Welcome to Xtimo AI

Xtimo AI automates construction cost estimation — turning blueprints and BOQ files into a priced Bill of Quantities.

Welcome to Xtimo AI

Xtimo AI is an AI-powered platform for construction cost estimation. Upload your architectural blueprints and existing BOQ files, and Xtimo AI reads them, extracts quantities, finds prices, and delivers a complete priced Bill of Quantities — ready to export to Excel.

What you can do with Xtimo AI

  • Upload architectural blueprint PDFs and have AI extract room dimensions, walls, doors, windows, and finishes
  • Upload an existing Excel BOQ and have AI detect columns, read work items, and find prices from your organisation's library
  • Describe a project in words and have AI generate a BOQ from scratch — no files needed
  • Review and edit the BOQ through a chat interface
  • Run an automated audit to catch missing prices and unusual quantities before export
  • Download the finished priced BOQ as an Excel file

How a project works

  1. Create a project and upload your files — choose the mode that matches what you have (blueprints, a BOQ file, both, or neither)
  2. AI processes everything — classifies your blueprint pages, extracts quantities, matches prices from your element library; you can run this automatically or step through manually
  3. Review, refine, and export — use the AI Assistant to make changes, check the audit results, then download your priced BOQ
