# Is AI takeoff software like Togal worth around $300 a month for a small estimating shop?

Togal's pricing page (re-checked 2026-10-16) lists Growth at $299 per user per month, billed yearly. Whether that pays off depends on how many takeoffs you run and in which trades. Users in other r/estimators threads (Q1, Q3) say it's strongest on finishes, areas, wall lengths and counts, and that every result still needs checking.

Before you commit: (1) count how many takeoffs a month you'd run through it; (2) trial it on your own drawings, not their demo set; (3) price the alternatives. Re-checked 2026-10-16: Kreo's plans are now Essential at $100 per user per month (billed annually; its page says "without AI"), Pro (AI takeoff) at $175, and Business at $250 per user per month (5 seats). STACK offers a free version of Takeoff & Estimate, with paid plans "as low as" $49 per user per month. If you only bid a few jobs a month, a free or cheaper manual tool plus a free AI assistant for reading notes and specs is often the better deal, and you need people on the team who'll actually use whichever tool you buy.
