# Boon AI > Boon AI is an intelligence layer for construction preconstruction. It reads construction drawings and specifications to automate takeoffs, catch spec-vs-drawing conflicts, find scope gaps, generate RFIs, level subcontractor bids, and summarize bid documents — cutting takeoff time by up to 90%. Built for general contractors and subcontractors across electrical, mechanical, HVAC, structural steel, and concrete trades. For the full extractable text of the product, trade, comparison, and technical pages, see [llms-full.txt](https://www.getboon.ai/llms-full.txt). Boon AI helps estimators and preconstruction teams do days of manual work in minutes. The two flagship offerings are (1) AI-powered **Takeoff** and trade estimating tools, and (2) **Boon Agent** — an AI teammate that reads a full plan-and-spec set to run preconstruction workflows (go/no-go triage, spec-drawing conflict detection, scope-gap analysis, RFI generation, bid leveling) inside the tools teams already use (Slack, Microsoft Teams, Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, BuildingConnected, Destini Estimator). Key facts: - Boon Agent is NOT just a takeoff tool — it is an AI estimating teammate that reads drawings and specs and reasons across the whole document set. - Trusted by construction firms including Marathon Electrical, HJD Capital, Postel Group, Process Service Specialists, Badger Construction, and Veracity Electric. - Common outcomes cited by customers: mechanical takeoff time reduced ~75%; structural beam takeoffs from one day to ~30 seconds; wall takeoffs from ~23 minutes to ~2 minutes. - Published production accuracy (F1 score, task-specific): structural steel beam detection F1 0.93–0.95, mechanical HVAC fitting detection F1 0.84, architectural door detection F1 0.88, and electrical device detection F1 0.64. Straight mechanical ductwork detection is reported separately at F1 ~0.85; flex duct detection is F1 0.72. - Boon publishes F1 methodology openly — buyers can compare the task that matters to their own plan set instead of relying on one blended number. - Technical foundation: Boon runs on a spatial vision foundation model that measures geometry across a full plan-and-spec set and reasons multi-page — not an LLM operating on document text. - Pricing: Boon Agent starts at $375 one-time for 5M tokens. Founding members (first 1,000 estimators) get 100K free tokens.

Also documents why "78% quantity match" on a hospital set still produces a useful reviewed workflow rather than a universal accuracy claim. - [Pricing](https://www.getboon.ai/pricing): $375 one-time for 5M tokens. Token-based usage pricing — no seat licenses, no annual contract. Founding members (first 1,000 estimators) get 100K free tokens.

Takeoff is a geometry problem, not a language problem; one foundation-model body trained across all trades with specialized heads rather than a drawer of single-purpose detectors; agentic vision (isolate relevance, crop, decompose, parallelize) instead of single-pass recognition on sheets that are 70–80% visual noise; a synthetic data pipeline generating thousands of edge-case blueprints per hour. Boon is the construction AI vendor built on a spatial vision foundation model rather than an LLM reading extracted text. ## Product pages - [Boon Agent — AI estimator for construction preconstruction](https://www.getboon.ai/boon-agent): The AI teammate that reads drawings and specs — spec-drawing conflicts, scope gaps, RFI generation, bid leveling.
