Drop your devices and Cable Takeoff measures every home run along the real corridor path, prices the material and labor, generates a customer proposal, and pre-checks the design against TIA/BICSI/NEC — so you hand the GC a complete, de-risked bid instead of a hand-counted guess. Nothing to install.
No credit card required · 14-day free trial
Low-voltage estimating software built by a working estimator — proven on real hospital and multi-tower structured cabling bids. Runs entirely in your browser.
Mark up symbols one by one by hand. Scale a ruler against the drawing and add up footage in your head. Re-count from scratch on every revision and addendum. Rebuild the BOM in a spreadsheet by hand. Every bid burns hours on tedious, error-prone counting and measuring instead of estimating — and one miscount on a hospital or multi-tower job can swing the number that wins or loses the work.
Cable Takeoff turns your drawing set into a live structured cabling takeoff. Set the scale per page, drop your IDFs and devices, and the app auto-measures each cable run along the actual hallway path back to its IDF — so your footage reflects how cable really gets pulled, not a straight line through walls. From there it keeps going: price the material and labor from your distributor quote, generate a branded customer proposal, and run a one-click compliance pre-flight against TIA/BICSI/NEC before the bid goes out. When the design revises, move the drops and re-run everything in seconds — no re-counting from scratch.
Purpose-built for low-voltage and structured cabling estimators — not adapted from a generic measuring tool. It takes you all the way from takeoff to a standards-checked proposal.
Use preset architectural and engineering scales or set scale with two-point manual calibration. Each page calibrates on its own, so a set that mixes 1/8" and 1/4" sheets measures right everywhere.
Place an IDF or MDF, click your outlet and device locations, and the app measures the L-shaped run from each drop back to its IDF and adds your configurable slack automatically.
Trace your hallways once — every drop auto-routes the shortest path back to its IDF for real-building footage, and the corridor pathway sizes your J-hooks by bundle — smaller hooks on light branches, larger ones where the trunk loads up, totaled into your BOM.PRO
Define your own symbols (shape, color, code, cable count, pinned Cat6/Cat6A) and a 5-part assembly per type for connectors, cable, faceplate, and misc. Standard 1D–10D data drops and 0-cable pull-only drops included.
Export grouped by IDF, with per-cable-type tabs, a quantity takeoff by type, and a consolidated purchase list built straight from your assemblies. The BOM is done when the takeoff is done.
Export a real PDF sized to the source sheet with drops, routes, and an auto-filled legend baked in — crisp, consistent symbols you can image-search and count in any PDF markup tool. Every project saves to the cloud and lives on your dashboard.
Import a distributor quote (WESCO, Anixter, and more) into a reusable price book, add install-hours per drop and IDF, and Cable Takeoff rolls material + labor + your markups into a live bid total — and flags any part it couldn't price so nothing slips through.
Turn the estimate into a branded, one-click lump-sum proposal PDF — your letterhead, scope of work, inclusions and exclusions, and the price — ready to hand the GC. Your cost breakdown stays internal.
One click checks the routed job against TIA-568/569, BICSI, and NEC limits — cable lengths, J-hook spacing, conduit and fire-sleeve fill, IDF rack capacity — and prints a Standards Compliance Report you hand the GC. Catch the failed-certification mistake before you bid it, not after.
Marquee one symbol and Cable Takeoff finds the rest across the sheet — including rotated and mirrored copies — so you place a whole drawing's drops in a fraction of the time.
Drop in your floor-plan PDF — single sheet or a full multi-page set — and calibrate the scale on each page.
Set your anchor points, click your device locations, and trace your corridors. The app measures every run as you go.
Price the job from your distributor quote, run the compliance pre-flight, and export the Excel takeoff plus a branded proposal PDF. On a revision, move the drops and re-run it all in seconds.

Founding offer: sign up during early access (through December 18, 2026) and your Solo plan includes every Pro feature — keep them for life while your Solo subscription stays active.
Yes. Load full multi-page PDF sets, navigate page to page, and place IDFs and drops on each sheet. Scale calibrates per page, so a set that mixes 1/8" and 1/4" scales measures correctly on every sheet.
Yes. Cable Takeoff exports a real PDF sized to the source sheet with crisp drop symbols, routes, and a legend baked in, so you can open it in any PDF markup or takeoff tool and run image-search counts. It also exports a full Excel takeoff and BOM, plus a PNG.
Yes. Import a distributor quote (WESCO, Anixter, and more) into a reusable price book, add install-hours per drop and IDF, and Cable Takeoff totals material, labor, and your markups into a bid — then exports a branded, lump-sum customer proposal PDF on your letterhead. It flags any unpriced parts so your total is never quietly low. (Pro — included free for Founding Members during early access.)
A one-click check of your routed takeoff against TIA-568/569, BICSI, and NEC limits — permanent-link lengths, J-hook support spacing, conduit and fire-sleeve fill, IDF rack capacity — that prints a Standards Compliance Report you can hand the GC. It's a pre-bid design aid that catches the costly, certification-failing mistakes before they're in your number. It's not a substitute for a licensed RCDD or PE review. (Pro — included free for Founding Members during early access.)
No. Cable Takeoff runs entirely in your browser. There's nothing to download or install, and it works on the same computer you already use to view drawings.
Yes — 14 days free, no credit card required. Start a project, run a real takeoff, and see the footage and BOM before you decide.
Your projects and uploaded drawings are hosted on Supabase, with authentication handled by Clerk, hosting on Vercel, and payments processed by Stripe — so we never see or store your card details.
Solo is $49.99/mo for the core takeoff (scale, drops, custom types, Excel/PDF export) on up to 5 active projects. Pro is $99.99/mo and adds corridor auto-routing & J-hook sizing, pricing & estimates, customer proposals, Compliance Pre-Flight, auto symbol detection, IDF build-out, and unlimited projects. Team is $199.99/mo for 3 seats with everything in Pro — contact us to get set up. All plans start with the 14-day free trial. During our early-access founding period, Solo subscribers get the full Pro feature set, and members who sign up by December 18, 2026 keep it for life while their Solo subscription stays active.
During our early-access launch, every Solo plan ($49.99/mo) includes the full Pro feature set — corridor routing and J-hook sizing, pricing and estimates, customer proposals, Compliance Pre-Flight, auto symbol detection, IDF build-out, and unlimited projects. Sign up by December 18, 2026 and, as long as you keep your Solo subscription active, you keep all of those features for life. Pro features we release after the early-access window are part of the Pro plan.
Run your next job in the browser: auto-measure the runs along real corridors, price the material and labor, generate the proposal, and pre-check it against TIA/BICSI/NEC. Free for 14 days, no credit card.
