Vector takeoff workspace showing measured quantities against a PDF drawing

Scale once, measure anywhere on the page

Set the drawing's scale a single time, then measure lengths, areas and counts directly against the PDF - no re-scaling per sheet, no separate ruler tool.

Markups become totals

Every measurement rolls up into clear totals you can export, so the takeoff you do on-screen is the same one that ends up in your estimate.

One account across Metre2

Sign in with the same Metre2 account used across the portfolio - no separate password to manage, and feedback goes straight to the team from inside the app.

Takeoff, in practice

A closer look at estimating and takeoff work happening straight against the drawing.
