Structural steel estimating · Boon AI

Structural steel estimating software that reads the whole set

Boon reads structural drawings and specifications to help teams identify members, quantities, and scope context before the bid. Estimators validate the result instead of starting from a blank count.

Start with one representative plan set. Keep your estimator in the loop.

How it works

Boon is an intelligence layer for preconstruction. It handles repetitive document work and returns a result your team can inspect before the bid moves forward.

1

Start with the structural set

Upload the drawings and specifications that define the structural steel scope, including the sheets where member context and notes live.

2

Identify members and quantities

Boon processes structural scope across the set so the team can review members, counts, linear feet, tonnage, and assumptions together.

3

Validate the bid

Review the returned quantities and flagged gaps before the estimate reaches pricing, fabrication, or submission.

Members W-shapes, HSS, channels, and more
Tonnage Quantity context for review
Full set Drawings and specifications
Traceable Estimator validates the result

Built for the work before the bid

The goal is not to hide the estimator. It is to give the estimator a cleaner first pass and better evidence for the decisions only a human should make.

Standardize the first pass

Give every estimator a consistent starting point for member identification and scope review.

Keep the source visible

A quantity is easier to trust when the team can trace it back to the drawing and specification context.

Measure the right task

Boon publishes structural-steel beam detection evidence separately from other trades, so buyers can test the workflow honestly.

Questions estimators ask

What is structural steel estimating software?

Structural steel estimating software helps teams identify members, quantify material, and assemble the scope used to price a steel bid. Boon adds AI document reading and plan-and-spec review to that first pass.

How accurate is Boon for structural steel?

Boon publishes structural-steel beam detection at F1 0.93-0.95 on /accuracy. That result is specific to the published task and should be validated against the member mix in your own drawings.

Does Boon estimate steel tonnage?

Boon can return structural quantities such as counts, linear feet, and tonnage from structural drawings for estimator review. The final bid remains subject to the team's validation and pricing rules.

How much does Boon cost?

Boon Agent starts at $375 one-time for 5M tokens. See the current offer and terms at /pricing.
