AI-Powered Takeoff and Estimating Tools for Firestopping Contractors
Are your firestopping bids disappearing in the smoke of plan changes?
Estimating for firestopping projects comes with unique challenges. Our AI-powered digital tools help you streamline your workflow, reduce manual work, and bid faster with confidence.
Products for Every Step of Your Workflow
Firestopping estimates depend on counting the right penetrations, measuring joints, and using approved systems from the plans. Our digital tools help you measure faster, stay organized, and build accurate, code-ready bids without wasting time on manual counts.
On-Screen Takeoff®
- Run AI-powered takeoffs that return area, linear, and count quantities in seconds, giving you a head start on complex floors packed with sleeves and joints.
- Calculate linear feet for top-of-wall sealants and size penetrations for air ducts, conduit, and cable directly from your digital plans.
- Use overlays to view two plans at the same time so penetrations stay coordinated between architectural and mechanical drawings
Quick Bid®
- Assemble firestopping price estimates quickly, then review and revise them with current material and labor pricing as specs change.
- Calculate every detail for material and labor you need to estimate and bid, including sealants, devices, sleeves, and installation crews.
- Manage burden and add overhead and profit markups, and use eQuote to pull in updated supplier pricing for certified systems.
Digital Production Control®
- Bring together data from On-Screen Takeoff and Quick Bid for real-time analysis of your firestopping jobs, from takeoff to bid to build.
- Track crew hours, labor production, and labor usage so you can see how installation is performing against your estimate on each floor or area.
- Maintain a detailed permanent record of completion stages that clarifies decisions, approvals, and scope changes to help protect profits.
How Firestopping Contractors Are Using AI-Powered Takeoffs to Move Faster on Critical Details
Takeoff Boost™ has unique tools designed for firestopping contractors, which cuts takeoff time by up to 95%. See how AI-powered tools can eliminate time-consuming tasks by automating measurements, so firestopping professionals can focus on pricing, strategy, and winning more bids.
Net Areas
Automatically segments each room and calculates net area along the inside edge of exterior and interior walls.
Footprint Areas
Detects and measures building footprint along the outside edge of exterior walls.
Ceiling Areas
Finds ceiling areas and splits them into gypsum board (GWB) and acoustical ceiling tile (ACT) or by ceiling type when specified.
Wall Linear Footage
Calculates total wall linear footage for standard walls on architectural floorplans.
Walls by Type
Breaks wall linears out by partition type when those types are labeled on the plan (e.g., different stud/gypsum assemblies).
Wall Surface Area
Generates painting linears for both sides of interior walls, giving painters a fast baseline for surface area quantities.
Existing Wall Detection
Identifies existing walls so you can exclude them from new work and avoid over-counting when bidding remodels, build-outs, or partial renovations.
Windows and Window Types
Finds windows and can classify them by window type based on plan tags and symbols.
Doors and Double Doors
Detects and counts doors and double doors, including location on the plan.
Plumbing and Building Fixtures
Counts toilets, sinks, bathtubs, and other fixtures so trade contractors can skip manual symbol counting.
Right-Click Reassignment
Quickly reassign results to your own Conditions with a right click, so quantities flow into the naming, phasing, and assemblies you already use. Learn more.
Delete Results
Delete unneeded takeoff results without losing the Conditions themselves, keeping your structure clean while you refine results. Learn more.
Edit & Move Conditions
Rename, recolor, move, and group Conditions so results fit your naming and organization standards. Learn more.

Frequently Asked Questions
Firestopping estimating software helps contractors measure penetrations, linear joints, and related materials from digital plans and then build complete bids. With tools like On-Screen Takeoff and Quick Bid, you can customize counts and components for certified firestopping systems and adjust pricing as designs evolve.
On-Screen Takeoff lets you calculate linear feet for top-of-wall sealants and measure penetrations for ducts, conduit, and cable, while overlays help you confirm that penetrations align across architectural and mechanical plans.
You can also view change orders on color-coded plans from the office or field, so your firestopping scope always reflects the current drawings.
On-Screen Takeoff captures your firestopping quantities and sends them directly into Quick Bid, where you assemble priced estimates, apply your material database, and handle last-minute revisions automatically. No re-entering numbers, no version confusion.
Digital Production Control integrates data from On-Screen Takeoff and Quick Bid so you can analyze crew hours, labor production, and total labor usage as work progresses.
It gives you a permanent record of completion stages and scope changes, which helps protect your schedule, budget, and margins on firestopping packages.
Takeoff Boost uses AI to deliver a fast first pass of area, linear, and count quantities inside On-Screen Takeoff, which you can then refine for your firestopping scope.
This head start reduces the time you spend on repetitive measurements, so you can invest more time validating details like UL systems, penetrations, and change impacts before bid day.
