The problem it solves

You need to know how much material a building design requires, but manually counting and measuring walls from a model is slow and easy to get wrong. Sharing that data with a client usually means building a report from scratch.

Who it fits

An architecture, engineering, or construction firm that needs quick, shareable quantity takeoffs from building models.

How it works

  1. Takes a Revit building file as input
  2. Reads through the model and identifies every wall and its type
  3. Calculates volumes and totals for each wall type
  4. Builds an interactive report with summary statistics and a breakdown by type
  5. Saves the finished report as a ready-to-share HTML file
What you get

Wall quantities you can see at a glance

You get an interactive report showing every wall type and volume in your building model, ready to share with your team.

What you get

A shareable, interactive HTML report showing wall quantities, volumes, and a full material breakdown.

What you need

Revit design software to produce the source file. No additional subscription or API key is needed to run the report.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
