What we do

From drawing set to bid.

Count your takeoff your way, then turn it into a branded quote and submittal package — all in one app. Stop after the count, or carry it all the way to the bid.

Step 1 · count it

Take it off

Upload a drawing set, count the fixtures, review and mark up every plan, then export a branded Excel and a marked-up PDF — count by floor plus the full fixture schedule.

Reviewed counts — exported clean.
Step 2 Paid plan

Quote & submit it

Turn any takeoff into a branded quote — line items, pricing, your logo and your customer's. Then generate matching submittal and O&M packages: a cover, an indexed table of contents, and every datasheet merged into one PDF.

Quotes, submittals & O&M — generated in the app.

Quoting and submittals are included on every paid plan. See plans and pricing or get started free.

How it works

From drawing set to takeoff, in four steps.

Upload your PDF and walk the pipeline. Each stage opens as the last completes — and you can revisit any of them.

01

Read the schedule

LumenCount finds and extracts the luminaire schedule — types, descriptions, mounting, flags — straight from the sheet.

02

Head-start the count

Pick the pages to count and let the AI take a first pass across each floor plan, placing fixtures for you to check.

03

Review & mark up

Zoom, add, move, delete, change types, and measure runs. The count is never final until you say so.

04

Export the takeoff

Download a branded Excel — count by floor plus fixture schedule — and a marked-up PDF of every reviewed plan.

Your guide inside

Meet the Light Dude

First time running an AI takeoff? You're not on your own. Once you're in the app, the Light Dude rides along on every screen — a built-in helper that knows which step you're on and walks you through it, from boxing the schedule to the final export. Not sure what to click next? Just ask him.

Get started free

AI when you want it. Manual when you don't.

The AI is optional. It only ever takes a first pass — you make the final call, every time.

AI HEAD START

Let it do the first pass

The AI scans each plan in tiles and proposes a count. You review every fixture, fix what's wrong, and add what it missed. It saves the tedious first pass — it doesn't make the final call.

MANUAL MODE

Or take it off by hand

Don't want AI on a job? Skip the count and place every fixture yourself, right on the plan. Same markup tools, same branded export — a fast manual takeoff with no AI in the loop.
