Consistent takeoffs across every unit type in the plan set.
Square footage, cutouts, seams, and optimized slab nesting. Ready to quote in minutes.
Counterly is countertop takeoff and quoting software for stone fabrication shops. It reads architectural and kitchen layout drawings, extracts the countertop geometry — runs, depths, islands, backsplash, fixture breaks — and produces square footage, linear footage of finished edge, a slab nesting layout, and a priced quote. It is built for shops running bridge saws and CNC/waterjet, and handles multi-unit residential jobs where one unit type repeats across dozens or hundreds of apartments.
Counterly was built inside a working stone shop by people who quote countertops for a living.
About Counterly →Counterly reads the drawing, traces each countertop run, and shows the dimensions and assumptions used in the takeoff.
Upload layout PDFs. Counterly returns countertop dimensions, cutouts, and unit types — grouped by the plan labels your estimators already use.
2D bin-packing on standard slab sizes with yield percentages and waste totals — so material cost is known before you quote.

For shops that send a lot of multi-unit quotes and need the numbers to hold up under volume.
Consistent takeoffs across every unit type in the plan set.
More quotes per estimator — minutes per takeoff, not hours.
Scale multi-unit volume without rebuilding your estimating process.

A countertop takeoff is the measurement of every countertop surface in a job from drawings, producing square footage, linear footage of finished edge, and a piece-by-piece breakdown. It is the input to both the material order and the customer quote.
Architectural plans, kitchen layout sheets, elevations, and shop submittals, as vector PDFs exported from CAD or design software. Multi-unit matrix submittals with repeating unit types are supported directly.
Unit types are read once and multiplied by quantity, then nested across the whole job rather than per unit. That cross-type nesting is where slab savings come from on large residential projects.
Yes. A finished takeoff becomes a priced quote: a line per unit type, backsplash on its own line, plus the edge and cutout items from your price list. Download it as a PDF.
Yes. Counterly asks about anything the drawing leaves open; answer the questions and re-read, and the numbers follow your answers. For a hand-drawn job, every run is editable on the Draw tab.
Any. Standard, jumbo, and super jumbo are preset, and you can enter the actual dimensions of the bundle you're buying.
