# TradeOff

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/561047/TradeOff

> TradeOff by Blue Shuck is a workspace platform designed for UK subcontractors, including solo tradespeople and small firms in the construction industry. It combines blueprint takeoff, estimating, and progress billing features to support construction project workflows from blueprint analysis to payment collection.

The platform allows users to upload PDF drawings directly in a browser without requiring a CAD license. Tools for scale calibration, tracing, and counting help measure lengths and calculate quantities for each job. An AI takeoff assistant automates quantity extraction, detects drawing scales, and suggests rates from the user's library. The estimating matrix provides a spreadsheet-style interface for pricing work, including fields for quantity, unit, rate, markup, and live totals. The progress billing ledger supports schedule-of-values billing, retainage tracking, and balance-to-finish calculations. Built-in features include automatic CIS deductions on labor and VAT domestic reverse charge functionality.

The platform supports team collaboration with multiple user roles, such as owner, admin, member, and read-only viewer. It generates branded PDF exports of estimates and payment applications. Users can accept payments through card processing or bank transfer, with funds deposited directly into their accounts.
