Plumbing & Water

AI Plan Scanner for Plumbers

Plumbing take-offs mean counting sanitaryware, tracing hot and cold supplies across multiple floors, and squaring schedules against plan-view detail. PlanScanAI does the reading so you can concentrate on pricing.

How PlanScanAI helps

Every plumbing quote involves a ream of schedules — sanitaryware, valves, pipework materials, insulation specs, drainage gullies, tundishes, calorifiers. PlanScanAI reads across plans, elevations and schedules to give you a unified, quantity-backed item list in seconds.

Point the AI at your drawings, pick ‘Plumbing & Water’ as your trade, and target your scan: WHB count, WC pans, shower types, mains water run lengths. Get the output verified against drawing references — no guesswork, no missed items.
