Sparkel 2.0 is live.
AI that understands your construction drawings — and turns them into takeoff quantities you can trust.

Construction takeoff still starts with messy PDFs, uneven BIM, and a new revision every week. Tools either force you to click forever, or they break when the model isn’t perfect. Sparkel 2.0 is built for the drawings you actually get — and for the way teams (and agents) will take off going forward.

The idea in one line

Read construction drawings with AI. Land quantities in a live table. Keep them current when the drawings change.

Start free on PDF. Unlock full estimation on Standard. Add BIM on Pro.

What’s new in Sparkel 2.0

Autoshapes — AI that finds the quantities

Point Sparkel at a floor plan or sheet. Autoshapes detect rooms, symbols, and zones, then resolve into live takeoff quantities. Automation first. Manual shapes when you need to fix an edge case.

Works on imperfect inputs — messy PDFs and poor-quality BIM alike.

PDF and BIM in one place

Most specialty work still starts from sheets. Models are often incomplete or structured the wrong way for your bid. Sparkel doesn’t make you choose: start on PDF, expand to IFC/Revit when you’re ready (Pro) — same workspace, same tables.

Revisions without redoing the takeoff

Projects aren’t static. Sparkel is built so a new drawing set doesn’t mean starting from scratch. Quantities stay live, with history, comparisons, and trends — so you can see what changed instead of re-tracing everything by hand.

(Project history available on Pro.)

Takeoff your way — tables that match your cost codes

Quantities live in structured tables and reports you can shape to your breakdowns — not a fixed WBS someone else invented. Export for the tender, or keep working in Sparkel.

Copilot and manual tools when you need control

Use Copilot to work in plain language when clicking is slower. Use Shapes when AI misses something — point, line, polygon — so the takeoff stays accurate without leaving the system.

Built for people and agents

The same takeoff workflow runs in the app or through an agent. Your team uses the UI. Agents connect via MCP (Model Context Protocol) at mcp.sparkel.ai — upload, Autoshape, resolve quantities, export.

Setup guide: sparkel.ai/mcp
For agents: sparkel.ai/llms.txt

Who Sparkel 2.0 is for

  • Specialty contractors and subs bidding from PDFs every week

  • GCs and quantity surveyors who need trusted quantities across messy models and revisions

  • Teams adopting AI agents who want takeoff in a real system — not chat on a PDF

If you consume drawings (not design them), Sparkel is built for you.

How pricing works (simple)

Plans are per company, not per user. Unlimited users and projects. Everyone shares one credit pool — credits meter AI-heavy work (like Autoshapes), not seats.

Full detail: Pricing

What to try first

  1. Create a free account and upload a floor-plan PDF

  2. Run an Autoshape (rooms or symbols)

  3. Open the quantities in a table and export

  4. When you’re ready — invite the team (Standard) or add BIM (Pro)

  5. Optional — connect MCP and run the same job from your agent

Optional CMS “FAQ” block (if your template supports it)

Is Sparkel only for PDFs?
No. Start free on PDF; Pro adds BIM (IFC & Revit). Same takeoff system.

Do I need perfect models?
No. Sparkel is built for messy drawings and uneven BIM.

Is this just ChatGPT on a drawing?
No. Sparkel is a takeoff system — Autoshapes, tables, history, export — with MCP when you want agents in the loop.

Is Autoshape an add-on?
No. Autoshapes are part of Sparkel 2.0 and use credits for AI work.
