Kreo
Kreo is cloud quantity takeoff and estimating software that uses computer vision on PDF, CAD, and image drawings to auto-measure, count, and link measurements to reports and cost assemblies.
Built for quantity surveyors, estimators, and contractors, Kreo runs in the browser so teams can upload construction drawings, set or detect scale, and produce measurements without a local install. The product pairs on-sheet markup with grid and spreadsheet-style reports that stay linked to geometry, plus an items and assemblies layer for turning takeoff into priced scopes.
On the marketing site, Kreo publishes aggregate ratings from review profiles such as G2 (about 4.5 out of 5 from roughly 32 reviews as shown on kreo.net) and highlights a cloud delivery model with company-level roles for viewing, editing, commenting, and administration (Kreo, 2026).
Workflow coverage spans automated area and linear measures, pattern-based counts across sheets, drawing comparison for revisions, text search with regex options, 3D view for spatial checks, and export to PDF while preserving markups. A voice-capable assistant on drawings is positioned for questions that stay grounded in sheet context rather than generic chat output.
Higher tiers add API access, custom report templates, and enterprise-oriented data migration, permissions, and integration topics that sales handles through demo booking.
