Focused tools for estimators, quantity surveyors and pre-construction teams: build BOQs, measure PDF drawings, review IFC models, compare quotes and manage project information.
What's new
Our apps
Purpose-built construction software for estimating, BIM takeoff, IFC model review, PDF measurement and project information. Use one app or build a workflow across the suite.
Choose a category to narrow the suite to the tools most relevant to your workflow.
BIM & Takeoff
Browser-based PDF takeoff for measured drawings. Set scale once, measure areas, lengths and counts, then export grouped quantities.
BIM & Takeoff
Browser-based IFC model review and BIM takeoff. Inspect data, extract quantities, build traceable BOQs, compare revisions and capture issues.
Estimating
Measure from drawings and capture dimensions directly into BOQ items. Quantities flow without manual re-entry.
PDF & Files
Drop a PDF and ask anything about it. AI-powered, private, and runs entirely in your browser — no uploads, no servers.
Productivity
A visual thinking tool for gathering, connecting, and structuring ideas across projects, boards, and canvases.

Choose based on the source information and the way your team works.
Find the right tool for estimating, quantity takeoff, BIM review and PDF workflows.
Use Vector for browser-based PDF takeoff with calibrated measurements, classification and export. Choose Takeoff Studio when your team needs a Windows desktop, offline-first PDF workflow.
Forma is the browser-based IFC model review workspace for inspecting properties, extracting quantities, linking IFC elements to BOQ rows, comparing revisions and capturing BCF issues. BIM Explorer is the Windows desktop alternative.
Yes. BOQ supports measurement and BOQ item capture, while Forma creates persistent commercial rows from IFC model quantities. Vector can export grouped quantities from measured PDF drawings for downstream estimating workflows.
Metre2 offers both. Vector and Forma are browser-based web apps. Other tools, including Takeoff Studio, BIM Explorer and BOQ, are available for Windows through the Microsoft Store.
Every app is designed for estimators, planners, and pre-construction teams — no irrelevant features.
Use one app or the full suite. Each tool works independently and scales as your projects grow.
No complex setup. Install from Microsoft Store or open in your browser and start working immediately.
Your data stays under your control, with local-first desktop apps and secure account-based web apps.
Choose the lightest tool that gets the job done, then pass clear information into the next stage of your project.
PDF takeoff
Open a drawing in Vector or Takeoff Studio, capture lengths, areas and counts, then export grouped quantities for review or estimating.
BIM review
Use Forma or BIM Explorer to inspect model data, extract quantities and retain the link between BOQ rows and their source elements.
Estimating
Build bills, compare quotations and manage rates with focused estimating tools instead of stitching together disconnected spreadsheets.
