01 — Features
Everything in the takeoff, on one desktop
Tools for measuring plans, calculating coatings, and checking quotes. No cloud account required — work stays on your computer.
Area, linear, and count measuring
Click vertices to draw with a rubber band, then come back and edit points after they’re laid down.
Curved edges
Pull a curve on an edge when a room or island isn’t a straight polygon.
Smart outline
Auto-outline and lasso on scanned plans, with ink snap so traces follow the printed line.
Coating volume from thickness
Turn measured area into material from mils, solids percentage, kit size, and flake.
Multi-layer coating systems
Build a system from multiple layers and start from templates you can edit.
Marked-up PDF export
Export a plan with numbered tags, a key page, and labels placed so they don’t overlap.
Supplier quote check
Check a supplier quote against your takeoff from a PDF, Excel, or CSV file.
PDF layers and multiple PDFs per job
Work with layered drawings, and keep more than one PDF on the same job.
Satellite and address measuring
Look up an address and measure outdoor area from overhead satellite imagery. Saved offline, with attribution.
Works offline, on your PC
Truline Takeoff runs as a local Windows desktop app. Your job data stays on your computer.
02 — How it works
From plan to marked-up takeoff
-
1
Open your plans
Import one or more PDFs for a job, or look up an address for outdoor areas. Set a calibrated scale so every measurement is true to the drawing.
-
2
Measure the work
Click vertices to draw areas, lengths, and counts with a rubber band. Use Smart outline and ink snap on scanned plans. Adjust points and curved edges after they’re placed.
-
3
Calculate and export
Get coating volume from your systems — mils, solids, kit size, and flake. Check a supplier quote from PDF, Excel, or CSV, then export a marked-up PDF with numbered tags, a key page, and labels that don’t overlap.
03 — Who it’s for
Built for coating and flooring contractors
Truline Takeoff is made for the people who think in mils, solids, kit sizes, and flake, and who need a takeoff that matches that work — not a generic measuring tool.
It comes from Terra Coat LLC, a coating and flooring company, and it runs as a local Windows desktop app. Work stays on your PC, including when you’re offline.
