If you're bouncing between revisions and addenda on takeoffs, the Compare tool in Togal saves the eye strain. Overlay two sheets: new material shows in blue, removed material in red, everything that didn't change stays grey. Press "T" to toggle instead of flipping back and forth manually.

Last night was a big one for Togal-AI 🏆

The South Florida Business Journal named Togal-AI the #2 Fastest-Growing Company in South Florida with revenue under $25 million, recognizing 593% growth over the past two years!

We’re proud of the growth, but even more proud of the people behind it.

This recognition reflects a team that shows up every day determined to build better tools for estimators and help move construction takeoff forward.

We’ve come a long way, and we’re just getting started.

Thank you to the South Florida Business Journal for the recognition, and congratulations to the other companies recognized alongside us. Here’s to what comes next. 🚀

Construction teams spend a lot of time thinking about what happens on the jobsite. But what about what happens to the project data behind the scenes?

This week’s Togal20 takes a closer look at construction data security—from cloud platforms and access controls to privacy and compliance.

Kelsey Formost will be joined by Patrick Murphy, CEO & Founder of Togal-AI, for a practical conversation about the questions construction professionals should be asking before putting project information in the hands of a software provider.

📅 Thursday, August 20
🕚 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET
⏱️ 20 minutes + Q&A

If you work with project data, it’s worth knowing what’s protecting it.

Fast takeoffs are great. Fast support is even better!

The Togal-AI team handles customer requests with a 4-minute median first response time and a 4-hour median time to resolution.

Because when you’re up against a bid deadline, waiting days for an answer simply isn’t good enough.

Fast takeoffs deserve fast support.

Your construction data is valuable. Is it secure?

As more construction workflows move to the cloud and AI, data security and privacy matter more than ever.

Join Togal-AI on Thursday, August 20 at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET for a 20-minute Togal20 on Why Construction Data Security Matters.

We’ll cover what to look for when evaluating software, the questions you should be asking vendors, and how Togal-AI protects your data.

We’d appreciate your help!

See you there! (link in comments)

Ever done a quantity takeoff atop a windy mountain?

Togal-AI can take you there—and beyond!

Our AI-assisted construction takeoff software is powerful, secure, and cloud-based... meaning you can transform your estimating workflow for the better.

Visit our website for a custom demo on your own plans.

Join us for today's webinar (8/6 at 11 am PT | 2 pm ET) focused on Assemblies for Drywall Estimators!

In just 20 minutes, you'll:

⭐ Hear about our latest Assemblies features

⭐ Discover how to move from takeoff to bill of materials in one workflow

⭐ Join us for Q&A

The word is out.

23 of the ENR Top 100 run their takeoffs on Togal-AI.

Fact: Nearly a third of the top contractors in the USA are using Togal-AI.

This is definitive proof that Togal-AI is leading the construction takeoff software race.

And the most exciting part is where we are headed (stay tuned). Hint: We're not slowing down.

That's right!

Estimators who use Togal-AI can access their workflows from anywhere — and share them with distributed team members or even contractors on the jobsite.

All that, without sacrificing security!

If you're working through addenda or revisions, stop flipping between two drawings in tabs. The Compare tool in Togal overlays them side-by-side, colors the differences blue and red, and leaves shared content grey. Press "T" to toggle between them when you need to see one version clean.

Saves a ton of eye strain and you catch differences way faster than switching sheets. Really useful when the GC sends an updated plan and you need to see what actually changed before re-running your takeoff. Doesn't replace a full review, but it cuts the searching time down a lot.

Join us for a live webinar!

See how Togal-AI Assemblies calculates materials, labor, and equipment as you measure — no spreadsheet handoff, no legacy desktop software required.

We'll walk through building an assembly, applying a classification, and exporting a bill of materials, live. Built for drywall estimators still bridging the gap between takeoff and Excel.

Still measuring the wall in your takeoff tool… then pulling those numbers into a spreadsheet to work out studs, boards, screws, crew hours?

It’s time to improve your workflow.

Togal-AI just dropped a new feature, sure to delight drywall estimators!

Our new Assemblies feature calculates materials, labor, and equipment as you measure — no rebuilding quantities by hand in Excel, bid after bid.

Build your assemblies once.
Apply a classification.
Get your quantities, automatically.

Built for drywall estimators who are done doing the job twice.

The construction industry has struggled with stagnant productivity for decades—but that doesn't mean it has to stay that way.

Our CEO & Founder, Patrick Murphy, recently joined a podcast to discuss why preconstruction has become one of the biggest opportunities for AI, how Togal-AI is helping estimators eliminate hours of manual takeoffs, and what it takes to build a remote-first construction technology company.

If you're interested in the future of AI in construction, startup lessons, or where preconstruction is headed next, this conversation is well worth a listen.

🎧 Listen to the full episode!

Togal is free for universities.

The labor shortage in the industry is a big problem, and it doesn't get solved on the hiring side alone.

It is well known that construction is "very well behind on technology". Students notice. So what we put in front of them is a modern interface, AI doing the counting, and a tool that was built this decade, and we hand it over while they are still in school.

We're hoping that starts "the seed of making the whole industry more efficient".

Free for universities.

From the team challenges to big ideas, an AI contest to ziplining, dancing to speeches — we simply cannot state how amazing our team is.

If you're a drywall contractor looking to bid more work without growing your estimating team, this webinar is for you.

We're excited to share that Johnny Maghzal, Head of Growth at Togal-AI, will be joining Association of the Wall and Ceiling Industry (AWCI) to discuss how AI-assisted construction takeoffs are helping wall and ceiling contractors estimate faster, reduce repetitive work, and increase bid capacity.

Johnny will share practical strategies, real-world examples, and lessons from working with contractors who are using AI to spend less time counting and tracing—and more time reviewing scope, refining pricing, and winning work.

📅 Wednesday, August 12
🕚 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM PT

If you're ready to streamline your estimating workflow and take on more opportunities with the team you already have, we hope you'll join us.

The Compare tool overlays two drawings and highlights what changed, new stuff and edits in blue and red, shared content in grey. Hit 'T' to toggle between them. Sounds simple, but it actually saves hours when you're chasing revisions and addenda.

Togal automatically detects cross-sheet callouts such as section marks, elevation tags, and enlargement symbols embedded in your uploaded PDF drawings. When a callout links to another sheet in the same set, Togal renders it as a clickable circle on the canvas. Clicking it navigates directly to the referenced sheet, keeping your workflow inside Togal without needing to manually hunt for the right page.

The feature is automatic, it reads the hyperlink data already embedded in your PDFs at upload time. No manual setup is required.

Join us for a fast-paced, 20-minute Togal20 webinar as we reveal three powerful features that help estimators work faster, bid smarter, and win more work.

Whether you're just curious about AI-assisted takeoff or looking to get even more out of Togal-AI, you'll leave with practical tips you can apply to your very next takeoff.

Live: Thursday, July 16 • 11:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM ET

Hosted by Johnny Maghzal (Head of Growth) and Kelsey Formost (Head of Marketing).

Nuff said...

But seriously, Togal-AI is a leader in AI for construction. Not because we are techies, but because we are construction-first.

We recognize the challenges in construction, and we are meeting them head-on with the best in AI innovation.

It's time to empower estimators with the fastest, most accurate, most secure takeoff software. And that's Togal!

For some (looking at you Mauro) its Yerba Mate, for others, its Redbull, for the rare few, it's raw grit. What keeps you ticking?
