AI Plan Scanning & Quantity Takeoff
Upload architectural, structural, and services drawings. AI extracts quantities in m², m³, linear metres, and unit counts — referenced to drawing numbers.
Your takeoff, costing & materials list — back in under 24 hours.
Upload your building plans. APEX BOS delivers your Quantity Takeoff, Project Costing, Materials List, H&S document, and Project Plan — built for NZ construction, ready for your review.
Founding member pricing — $79/month +GST. 10 jobs per month. 24-hour turnaround. Lock in this rate as an early customer — it rises for new members as we grow.
AI-generated. Built for NZ construction.
From plan scanning to cost estimation, materials lists to project plans — the documents a quantity surveyor produces, generated by AI as a first pass for you to verify. Structured for NZ construction.
Upload architectural, structural, and services drawings. AI extracts quantities in m², m³, linear metres, and unit counts — referenced to drawing numbers.
Automatically generate a structured schedule of quantities organised by NZ trade divisions — from preliminaries through to external works.
Indicative cost estimate built on NZ market rates — with trade summaries, elemental breakdown, assumptions, provisional sums, and contingency rationale. A costed first pass for you to verify.
NZ market-aware cost intelligence reflecting regional variations, Auckland premiums, compliance costs, and realistic contingency logic.
Merchant-quotable materials lists with canonical NZ product specifications — treatment classes (H1.2, H3.2, H5), MSG8 grades, Lumberlok and Pryda hardware. Ready to send to your timber merchant.
A staged construction sequence with dependencies, indicative durations, and critical-path items — the honest programme structure your build follows, ready for you to apply your own crew pace and start dates.
Site-specific safety plans, hazard registers, SWMS, and duty holder mapping — aligned with the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 and WorkSafe NZ guidance.
Every output flows from a canonical Quantity Takeoff — Costing and Materials List inherit the same quantities. No contradictions between documents. The numbers in your materials list match the numbers in your cost plan.
Built around how New Zealand residential construction actually works — local timber treatments, local products and hardware, local building practice and measurement. Not a generic international tool with an NZ label.
No waiting weeks. No back-and-forth. Upload your plans and get structured, professional outputs.
Upload architectural, structural, civil, or services drawings in PDF format. We classify every document automatically.
Quantities are extracted by trade, structured to NZ construction practice, and cross-checked for scope gaps and inconsistencies.
Receive your quantity takeoff, cost estimate, materials list, H&S document, and project plan — ready for use.
Not a generic international tool with an NZ label. Every output is built around how New Zealand residential construction actually works — local products, local treatments, local building practice.
Timber treatments, hardware, cladding and framing specified the way NZ merchants stock and quote them
Measurement, sequencing and documentation structured around New Zealand residential building methods
Materials lists a Kiwi builder can send straight to their merchant
Cost estimates built on New Zealand market rates, not converted from overseas figures
Whether you're a builder pricing a job, a developer assessing feasibility, or a QS preparing tender documentation.
Upload plans, get a schedule of quantities by trade, and build your estimate on measured data — not guesswork. Works for NZ residential through to commercial builds.
Use APEXBOS as your first-pass quantity extraction tool. Review, refine, and apply your professional rates to AI-generated takeoff line items.
Get early-stage cost plans from concept drawings to assess project feasibility. Identify cost drivers and risk exposure before committing to design development.
Structured trade breakdowns, materials lists, project plans, and H&S documentation — integrated project documentation from uploaded plans.
APEXBOS is an AI-powered construction platform built specifically for the New Zealand building industry. It allows builders, contractors, quantity surveyors, developers, and project managers to upload their building plans and receive professionally structured quantity takeoffs, cost estimates, materials lists, health and safety documents, and project plans.
Unlike generic international tools, APEXBOS is built specifically around New Zealand residential construction — the local products, timber treatments, hardware, building methods, and market rates that Kiwi builders and merchants actually use. Every output is structured to reflect how NZ construction really works, so the numbers make sense to your suppliers and sub-trades.
The platform classifies uploaded documents — architectural drawings, structural drawings, civil drawings, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services — and extracts measurable quantities organised by NZ trade divisions. These include preliminaries, earthworks, concrete, structural steel, framing, roofing, cladding, windows and joinery, linings, waterproofing, insulation, painting, floor finishes, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, fire protection, and external works.
APEXBOS serves the Auckland construction market and all New Zealand regions, accounting for regional cost variations, NZ supply chain constraints, seismic design requirements, wind zone classifications, and building consent processes. It is the construction industry tool designed to help New Zealand professionals scan their plans, generate quantities, and build smarter.
APEXBOS is an AI-powered first-pass tool. Every output — quantity takeoffs, cost estimates, materials lists, H&S documents, and project plans — is generated by artificial intelligence and is intended as a starting point for qualified professional review, not a substitute for it.
Every APEXBOS output must be independently checked, reviewed, and verified by a qualified peer, supervisor, or registered professional — a Licensed Building Practitioner, Chartered Quantity Surveyor, registered engineer, or qualified Health & Safety practitioner — before being relied upon for pricing, contract submission, consent application, construction, or any commercial or safety-critical decision.
Always conduct your own deep research and verification. AI outputs may contain errors, omissions, or misinterpretations of drawings, scope, or NZ standards. Treat every output as a draft for review.
APEXBOS, its operators, and its directors accept no liability for any direct, indirect, consequential, or commercial loss arising from the use of, or reliance on, the platform's outputs. Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of these terms.
Upload your plans. Five documents come back — Quantity Takeoff, Project Costing, Materials List, Health & Safety, Project Plan — built for NZ construction, in 24 hours. No per-document fees.
