What is Sharp Pencil?

Sharp Pencil provides an advanced commercial roofing takeoff service, utilizing AI technology to assist contractors and estimators. Clients can upload their plan sets and specifications for thorough evaluation, resulting in accurate measurements for various low-slope roofing systems, including TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofs, in addition to components such as insulation, tapered assemblies, parapets, edge metal, drains, curbs, and penetrations. Each takeoff undergoes a careful review by a roofing specialist before it is presented in a workbook format, which not only cites the original drawings but also offers a register for any open questions (RFI). Customers generally receive their finalized takeoff within 48 hours, ensuring a quick turnaround. Alongside the takeoff, the deliverables might include a materials order list and a customized proposal for clients who share their pricing details. This service is designed for a wide range of commercial projects, such as new constructions, reroofing, repairs, and mixed-system roofs, while it is not applicable to residential projects. The first takeoff for a live bid is offered at no charge, with the option to obtain further takeoffs on a per-drawing basis or through subscription plans. This efficient system not only saves time but also empowers contractors to optimize their bidding processes, thereby improving their competitive edge in the industry. Ultimately, Sharp Pencil aims to simplify the complexities of roofing takeoffs for its clients, allowing them to focus more on project execution.
