What is Civils.ai?

Civils.ai is an AI-powered platform designed for construction contractors and civil engineers, specializing in quantity takeoffs and contract checks. It significantly reduces the time spent on takeoffs by up to 90%, allowing users to measure earthworks, drainage, concrete, steel, and MEP directly from PDF drawings. The tool also offers an intelligence layer for checking contracts, specifications, and codes of practice against construction documents. Users can type their measurement scope in plain English, and Civils.ai automatically calculates areas, lengths, volumes, and counts. Results are reviewed by an expert QA team and can be downloaded as Excel and annotated PDFs. It also supports exploring subsurface ground conditions by extracting and visualizing borehole data from geotechnical reports.

FAQs

What types of takeoffs does Civils.ai support?

Civils.ai supports a wide range of civil and construction trades, including earthworks, concrete, steel, and MEP. The software is continuously improving and expanding its capabilities to cover more takeoff types from PDF drawings.

How is a 'takeoff' defined and consumed in Civils.ai?

One takeoff equals one takeoff on one drawing sheet for one trade. For example, measuring floor areas on one sheet is one takeoff. For multi-trade takeoffs, the maximum charge is capped at 5 takeoffs per drawing sheet.

How accurate are the takeoffs provided by Civils.ai?

For modern PDF documents, Civils.ai achieves over 95% accuracy. For older or hand-drawn PDFs, accuracy may vary. All AI-extracted data undergoes a human-in-the-loop review process to ensure output accuracy.

What types of files can I upload to Civils.ai?

Civils.ai currently supports any form of PDF document or drawing. This includes both digitally created PDFs, as well as handwritten and scanned PDF files, making it versatile for various project documents.

How long does it take to receive results from a workflow?

Workflow processing time can vary based on the complexity of the data being extracted. Civils.ai aims to return results within 24 hours. Users are notified via email once the data extraction is completed.
