The Marketplace

Posting and bidding are always free. We only earn on new introductions.

Listing, posting, and unlimited bidding are included in every plan. A one-time success fee applies only the first time the marketplace introduces you to a new GC — capped for your first 6 months, and every repeat job with that GC is always free.

5%Success Fee

Subcontractors & Trades

$2,500 cap · first 6 months

Win work with a brand-new GC through the marketplace and pay a one-time 5% success fee on the awarded subcontract. For your first 6 months on BuildIG.ai it's protected by a $2,500 cap, no matter how big the job. It's charged only on your first award with that GC — repeat work, change orders, and unsuccessful bids are always free.

2.5%Success Fee

Vendors & Suppliers

$1,500 cap · first 6 months

Get matched to a live bill of materials from a new GC and pay a one-time 2.5% success fee on the awarded order. For your first 6 months it's protected by a $1,500 cap. It's charged only on your first order with that GC — repeat orders and unsuccessful quotes are always free.

The 6-Month Rule

Caps protect you while you get started.

For your first 6 months the cap ($2,500 for trades, $1,500 for suppliers) shields you from large fees while you test the platform. After 6 months the cap lifts and platform-introduced awards move to the full, uncapped rate — by then you're winning consistent volume through the network.

Relationship Ledger

Existing relationships are always exempt.

Before every bid, the GC marks whether you're an existing relationship or a BuildIG.ai match. Relationships you already had off-platform incur zero fees indefinitely — success fees apply only to brand-new introductions the marketplace creates for you.

One-time · First new-GC award only · Capped first 6 months · No fee to GCs

Full Transparency

How the marketplace and success fee work — in full

No hidden charges and no fine print. Posting and bidding are always free. Read the complete breakdown of who's on the marketplace, every trade and supply category we cover, and exactly when and how the capped success fee is applied.

Reach buyers at the exact moment they're pricing

Most material sales are lost long before a quote is sent — you simply never hear about the job. BuildIG.ai changes that by matching your catalog to the bills of materials generated from real takeoffs, so you get in front of contractors while they're still pricing the work.

You list what you carry, set your pricing rules, and receive qualified leads for the exact line items you supply. Quote directly through the platform and turn takeoffs into orders without cold outreach.

  • List your full catalog and coverage area for free
  • Get matched to live bills of materials by line item
  • Send quotes to contractors while they're still bidding
  • Win recurring orders from firms that reuse your pricing

Flexible Analysis

No Drawings? No Problem. No Excuses.

Full blueprints, trade-specific sheets, or just a job description. BuildIG.ai delivers automated quantity takeoffs and complete construction BOQs however your project starts.

Upload complete architectural and engineering drawings, and BuildIG.ai will analyze the entire project — generating quantities, materials, timelines, and cost intelligence across all trades.

How It Works

Our AI scans every sheet of your blueprints, identifying structural elements, MEP systems, finishes, and site work. It cross-references specifications with regional pricing data to deliver comprehensive takeoffs.

Key Features

Multi-trade quantity extraction
Complete material breakdown
Timeline estimation
Cost intelligence across all scopes

Vendor & Supplier FAQ

What material suppliers ask before listing on BuildIG.ai.

How much does it cost to list?
Listing your catalog and coverage area is completely free. You receive matched bill-of-materials leads at no cost, and only upgrade to a verified profile when you want priority placement and unlimited quoting.
How does BuildIG.ai match me to projects?
When a contractor or estimator runs a takeoff, BuildIG.ai produces a structured bill of quantities. We match those line items against your listed catalog and service area, so you receive leads only for products you actually supply in regions you cover.
Are these leads real, active projects?
Yes. Every lead originates from a real project being priced on BuildIG.ai — not a scraped list. You're reaching contractors at the exact moment they're deciding what to buy.
How do I send a quote?
You respond to matched line items directly in the platform with your pricing, lead times, and availability. You can save pricing templates to respond to new leads in seconds.
What does a verified supplier profile add?
Verified suppliers get priority placement in match results, unlimited quoting, richer catalog pages, and analytics on how their pricing compares — so you win more of the orders you're matched to.

AI Blueprint Analysis & Automated Quantity Takeoff FAQ

Everything contractors need to know about AI-driven construction estimating

How does AI improve takeoff accuracy?
By eliminating human fatigue and using sub-millimeter digital analysis. Our AI achieves 99.5% accuracy on all materials, verified by Senior Quantity Surveyors. Every measurement is traceable and reviewable.
What file formats are supported for automated quantity takeoffs?
BuildIG.ai supports PDF, DWG, DXF, and common image formats (PNG, JPG). We can process architectural, structural, and MEP drawings. Upload what you receive from architects and engineers — no special file conversion required.
How long does an automated quantity takeoff take?
Most blueprints are processed in under 15 minutes. Complex multi-page drawings may take slightly longer depending on detail level. Compare that to the 3-5 days most teams spend on manual takeoffs.
Is my blueprint data secure?
Yes, all uploads are encrypted in transit and at rest, processed in SOC 2 Type II compliant cloud infrastructure. We never share your blueprints or project data with third parties.
Can I export the AI-generated BOQ to my existing estimating software?
Absolutely. Export your Bill of Quantities in PDF, CSV, or Excel formats for seamless integration with your estimating and project management tools including Procore, Sage, and QuickBooks.
How does the AI-driven construction BOQ differ from manual takeoffs?
BuildIG.ai reads your blueprints like a professional quantity surveyor — identifying materials, counting quantities, and organizing everything by CSI MasterFormat. The difference is speed: minutes instead of days, with consistent 99.5% accuracy across every project.
Does BuildIG.ai work for subcontractors bidding on specific trades?
Yes. Our trade-specific analyzers let plumbers, electricians, HVAC contractors, and other trades extract only their scope from project drawings. Price jobs faster than your competition without re-measuring plans.
What if I don't have blueprints — just a job description?
BuildIG.ai can generate estimates from detailed job descriptions, scope of work documents, or specifications. Our AI leverages data from similar projects to produce realistic material lists, timelines, and budget projections.
How much does BuildIG.ai cost?
We offer a Command subscription for full-platform teams and pay-per-use Estimator packages with no subscription. Every paid tier includes team collaboration and unlimited free field users. See our pricing section for details.
Does BuildIG.ai handle global standards?
Yes, fully compatible with BOM, BoQ, and NRM2 universal standards. BuildIG.ai adapts pricing to your region and serves contractors in the US, UK, Australia, South Africa, Canada, UAE, and across 6 continents with localized material pricing data.
