AI takeoff for mechanical estimators.
Pipework, fittings, valves, and plant — measured and counted from the drawings you actually receive. Including the scan of a redline that came back from the consultant.
Mechanical services on every kind of drawing.
Mechanical drawings rarely arrive clean. Hot water, chilled water, and gas services overlap on the same plan; revisions land as PDFs of PDFs; the architect's print isn't always to scale.
ZeroCount reads pipework by size and service, identifies plant from drawing labels, and counts the fittings that drive a real chunk of the cost on a mechanical bid.
Lengths and counts that match your rate sheet.
Pipework by size and service
Hot water flow/return, chilled water, gas. Lengths broken down by diameter, by service, ready to price.
Valves and fittings
Gate valves, ball valves, NRVs, strainers, expansion vessels — counted by symbol type.
Plant equipment
Boilers, calorifiers, pumps, AHUs. Tagged from drawing labels rather than guessed from symbol shape.
Branches and connections
Tee-offs, isolation points, drains. Counted with their branch sizes for accurate pricing.
Quick answers.
- Do you handle scanned PDFs and photographed plans?
- Yes. Vector PDFs, scanned PDFs, and photos of plans on a desk all run through the same engine. Most of the value is in the messier formats — a clean CAD-export PDF is the easy case.
- How does pricing work?
- £55 per licence per month. No tiers, no enterprise upsell. Multi-licence rates available from five seats — bring the team size to the demo call.
- Can I push counts into my estimating system?
- Counts push directly into Ensign estimating with 300,000+ live UK prices and labour times. Excel export is also supported if you price elsewhere.
