Emerald Takeoff — Estimating, quoting and job control for plumbing contractors

The apps

Everything an estimator, a project manager and a crew actually use

Pick an app to see what it does. They share one client list, one set of company details and one job record — so nothing is typed twice.

Take Off — measure the drawing, count every fixture

Load a PDF or photo of the plans, set the scale once and measure pipe runs with automatic fittings, drops, trenching and core holes. Fixtures are counted with a click — or detected from the drawing’s tags.

Pipe runs show their size on the drawing, with a colour legend on exported PDFs
Commercial or residential jobs — floors, units and garden suites become the quote automatically
Price per fixture or one flat rate, with exceptions for single items
Optional AI scan finds fixture tags on the plan for you

Questions

Good to know

Who is Emerald Takeoff for?

Plumbing contractors — from a two-person shop to a multi-crew business — who estimate from drawings, quote jobs and want costs, fixtures and materials tied to each project.

Is our company’s data private from other companies?

Yes. Every company’s quotes, drawings, clients and records are stored in their own private space and are only reachable by people signed in to that company. Your team’s browsers also keep each company’s saved settings separate.

Do we need to use all seven apps?

No. Companies are opened for the apps they need — many start with Take Off and Quotes. You can add apps later, and decide per person who can open what.

How do the apps share information?

Through the job. Start a project and its take-off exists; finish the take-off and the quote opens pre-filled; counted fixtures appear in the fixture tracker; won jobs offer to start costing; materials taken on a job post to its expenses.

What is the AI part?

Optional. When switched on for your company, AI can read a drawing sheet and suggest fixture tags to count, and look up fixture prices. You always review and confirm — nothing is added silently.

Does it work on a tablet or phone?

Yes. The apps are built for touch — Take Off works with finger or Apple Pencil, and inventory has a big-button crew mode for the truck.

What will it cost?

Subscriptions are on the way. Approved companies get early access during onboarding, and you’ll hear about plans before anything is billed.

From drawing to final invoice — in one connected suite.
