PlanSwift cloud alternative

The cloud alternative to PlanSwift

PlanSwift is Windows desktop software: per-PC installs, per-seat licenses, and drag-and-drop takeoff a person still drives. Boon is the cloud alternative — AI construction estimating software that runs from any browser, does the takeoff automatically, and returns a bid-ready package in Slack.

Why teams look for PlanSwift in the cloud

PlanSwift's assemblies and takeoff workflow are established. What the desktop model cannot give you is access from anywhere, without installs, for the whole team.

Per-PC installs

Tied to a machine.

PlanSwift lives on the Windows PC where it is installed. Cloud software works from any browser on any machine, Mac included.

Per-seat licenses

Headcount-priced.

Every estimator needs a seat. Boon's cloud delivery scales with the work instead of the payroll.

Manual takeoff

You still measure.

Drag-and-drop is faster than paper, but the measuring is still yours. Boon's AI does the takeoff and hands you the package to review.

What the cloud version of estimating looks like

Boon reads drawings and specs together as one document, does the takeoff across trades, flags spec-to-drawing mismatches, and delivers a bid-ready package to Slack.

Automatic takeoff

AI does the counting.

Quantities across trades from the Construction Vision Model, with published per-trade F1 scores.

Spec cross-check

Mismatches flagged.

Conflicts between specs and drawings surface in the package, before they become change orders.

Slack delivery

The package finds the team.

Results land in your Slack channel — no installs, no file-passing, no second tool to finish the bid.
