAC, landscape, plumbing, and painting trades. It's a good fit if you're a small to mid-sized construction firm that needs accurate takeoffs without a steep learning curve. If you're looking for a full ERP with advanced project management, this isn't it — PlanSwift focuses on takeoff and estimating.
