Setout turns approved construction drawings into traceable quantity takeoffs and an explorable 3D building model for NYC builders.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-05 issue.

For: NYC builders, estimators, and owner-builders
Worth noticing: An unclear wall type or missing height is withheld—not counted as zero—and recorded when answered.

Field notes

The sample covers a 14-storey building with a cellar and 84 apartments, with wall-level material lists and quantities that can be grouped by floor or type. The site says its fastest completed example moved from drawings to a reviewed takeoff in one day; that is a reported result, not independently verified. It also describes Excel/PDF exports and revision history.
