Sparkel is a cloud-native platform that enables AI-assisted quantity take-offs directly from 2D PDFs and 3D BIM models (IFC, Revit), all via a browser.
It automates the process of drawing, measuring, and calculating quantities, and presents them in visual, collaborative tables that update live as project data changes.
Sparkel uses generative AI and chat-like prompts (powered by GPT-4) to parse documents — extracting areas, counts, and other metric, and generate interactive take-off tables.
It supports hybrid workflows, combining the precision of model-based quantification with sheet-based validation, supports version comparison, and maintains auditability.
Sparkel is aimed at general contractors, specialty contractors, quantity surveyors, and estimators working with design documents.
The AI Spotlight Directory is published by AEC Magazine in partnership with HP and Nvidia.
