M-001 · Agentic AI for TAB firms

Pre-field reports — in 15 minutes

Takeoff Sooner.TAB Faster.Win More.

Do more with the team you have. TabPro’s AI agents read your mechanical set, count every unit, and draft the pre-field workbook — your engineers review and approve, so you take on more projects without adding headcount.

TAB firms like AlphaTab build pre-field workbooks “faster than ever” · without growing the team

Point the agents at your set.

They do the counting; you make the calls. Four steps, no new software to learn.

Upload → Agents count → You review → Export

01

Drop the file, get the bid

One mechanical PDF in — scanned or vector, big sets welcome. The agents take it from there.

TabPro Express mode — drop one mechanical drawing and the agents run the full bid-takeoff pipeline (convert, detect, reconcile) to a downloadable Excel takeoff

Express · One drawing in, a bid-ready takeoff out — no manual gates

02

The agents count everything

Every diffuser, VAV, and fan — found, tagged, and linked back to its drawing page, while your team does nothing.

TabPro reading a dense mechanical floor plan — 1,034 elements detected and boxed, with every count itemized in a side panel showing its ID, type, and confidence score

Detect · 1,034 elements on this sheet — every count itemized with a confidence score

03

You stay in control

Every count lands in a review queue pinned to its drawing. Approve, correct, or draw in what the agents missed — right on the plan. Nothing exits without your sign-off.

TabPro’s review workspace — a detected floor plan with a hand-added equipment annotation, beside a panel showing 98 of 98 counts approved and per-item confidence scores

Review · AI found 80, you added 16 — annotate misses right on the drawing

04

Export and bid

A bid-ready Excel takeoff, in the format your estimates already use.

TabPro’s export step — the reviewed floor plan beside a takeoff sheet itemized by equipment type with editable counts, ready to export to Excel

Export · The takeoff sheet — AHU/RTU 6, D/G 98, VAV w/RHC 40 — edit, then export

M-003 · After you win

Then deliver the job. Nobody re-types a number.

The same agents that won the bid now staff the delivery — drafting every report while your team reviews and signs off.

Census → Pre-field → Actuals → Certified

01

Confirm the unit roster

TabPro reads schedules and plans, then shows its work — every unit tagged with the page it was found on, uncertainty flagged for a human look.

Census · 34 units — 18 confirmed, 4 flagged, evidence chips on every row

02

Pre-field report in 15 minutes

Design values fill themselves from the drawings — manufacturer, model, CFM, RPM, voltage — with a source note on every number.

Pre-field · 24/24 units filled — cited to the fan schedule, page 10

03

Field actuals, straight from Excel

No new field app to learn — your techs fill the same Excel workbook they already carry. Bring it back, and every actual lands against its design value.

TabPro’s post-field view — design CFM beside field-measured actuals with live variance percentages, out-of-tolerance readings flagged in red

Post-field · Design vs actual — −5.6% flagged red, 0.0% passing green

04

Certified report, your letterhead

A certification-ready PDF on your firm’s own template — cover, letter, instruments, tolerances.

TabPro’s certification report preview — a cover page and NEBB certification letter generated on the firm’s own template

Certified · Cover + NEBB letter on your template — this project ran 30 pages

Messy title blocks, rotated sheets, 40-year-old scans — send what you actually have.

M-005 · How TabPro sees · Night shift

This is how TabPro sees your drawing.

Not pixels — a working model of the building. On this one sheet the agents read 1,034 elements: every diffuser, duct run, damper, equipment tag, and room label — each one typed, placed, and still linked to where it came from. That’s the volume work your engineers no longer touch by hand.

Tiling graph · One sheet, 1,034 elements read — every one typed, placed, and linked
FIELD-READY ✓

Every number shows its work.

Each value in a TabPro report carries a citation — “extracted from the fan schedule on page 10, verified on the plan view.” When your name goes on the certification, you can audit every line back to the sheet it came from.

This isn’t a filter or a template. It’s a pipeline of AI agents that extract, cross-check each other, and flag anything uncertain for a human — the way a senior engineer reviews a junior’s takeoff. When TabPro isn’t sure, it says so.

M-006 · The math

Counting a sheet like this by hand takes hours. Watch the video above again — that was seconds.

The agents do that work on every sheet, on every project, at once. So the ceiling on how much your firm can bid and deliver stops being how many engineers you can hire — it becomes how fast you can review. That’s capacity you add without adding payroll.

M-008 · Common questions

Straight answers.

Do the AI agents replace my engineers?

No — they replace the transcription, not the expertise. The agents do the volume work: reading drawings, counting equipment, drafting the workbook and report. Your engineers review, correct, and sign off. You ship more work with the team you have — you don’t shrink it.

What does “agentic” actually mean here?

A pipeline of specialized AI models that extract equipment, cross-check each other, and flag anything uncertain for a human — then draft the pre-field workbook and certification report. Real project work, reviewed and approved by your team. Not a chatbot, not a filter.

How accurate is it?

Every detection carries a confidence score and links back to the exact page it came from. You review the counts in TabPro against the original PDF — confirm, correct, or add. “Auto-verified” means the count is tied to its source page and checked by a person: you confirm the takeoff, you don’t rebuild it.

What drawings can I send?

Standard mechanical PDF sets — scanned or vector, any size. If you can bid from it, TabPro can read it.

Do scanned drawings work?

Yes. Scanned or vector, messy title blocks, rotated sheets, 100+ page sets — TabPro classifies every page first, then reads the ones that matter.

Where do my drawings and reports live?

Every job gets one workspace: the drawing set, any addenda you drop in later, project settings like report standard and variance tolerance — auto-read from the drawing notes — and every workbook and report generated along the way. One place to check the whole pipeline, no juggling file shares.

Is my project data safe?

Yes. Your projects are handled single-tenant, your drawings are never used to train shared models, and they’re deleted on request. See our privacy policy.

What does it cost?

Your first drawing set is free — that’s the takeoff we send you. After that, simple per-project pricing sized to be a fraction of the time it saves. No seats, no annual lock-in.

What happens after we win the job?

The same project keeps going — no re-entry. TabPro confirms the unit roster, fills the pre-field report from the drawings in about 15 minutes, takes your field-measured actuals with live variance, and generates a certification-ready PDF on your firm’s own template.

Do I have to change how I work?

No. TabPro hands you a clean Excel takeoff, so it drops straight into the bid flow you already use.

Is this only for TAB?

The engine that reads drawings doesn’t care which trade signs the report — but the workflows built today are TAB: takeoff, pre-field, post-field, certification. Commissioning and related workflows are on the roadmap. If you run a Cx firm and want in early, send us a set and say so.
