Stiimo helps estimators go from PDF drawings to quantity takeoff faster. Let AI identify symbols, measure cabling, and generate structured quantities that you can review, adjust, and export for estimating.
As an estimator, you often need to review large volumes of drawing documentation in a short amount of time. Symbols need to be counted, cabling measured, containment systems traced, and quantities compiled in a way that works for estimating.
When documentation is extensive, frequently revised, or delivered late in the process, manual quantity takeoff quickly becomes a bottleneck. At the same time, even small quantity errors can have a major impact on the bid.
AI that handles the heavy lifting before you take it further.
With Stiimo, you can upload electrical drawings as PDFs and get help identifying symbols, measuring cabling, and generating a structured quantity summary.
You get a faster starting point for your estimating process while staying in full control. Results can be reviewed directly on the drawing, adjusted when needed, and exported for further estimating.
For tenders
Generate quantities faster when you need to submit bids on tight deadlines.
For revisions
Get better visibility when drawings change and quantities need to be reviewed again.
For project managers and change orders
Create clearer documentation for revisions, additional work, and project discussions.
For internal review
Check quantities directly on the drawing and reduce the risk of missing critical details.
For estimating export
Export quantities to Excel, CSV, and estimating systems like Bidcon and Wikells.
Automatic symbol counting
Stiimo helps you identify and count symbols such as lighting fixtures, outlets, switches, detectors, and other components.
Cable measurement
Measure cabling directly from the drawing and get lengths compiled with clear traceability.
Containment and routing
Quantify containment systems, cable trays, conduits, and routes that impact materials, labor, and estimating.
Document analysis
Use project documents such as technical specifications and lighting schedules for better visibility and greater context.
Quantity summary
Compile quantities into a structured dataset that can be reviewed, filtered, and exported.
Stiimo is built to support estimators, not replace professional expertise. The AI handles the repetitive work and creates an initial quantity takeoff, but you review, adjust, and approve the quantities before they are used in estimating.
That means less time spent on manual clicking and more time focused on analysis, quality assurance, and building a competitive bid.
On our in-depth page about automated quantity takeoff for electrical drawings, we show how Stiimo helps you go from PDF drawings to structured quantity summaries with the help of AI.
Common questions from electrical contractors
Stiimo helps estimators quantify electrical drawings faster by identifying symbols, measuring cabling, and generating structured quantity takeoff data from PDF drawings.
Yes. Stiimo can be used to generate quantities and build better supporting data for estimating and tenders.
Yes. Stiimo can help you gain better visibility when drawings change and quantities need to be reviewed again.
Yes. The AI handles the heavy lifting, but the user should always review, adjust, and approve the results before they are used.
Yes. Quantities can be exported to tools such as Excel, CSV, and estimating systems like Bidcon and Wikells.
No. Stiimo helps you work faster and more efficiently, but you still review and quality-assure the results before they are used.
Stiimo is built for electrical and installation drawings in PDF format, including lighting, power, data, alarm, fire alarm, and containment drawings.
