The Problem
Estimators spend 60% of their time on work AI should do
Reading 200-page specs, counting items on plans, cross-referencing CSI codes — tedious, error-prone work. A single missed spec reference can cost $50,000+ in rework.
The Solution
Three capabilities.
Zero competitors.
We Read Your Specs
Upload a spec PDF. Precaliq identifies every CSI section, extracts manufacturers, materials, fire ratings, hardware sets, and finishes — page by page.
- Supports 200+ page specification documents
- Extracts data from all CSI divisions automatically
- Identifies manufacturers, materials, and finishes
CSI Divisions
08 14 00 — Wood Doors
Extracted from Project Specification, pages 142–148
We Cross-Reference Everything
Specs say "1-hr fire-rated, oak veneer." Plans say "Door D-101." Precaliq connects them automatically — no manual lookup.
- Matches spec requirements to plan schedules
- Generates takeoff items with full CSI details
- Multi-option variants: Standard, Premium, Budget
