Pipe Takeoff Software
Pipe takeoff software built for mechanical estimators.
Take off hydronic, steam, refrigerant, and process piping faster than ever. Canaveral's AI reads pipe sizes from the plans, tracks fittings automatically, and produces accurate material lists so you can focus on winning work.

Complex piping systems
Mechanical rooms, risers, and distribution loops mean hundreds of pipe segments with varying sizes, materials, and connection types. Tracking it all manually is a recipe for errors.

AI-assisted pipe sizing
QuickDraw reads pipe dimensions directly from the plans. Hold Q to see AI-suggested sizes and assign them with a click. No more squinting at drawings and manually entering every pipe size.

Fitting and valve counts
Elbows, tees, couplings, unions, valves, and flanges multiply quickly across a piping system. Missing even a few fittings per floor compounds into significant cost gaps.

Automatic fitting detection
As you trace pipe runs, fittings are inserted automatically based on geometry changes. Elbows at direction changes, tees at branch connections, reducers at size transitions.

Hangers, couplings, and supports fall through the cracks
Takeoff tools draw pipe runs without carrying hanger types, coupling methods, or insulation requirements. Estimators end up in Excel cross-referencing clevis hangers, couplings, and support spacing against spec tables.

Every run carries its full construction profile
Every pipe run carries its full construction profile: hanger type and spacing, coupling method, insulation thickness, and support requirements. Clevis hangers, couplings, and hardware resolve automatically, ready for instant reporting.

Tight turnaround times
Bid invitations demand fast, accurate estimates. When you’re competing for multiple projects simultaneously, speed without sacrificing accuracy is the difference between winning and losing.

Flexible material reporting
Generate pipe material lists formatted for your preferred vendors or shop. Export to Excel, PDF, or CSV with custom columns, pricing, and labor rates included.
And much, much more. See more features
Fast AI takeoff means nothing without real data behind it.
Plenty of AI tools can trace a box around a line. Few of them can tell you what that run actually costs.
Every fitting, valve, and pipe segment in Canaveral maps directly to your parts database and pricing. Define labor rates by diameter, material, and joining method so your team prices consistently whether one estimator touches the job or three.
At submission time, generate reports shaped for the audience: detailed breakdowns for the owner, summary sheets for the GC, material lists for the supply house. One takeoff, multiple outputs.
AI handles the speed. The data layer handles the accuracy. With Canaveral, you get both.

Frequently asked questions
What is AI pipe takeoff software?
AI pipe takeoff software uses computer vision and machine learning to automate piping quantity measurement from construction drawings. Instead of manually reading pipe sizes and counting fittings, AI reads dimensions from plan PDFs and inserts fittings automatically — reducing takeoff time while improving accuracy.
How does AI pipe takeoff work?
In Canaveral, QuickDraw reads pipe dimensions directly from your plan PDFs with a single click. As you trace pipe runs, fittings are inserted automatically based on geometry: elbows at direction changes, tees at branch connections, reducers at size transitions. Computer vision models read equipment schedules and locates valves, pumps, and other scheduled items on plan sheets (this functionality is coming soon).
What piping systems does AI pipe takeoff support?
Canaveral supports hydronic heating and cooling, chilled water, steam, condensate, refrigerant, and process piping. Each system can be organized with custom layers and filtering, with linear footage and fitting counts tracked by size and material.
How are fittings counted in AI pipe takeoff?
Fittings are inserted automatically as you trace pipe runs. The software detects angle changes and places elbows, identifies branch connections and places tees, and inserts reducers at size changes — no manual counting required.
Does the software handle valves and equipment?
This functionality is coming soon. SymbolSight reads equipment and valve schedules and locates tagged items across all plan sheets automatically. Review predictions and accept with a click for rapid, accurate counts alongside your pipe run takeoff.
