Built for the trade that has to live with the number.
Subcontractors bid more jobs with smaller teams, and every missed item comes out of their margin. RenderDraw proposes your trade's quantities from the plan set for estimator review, and approved rows hand off to your assemblies and labor units.
- Your trade, your units
- AI takeoff + review
- Addenda by revision
- Proposal-ready
AI-powered, human-approved.

Subcontractor software, answered.
What is the best estimating software for subcontractors?
One that fits your trade's takeoff, uses your labor units and handles addenda quickly. Test on one of your recent bids.
Can I use my own assemblies?
Yes. Approved quantities map to your assemblies, labor units and price lists.
Which trades does RenderDraw support?
RenderDraw's development focus covers identification and review tasks across 20 industries. Confirm your trade on a sample.
Does the AI price the job by itself?
No. AI proposes quantities; your estimator reviews them, lowest confidence first, and only approved rows are priced with your assemblies, price lists and labor units.
Can I try it on my own drawings?
Yes. Request a free sample takeoff on one representative plan set. Your sample files remain private while we assess the request, and there is no obligation to proceed.
