Built for General Contractors
Verify sub bids, catch scope gaps, and build accurate budgets. AI-powered takeoffs give you independent quantity data across every trade on your project.
Trusted by general contractors on projects of every scale
Multi-trade oversight from a single platform
Run takeoffs across all trades on one project. Compare quantities against sub bids, identify scope gaps between trades, and quantify change orders quickly.
Sub bid verification
Run independent takeoffs to verify subcontractor quantities. Know whether a low bid reflects efficiency or missing scope before you award the contract.
Scope gap detection
Compare takeoffs across adjacent trades to identify items that fall between scopes. Catch the gaps before they become change orders during construction.
Multi-trade project takeoffs
Run quantity takeoffs for every trade division on a single project from one platform. No need to manage separate tools for different specialties.
Change order quantification
When design changes hit, quantify the impact in minutes. Upload revised plans and compare against original takeoffs to see exactly what changed and by how much.

What general contractors are saying
Hear from GCs who use Exayard to verify bids, manage budgets, and deliver projects on cost.
“We caught a $340,000 scope gap between the mechanical and electrical subs on a hospital project. That one catch paid for three years of the platform.”
“Our preconstruction team runs independent takeoffs on every sub bid now. It takes 30 minutes per trade instead of days, and we go into scope reviews with real data.”
“Change order quantification used to take our team a full day. Now we can turn around quantity impacts the same afternoon the architect issues revised drawings.”
Why independent quantity verification matters for general contractors
General contractors manage risk across every trade on a project, but most rely entirely on subcontractor-provided quantities during preconstruction. When a sub bid comes in low, the GC has limited ability to determine whether the savings are real or the result of missing scope. When adjacent trades disagree on where one scope ends and another begins, the gaps often go unnoticed until construction reveals them as change orders. These issues compound on larger projects where dozens of subcontractors submit bids with varying levels of takeoff quality.
AI-powered takeoffs give general contractors the ability to run independent quantity verification across every trade on a project. Instead of accepting subcontractor numbers at face value, preconstruction teams can compare their own quantities against each bid. This does not replace the subcontractor estimating process. It adds a verification layer that catches scope gaps, quantity discrepancies, and pricing anomalies before they become project cost problems. On a typical commercial project, GCs using this approach report identifying 5-15% in potential cost issues during preconstruction that would have surfaced as change orders during construction.
Build budgets you can defend
General contractors using Exayard report fewer budget surprises, better sub negotiations, and more confident project pricing.
Catch scope gaps before they cost you
Identify items that fall between trade scopes before construction starts. Resolve ambiguities during preconstruction instead of paying for them as change orders.
Negotiate sub bids with data
Walk into scope reviews with independent quantities. Understand where a subcontractor bid is high, where it is low, and where scope might be missing.
Reduce budget overruns by 40%
Independent quantity verification across all trades catches the discrepancies that typically surface during construction as costly surprises.
Quantify change orders in minutes
When the owner issues a design change, quantify the impact immediately. Faster change order turnaround means faster approval and less project delay.
Win more competitive bids
Accurate self-performed work estimates and verified sub numbers let you price projects tighter without increasing risk.
Standardize your preconstruction process
Give your preconstruction team a consistent workflow for quantity verification across all project types and sizes.
