Quick answers
Common questions
What is ContractorCounter?
ContractorCounter is browser-based construction drawing markup software. It gives contractors and reviewers one place to annotate PDFs, calibrate scale, measure accurately, place stamps, track counts, and export clean marked-up drawings without desktop-only tooling.
Is ContractorCounter a Bluebeam alternative?
Yes. ContractorCounter is a modern Bluebeam alternative for teams that want markup, measurement, comments, and export workflows in the browser. The focus is fast construction drawing review and annotation without the overhead of legacy desktop software.
Is ContractorCounter a PlanSwift alternative?
For markup and measurement workflows, yes. ContractorCounter gives estimators and reviewers a faster way to annotate plans, calibrate scale, measure areas and lengths, and organize markups before pricing happens in the rest of their workflow.
What markup tools are included?
The platform is built around practical construction markup tools such as text, callouts, arrows, highlights, clouds, stamps, counts, and calibrated measurements. The goal is to make plan review faster, clearer, and easier to share.
Can I measure area, length, and counts from PDFs?
Yes. You can calibrate a drawing and then use measurement and count tools directly on the sheet. That makes ContractorCounter useful for preconstruction review, scope checks, field coordination, and markup preparation ahead of estimating.
Does ContractorCounter replace estimating software?
No. ContractorCounter is focused on markup, annotation, measurement, and drawing review. It improves the quality and speed of the markup step so teams can move cleaner information into pricing, takeoff, or proposal workflows where needed.
