CanaveralAI Takeoff for Mechanical Estimators
Fly through takeoff, customize reports, get bids out the door, and
win more work.
Human-centered AI. Always in your control.
We built AI that works alongside you, not instead of you.
Intelligent assistance exactly when you need it, invisible when you don't.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
SymbolSight.
Automatic detection for scheduled HVAC equipmentSymbolSight analyzes your equipment schedules and locates matching units across your mechanical plans. Review predictions in a streamlined workflow—accept or reject with a click for rapid takeoff without sacrificing accuracy.
Diffusers, Grilles, and VAVs come to you. No hunting required.
SheetScan.
Instant sheet identification and scale detectionTransform your mechanical drawings into a searchable plan directory automatically. Canaveral's AI reads page structure to extract sheet numbers, descriptions, and scale—so you can jump straight into duct takeoff.
Skip the setup. Start estimating.
QuickDraw.
One-click duct dimensions and fitting selectionThe drawing becomes your control surface. Hold "Q" to reveal AI-suggested duct sizes and fittings—select with a single click instead of typing dimensions manually.
Stop typing. Start clicking. Those seconds saved multiply into hours across a mechanical project.
AutoTab.
AI-assisted duct run completionBegin a duct run and let computer vision predict where it ends. Hit tab to accept, escape to reject. String multiple predictions together to complete entire HVAC runs in moments.
Full control. Maximum velocity.
AI that earns your trust, one interaction at a time.
Forget scrolling through unreliable AI-generated lists. Canaveral's contextual tools surface exactly when relevant—feeling less like automation and more like a natural extension of your workflow.
Built for how mechanical estimators actually work.
Designed from the ground up for HVAC and mechanical contractors.
Every feature helps you bid faster and win more.
Flexible reporting
Generate PDFs, spreadsheets, or CSVs with customizable headers, notes, and columns. Save templates for one-click exports across your team.
When takeoff wraps, so does the paperwork.
Parts & Assembly library
Build and maintain your duct fittings and equipment database. Include third-party identifiers, pricing data, and labor rates for accurate cost estimation.
Accurate bids from the start.
Smart fittings
Elbows, taps, tees, and transitions are placed automatically during duct takeoff based on geometry and angle changes. Stay in flow, fittings handled.
Plan text search
Locate equipment tags, spec references, or any text across all your mechanical drawings instantly. Catch every detail.
Powerful filtering
Handling change orders? Filter by duct size, system type, or any metadata combination to isolate exactly what you need. Update in bulk with precision.
Custom data fields
Create project-specific data fields for insulation, liner, or custom attributes and reference them in your reports. Your database, your structure.
