TRACEBUILD is a complete, modern PDF markup and measurement platform: the redline, annotation, measurement and page-editing toolkit professionals expect in your browser — with the deeper document toolkit (e-signatures, batch processing, password protection) in the TraceBuild Pro Windows app. AI Auto-Takeoff, live sessions, digital signatures, estimating and a private on-device AI estimator are layered on top in TraceBuild Pro (the Windows version). Mark up and take off quantities in your browser with TRACEBUILD Lite, free while in early access.

Everything a modern PDF and takeoff workflow needs, from redlines to real quantities, with automation built in — and a private on-device estimator in TraceBuild Pro.
Calibrate once, then measure length, area, volume, angle and count. Clouds, callouts, stamps, highlights and redaction: the full set, with snap-to-geometry precision.
One-click Detect Spaces & Runs gives you a running head start: it finds rooms, names them from the drawing's own text and traces wall and pipe runs classed by trade — then you review and refine. Quantities roll up live by space and type and export to CSV or Excel. All of it free in Lite.
Run the whole sheet in a single pass: rooms, runs and AI-detected symbol counts land together as a takeoff you review, then price — with budgetary cost ranges and labor hours applied automatically.
When you're ready to price, one click turns a takeoff into a professional basis of estimate: executive summary, scope, assumptions and risk flags, written by a bundled AI model that never touches the internet.
TRACEBUILD bundles a professional-grade AI model that runs entirely on your computer through a local engine. Your priced takeoff becomes a client-ready narrative. No account, no upload, no internet required. The dollar figures stay authoritative; the AI writes the scope, assumptions and review around them.
A full, professional PDF markup, measurement and document toolkit is the foundation of TRACEBUILD, the tools professionals use every day, in a fast, modern interface. Estimating, collaboration and AI are layered on top as added value. Markup, measurement and construction takeoff ship free in Lite; AI takeoff, estimating and collaboration unlock with Pro.
