Field24 vs.
Togal.AI
Togal.AI is a dedicated AI takeoff product: upload plans into its web workspace and it detects and measures walls, floors, ceilings, doors and windows automatically. Field24 measures too, then keeps going: local pricing, a signable proposal, and intake straight from your bid board.
No install. No training. Send a plan set and see your first takeoff in minutes.

Field24 reads the plans for you
Both detect walls, doors and windows. Field24 also reads exact lengths from the vector layer and marks each row where it was measured.
Exact lengths from the drawing itself
Wall lengths read straight from the PDF's vector layer, not guessed from pixels.
Walls, doors and windows on scans too
A floor-plan detector finds walls on scanned sheets and counts the openings along them.
Every row shows its work
Tap a row and the sheet opens with that measurement highlighted.
Local pricing, not a national average
Togal.AI stops at quantities and hands them to your estimating software. Field24 prices them as it goes: Home Depot prices for residential work, market rates from private cost databases for commercial work, labor rates adjusted to your ZIP, then a proposal your client can sign.
Residential at Home Depot, commercial at market rates
Residential work is priced at Home Depot, in the US or Canada, with the product, pack size and list price on every row. Commercial work is priced at market rates from private cost databases.
Labor rates for your area
Hourly rates by trade are adjusted to your location from the 2026 National Construction Estimator, and your own saved rates always win over the market.
Your price book, your markup
Upload a supplier price list or a past estimate and Field24 prices from your book first. Overhead, profit and contingency are yours to set.
Minutes, not a training course
Togal.AI is a workspace you open and learn. Field24 is a conversation: text the plans from the truck, answer two questions, and review the takeoff on the sheet when it comes back.
Send the plans
Text them on WhatsApp, drop them in the web app, or forward the bid email to your Field24 address. PDFs, photos, even a voice note about the scope.
Answer two questions
Your ZIP code and the scope you are bidding. That is the whole setup. No templates to build, no cost book to load first.
Review it on the sheet
The takeoff comes back priced, with every row marked on the drawing. Adjust what you want, then send the proposal for signature.
WITH Togal.AI
You run the process
A full takeoff workspace with its own tools; the vendor offers an onboarding session.
WITH
The process runs for you
Most contractors get their first takeoff back within minutes of sending the plans, and learn the tool by using it once. There is nothing to install and nobody to train.
Times depend on the size of the plan set. A typical residential or light commercial set is measured and priced in minutes; large sets take longer.
When Togal.AI is the right call
If your team lives in a takeoff workspace all day and already has estimating software for pricing, Togal.AI is a strong measuring tool. Field24 is for the contractor who wants the whole path from bid invite to signed proposal in one place.
