We count the fixtures.
You win the bid.
Upload the drawing set. Count it with AI, by hand — or have a lighting pro do it for you. Check the light levels, quote it, and submit.
Drawing set in. Submittal package out.
LumenCount carries the whole job in one project — from the first page of the set to the quote and the submittal package — with every step editable until you deliver.
Upload and count
Drop in the PDF set. LumenCount classifies the sheets, reads the fixture schedule, and counts every fixture on the floor plans — or you count by hand on the same screen. Every mark stays editable.
Price the package
Your counts flow straight into a quoting workspace — line items seeded from the fixture schedule. Add pricing line by line or import your fixture list from CSV or Excel.
Submittals & O&M
Build the submittal package and O&M manual from the same project — datasheets and warranties pulled from your shared library instead of hunted down one by one.
Export and send
Marked-up plans, a branded Excel count, the quote, and the submittal package — every deliverable a GC expects, generated from one source of truth.
Every job lives as a project — takeoff, quote, and submittals together, so nothing is scattered across downloads and email threads.
Save a takeoff, reopen it later, and save edits as a new version. Addendum drops a week before bid day? V2, without losing V1.
A shared library of manufacturer datasheets and warranties feeds your submittal packages — pulled automatically, not hunted down per job.
Not just how many. How much light.
The fixtures you counted already know their own output — pulled from their IES datasheets. Lay out each room on the plan and LumenCount reads the light back: average maintained footcandles, a point-by-point heat map, and a marked-up photometric plan — without leaving your takeoff or re-keying a thing.
Draw a room, set its ceiling height, and read the average maintained footcandles from the fixtures inside it — the lumen method, worked out for you.
A footcandle heat map across the space, with avg / min / max and uniformity ratios — the numbers a reviewer asks for, computed live as you edit.
Export a marked-up plan with the grid and iso-footcandle contours, a per-room footcandle summary PDF, and an Excel schedule.
AI when you want it. Manual when you don't. Us, when you're slammed.
Let the AI count first
The AI runs the first pass over your floor plans and marks every fixture by type. You review, correct, and approve — minutes instead of hours, with you in control of the final number.
Count it yourself
The same markup tools with no AI in the loop — click to mark, tag by type, measure runs to scale. A fast, purpose-built counting surface for estimators who trust their own eye.
A pro counts it for you
Send the set and pick your pages. A real lighting professional runs the full takeoff by hand and returns marked-up plans and a count you can quote from — within 48 hours.
We'll do it for you.
Bid due and no hours left? Upload the drawing set, pick the pages, and a lighting pro does the takeoff by hand — marked-up plans and a fixture count, delivered to your project, ready to quote.
