Wall panel takeoff for panelized construction.
Panelizers need wall lengths, heights, openings and wall types before they can lay out panels and quote. RenderDraw proposes those from architectural plans and schedules, with every wall linked to its sheet, and can hand reviewed quantities into configured quoting.
Send one plan set. See what the AI extracts and what it flags for review. No obligation.
- Walls by type, height, opening
- Ready for panel layout
- Into quoting and CPQ
What a panelizer needs first.
Wall inventory
Every wall segment by type and height with intersections.
Openings
Rough openings by size and location from schedules and elevations.
Quote handoff
Reviewed quantities into your quoting rules or visual CPQ.
The quantities a drywall estimator actually needs
These are the items RenderDraw proposes from the drawings, each linked to the sheet it came from, for your estimator to accept, correct or reject.
| Item | What is measured or counted | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Partitions | Linear feet by wall type and height | Floor plans, partition types legend |
| Board area | Wall area by layer and board type (Type X, moisture-resistant) | Partition type details |
| Ceilings | ACT and hard-lid ceiling areas by type and height | Reflected ceiling plans |
| Openings | Door and window counts for deductions and framing | Door schedule, plans |
| Specialties | Soffits, bulkheads, shaft walls, blocking | Sections, details |
From plan set to reviewed quantities.
AI-powered, human-approved. Each stage records what ran, what changed and who approved it.
Start with your bid package
Drawings, specs and addenda together: floor plans with partition tags, the partition type legend, reflected ceiling plans, the door schedule and Division 09 spec sections.
AI proposes quantities
Counts, lengths and areas come back with the source sheet and location attached to every row.
Estimator review
Low-confidence items surface first. Your estimator accepts, corrects or rejects each one.
Map to your assemblies
Approved quantities map to your items, assemblies and estimating assumptions.
Price reviewed rows
Labor units, material pricing and supplier quotes apply only to rows that passed review.
Hand off with evidence
Approved quantities move on to pricing and visual CPQ with the evidence trail still attached.

The AI drafts. Your estimator decides.
Speed is easy to promise. Defensible numbers are the job, so RenderDraw keeps the estimator in control of every quantity that gets priced.
- Source on every row. Each quantity keeps its source sheet, location and reviewer decision.
- Lowest confidence first. The review queue shows the drawing tile with the detection highlighted and the extracted value.
- Uncertain items flagged, not hidden. Anything the AI can't confirm goes to the estimator rather than being guessed.
- Nothing priced before approval. Rows move on to pricing only after they are accepted.
Questions estimators ask
What is panelization takeoff?
Quantifying walls, heights and openings from drawings so a panel manufacturer can lay out and price panels.
Does RenderDraw lay out panels?
No. It produces reviewed wall quantities; panel layout stays in your design tools.
Can it connect to quoting?
Reviewed quantities can feed quoting and RenderDraw's visual CPQ.
What should we send?
Architectural plans, wall types, elevations and door/window schedules.
See what the AI reads on your own drawings.
Send one representative drywall plan set. RenderDraw reviews it and follows up with what the AI extracted and what it flagged for review. Your files remain private while the request is assessed, and there is no obligation.
- Upload floor plans with partition tags, the partition type legend, reflected ceiling plans, the door schedule and Division 09 spec sections.
- RenderDraw reviews the set and the scope you want tested.
- We follow up with extracted quantities, flagged items and next steps.
