Squares, flashing, and penetrations,measured off the real roof plan.
Ruh AI runs the roofing takeoff on your actual drawing set: field area measured by roof section and totaled into squares, membrane or shingle area with the pitch factor applied so plan area becomes actual roof area, edge metal and flashing counted in linear feet along every perimeter and parapet, and drains, scuppers, curbs, skylights, and pipe penetrations counted off the roof plan and reconciled against the details. Tapered insulation, crickets, and cover board are taken off the system buildup, terminations and details are read from the Division 07 sheets, and the estimate is priced across nine stages on your own historical rates. Every quantity is labeled measured, derived, or assumed with a confidence and coverage score, and your estimator signs every line.
- ✓Field area in squares, edge metal in linear feet, penetrations counted

The roofing bid crew.
The agents that carry a roof set from measured takeoff to a priced, signed proposal.
From roof plan to priced roofing bid, one motion.
Send the roof set
Roof plans, sections, details, and the Division 07 spec, straight from the invitation. Sheet and detail classification starts immediately.
Field, perimeter, and penetrations run
Area measured by section and totaled into squares with the pitch factor applied, edge metal and flashing measured in linear feet, and curbs, drains, scuppers, and penetrations counted.
System priced on your book
Membrane or shingles, insulation, tapered packages, cover board, fasteners, adhesive, and flashings priced on your own assemblies and history, with tear-off and disposal where the scope calls for it.
Your estimator signs
Review by confidence and coverage score, adjust the assumptions, and export into your own proposal format.
The roofing bid squeeze.
Coverage decides the year
Roofers bid far more work than a small estimating room can measure by hand. Every set that sits unpriced is a job that goes to the roofer who got a number out first.
The details are where it leaks
Field area is the easy part. The margin hides in the curbs, scuppers, pitch pans, tapered crickets, and the linear feet of counterflashing that are easy to miss on a fast manual takeoff.
Lump-sum leaves no room to be wrong
Most roofing goes out as a lump sum. A missed cricket, the wrong pitch factor, or a light waste number does not surface in a change order. It comes straight off the crew's margin.
AI roofing takeoff and estimating, explained.
The takeoff is the bid
Roofing estimators tell us the same thing: the number is only as good as the quantities behind it, and the quantities take hours to pull by hand off a PDF. When the field area, the perimeter, and the penetration count run as one measured pass on the real roof plan, the same room prices more sets and keeps senior judgment on the details, the terminations, and the assemblies, which is where a roofing bid is actually won or lost.
Built for how roofs are measured
Low-slope and steep-slope are different takeoffs, and the pipeline treats them that way. Field area is measured by roof section and totaled into squares, the pitch factor is applied so plan area becomes actual roof area, edge metal and base flashing are measured along every perimeter and parapet in linear feet, and drains, scuppers, curbs, skylights, and pipe penetrations are counted off the plan and reconciled against the detail sheets and the Division 07 spec. Tapered insulation, crickets, and cover board are taken off the system buildup, not guessed at from the field area.
Priced on your book, signed by your estimator
The quantities are priced across nine stages on your own historical rates and assemblies for the systems you install, whether that is TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, built-up, shingles, or standing seam, with tear-off and disposal carried where the scope calls for it. Every line is labeled measured, derived, or assumed with a confidence and coverage score, so a light spot in the set is visible in the review instead of buried in a lump sum. Nothing goes out until your estimator signs it, and it all runs inside your own tenant on Bluebeam, Procore, Autodesk, and Excel, live in about a week.

Can it price on our own roofing rates?
Does it fit the software we already run?
How do I know which quantities to trust?
Can it give a quick budget number and a full bid?
