Automated Takeoff
Extract duct routes and quantities from project drawings faster, with a workflow oriented around practical takeoff throughput.
CloudtoCAM supports HVAC takeoff, estimation, job costing, nesting, and fabrication preparation directly from construction drawings so teams can move from drawing intake to priced, CNC-ready output with less manual handling.
The platform is designed to reduce repeated manual takeoff and estimating work, give teams clearer production and cost visibility, and connect drawing intake directly to priced, downstream fabrication output.
Extract duct routes and quantities from project drawings faster, with a workflow oriented around practical takeoff throughput.
Generate fabrication-ready straights and fittings with geometry, connector, seam, and machine-output workflows kept in the same system.
Live part, fabrication, and installation cost estimates update as parts are placed, so takeoff and pricing stay in the same workflow.
Prepare panels for production with nesting, machine setup, and CNC-oriented workflows in the same platform.
Keep projects accessible from the office, the factory floor, or remote sites without relying on a single workstation install.
Carry reviewed fabrication data through nesting, machine setup, and production-ready output workflows.
Use MEPtrack for manufacture-to-site delivery tracking and project batch control alongside CloudtoCAM fabrication workflows.
The operating model is straightforward: ingest the drawing, review the takeoff scope, generate fabrication components, estimate and cost the job, prepare nesting data, and release machine-ready information.
Start from project drawings and bring source information into a controlled cloud workflow.
Review drawing information and prepare quantities and fabrication intent in a controlled workflow.
Translate traced information into straights, fittings, and downstream manufacturing data.
Review live part, fabrication, and installation costs as components are generated, before committing to nesting.
Review developed components and ready them for nesting, machine setup, and downstream production.
Deliver nested layouts and machine-facing output aligned with established shop workflows.
CloudtoCAM is an independent cloud platform for MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Pipework/Plumbing) fabricators working in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) industry. It is software for duct and pipework fabrication shops, not a camera or CCTV product.
Measure duct and pipework from PDF drawings and turn the takeoff into priced, fabrication-ready parts. Read the workflow.
BIM-aware estimating and job costing for MEP contractors, with material, fabrication and installation costs in one place. Learn more.
Bring Revit MEP fabrication models through to nested panels and CNC output. See how it works.
Panel development, 2D nesting and CNC G-code from the browser, an alternative to desktop-only duct CAM software. All guides.
These areas are not part of the current supported workflow, but they are the kinds of capabilities the platform is intended to grow into over time.
Future work may allow Revit-driven model data to feed fabrication and manufacturing workflows more directly.
Longer-term plans include working more directly from centrally hosted model information rather than only uploaded drawing files.
The platform is currently in development and being shaped for live customer rollout. Register your interest to receive launch updates, early access information, and product demonstration details.
