The problem

Manual drawing review is slow, expensive and error-prone.

Every trade spends hours combing through architectural drawings, DB schedules and specifications. PlanScanAI replaces the tedium with structured, verifiable output.

Without PlanScanAI

  • Hours spent counting sockets, lights and fixtures manually.
  • Schedules and drawings out of sync — missed items cost you margin.
  • Quoting takes days, losing tenders to faster competitors.
  • Each trade re-reads the same drawings — no shared source of truth.
  • Finding matching products means trawling supplier sites after the fact.

With PlanScanAI

  • Upload a drawing. AI extracts items and quantities in seconds.
  • Guided Scan — tell the AI exactly what to search for. No noise.
  • Structured, exportable results you can drop into a quote.
  • Trade profiles tune the AI to your specialism and preferred kit.
  • Automatic product matching against UK suppliers, ready to order.
How it works

Three steps from drawing to deliverable.

No steep learning curve. No desktop install. Works in your browser on any device.

01

Upload drawings

Drag and drop PDFs, plan sets or individual sheets. PlanScanAI handles multi-page documents and large-format drawings without fuss.

02

AI scans & extracts

Select your trade and what to search for. Our AI performs a guided scan — an exact missile, not carpet bombing — pulling items, quantities and specifications directly from the drawings.

03

Get structured results

Review results with linked drawing references, export to CSV or report format, and optionally get matched products from trusted UK suppliers.

One platform · Every trade

Built for the way you actually work.

PlanScanAI supports 13 construction trades out of the box. Each with trade-specific scanning logic, terminology and UK standards baked in.

From the field

Trades who’ve already switched on the AI.

Real feedback from early adopters across electrical, fire safety and mechanical disciplines.

“I used to spend three hours on a 40-page plan set doing a take-off. PlanScanAI gives me a first draft in under two minutes. I still verify, but I’m quoting the same day.”

Dan Harrow
Electrical Contractor, Manchester

“The guided scan is the killer feature. I tell it exactly what I’m looking for — VAVs, FCUs, duct runs — and it pulls just that. No carpet bombing of irrelevant hits.”

Sam Keating
HVAC Design Engineer, Bristol

“We handle fire door schedules across large NHS estates. What took two consultants a full day now takes one person an afternoon. Game-changer for our margins.”
