How Canaveral Helps
The commercial HVAC estimating challenge...
Tight bid deadlines
Commercial projects come with aggressive timelines. You need to turn around accurate quantity takeoffs fast without sacrificing precision on fittings counts, insulation, hardware, and dozens of other concerns.
How Canaveral Helps
AI-accelerated takeoff
QuickDraw provides you with one-click dimension selection. SymbolSight lets you fly through equipment and distribution takeoff. A robust data layer ensures your estimate is air-tight and detailed.
The commercial HVAC estimating challenge...
Complex duct systems
Large commercial buildings mean multi-floor systems with VAV boxes, diffusers, dampers, and hundreds of fittings. Manual counting leads to missed items and costly change orders.
How Canaveral Helps
Automatic elbow and fitting insertion
Elbows, tees, reducers, transitions, and offsets are automatically added as you trace duct runs. No more manually counting fittings across 50-page plan sets.
The commercial HVAC estimating challenge...
Inconsistent material weights
Calculating accurate sheet metal weights for galvanized, stainless, and aluminum ductwork is tedious. Errors compound into material cost miscalculations.
How Canaveral Helps
SMACNA-standards metadata locking
Industry-standard guardrails for SMACNA Duct Construction. Hangers, connection standards, and reinforcement rules are all built in to Canaveral.

Training new estimators
Confusing, bloated software makes onboarding a nightmare. New hires struggle with cluttered interfaces and unnecessary complexity instead of focusing on learning takeoff.
How Canaveral Helps
Clean, intuitive interface
Our best-in-class user interface gets out of the way so anyone can fly through takeoff in minutes—no lengthy training required. Junior estimators ramp up fast while seniors stay in flow. Even non-estimator staff have become avid Canaveral users.
And much, much more. See more features
Do takeoff faster without losing all the details
Other AI takeoff products provide a flashy demo, inaccurate bounding boxes, and rough linear footage guestimates. You can't bid a commercial job on that.
Canaveral prices materials the way your shop actually makes them: by gauge, by weight, coil vs. flat sheet, rectangular vs. spiral round. Labor rates account for the factors that actually move your costs: building height, system complexity, crew size, and site conditions.
Generate takeoff reports formatted for your shop or preferred vendors. Export to Excel, PDF, or CSV with your company branding and pricing. Save templates for one-click exports across your team.
AI speeds you up, & the data layer keeps your bid honest. With Canaveral, you don't need to sacrifice quality for speed.
