P2P Estimating vs Ruh AI

P2P Estimating is web-based construction estimating software for subcontractors. It turns uploaded blueprints into takeoffs priced against a user’s labor and material rates. Blueprint files can be PDFs, images, or CAD files such as DWG and DXF, including multi-sheet sets. The software supports 28 trades and identifies scope, then measures counts, lengths, and areas using trade-specific takeoff logic. The generated estimate is a draft for review before bidding. Users can upload a blueprint and create a free shareable link without logging in, but an AI takeoff requires a free account. The Free plan includes 5,000 coins on signup, described as enough for a first takeoff, plus estimate saving and re-pricing and AI estimating chat. Paid plans start at $99 a month. The pricing page estimates an estimate uses roughly $25–$75 of credit depending on plan size; editing or re-pricing a saved estimate adds no credit cost. Plans are month-to-month and can be changed or canceled at any time. Failed estimates do not consume credit, and the upload flow says blueprints are not shared.

Ruh AI describes itself as an AI construction workforce for takeoffs and estimating, invoice intelligence, and bid-pipeline outreach. Its Takeoff Agent reads drawing PDFs and CAD files and returns quantities with per-item confidence and page coverage scores. The estimating process prices gaps as labeled allowances and exports results to a customer's workbook and proposal templates; an estimator reviews and signs each line before a bid goes out. The Invoice Agent reads subcontractor and supplier invoices, matches them to commitments and cost codes, and flags mismatches. Named integrations include Procore, Bluebeam, Autodesk, Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Vista, QuickBooks, JD Edwards, Trimble, Revit, Excel, and Oracle Primavera. Ruh says it runs in the customer's tenant on the customer's AI license, without data egress or training on customer data. Teams typically go live in about a week after configuration. Pricing is on request, and a free 30-minute walkthrough is offered with no card required.
