BoqCalc, an AI pipeline that prices a 500-line BOQ without hallucinating rates

BoqCalc, an AI-powered construction estimating platform, prices a 500-line bill of quantities in 30 minutes without hallucinating rates, detecting risks and generating schedules and cash flow. The tool, which replaces 15–25 hours of manual work, offers three modules—full cost analysis, express estimate, and plan and cash flow—priced at 15, 11, and 9 credits respectively, with local pricing data for multiple countries.
