Bobyard builds AI takeoff and estimating software that turns construction drawings into quantities and bids for trade contractors.
Construction takeoffs are a major bottleneck: contractors spend days manually measuring drawings for a small chance at winning a job, while Bobyard says its trade-specific AI can automate up to 70% of quantity and material takeoff work. The company reports a 65% average reduction in takeoff time and 3–5x more bids per estimator, and its $35M Series A is funding model improvements and expansion beyond landscaping into trades such as electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, and framing.
