Looking for a
Kreo alternative?
FloorScan analyzes a PDF automatically in ~30 seconds — walls, doors, windows, rooms and surfaces — then exports to layered DXF and Excel. Kreo is a fuller estimating/takeoff suite; FloorScan is the fast, focused way to turn a PDF plan into structured quantities. Honest comparison below.
In one line
Kreo is the better fit if you want a full estimating and BoQ platform with cost databases. FloorScan wins when your main need is turning existing PDF plans into accurate quantities and DXF/Excel fast — standalone, or to feed your estimator.
Why teams switch from Kreo to FloorScan
Automatic detection, not manual takeoff
FloorScan auto-detects walls, openings and rooms with AI in seconds. Kreo's takeoff is largely assisted/manual — you draw and measure. FloorScan removes the whole first pass.
No learning curve
Kreo is a full estimating platform with real onboarding. FloorScan works in one screen: upload a PDF, review, export. Useful from the very first plan, no training needed.
Layered DXF + Excel export
FloorScan exports a layered AutoCAD DXF (concrete, partitions, doors, windows) and an XLSX takeoff — ready for AutoCAD/Revit or your BoQ. You can even feed the result back into Kreo for pricing.

Migration FAQs
Does FloorScan do cost estimating like Kreo?
No — FloorScan focuses on plan analysis and quantity/surface extraction, then exports to DXF and Excel. It doesn't include cost databases or bid pricing. Many teams use FloorScan for the fast takeoff and keep their estimating tool (or Kreo) for pricing.
Can I use FloorScan alongside Kreo?
Yes, they're complementary. Use FloorScan to auto-extract quantities and a clean layered DXF from a PDF in seconds, then import the DXF/Excel into Kreo (or any estimator) for pricing and BoQ. You save the manual takeoff time.
