Disclosure: I built this. Solo, in NZ, over the last few months.

Bluebeam dropped its Mac client in 2019 and never brought it back. I’m a QS working on a Mac, so I built the PDF markup and takeoff app I wanted to use myself.

Founder price is US$19 one-off for the first 100 licences. Planned regular price is US$79. No subscription.

Blueprint for Mac is a native macOS app for PDF markup, measurement and takeoffs. Files stay on your machine — there’s no cloud account required.

It includes markup tools such as clouds, callouts, stamps and status markers, calibrated length/area/count takeoffs with CSV export, revision comparison, tabs, thumbnails, bookmarks, automatic links, batch tools, on-device OCR and multi-term PDF search.

The Founder Licence is a one-off purchase, can be used on two Macs, and includes updates throughout the 1.x release series.

This is the first public release and it’s already at v1.1.1 after a couple of early fixes.

The US$19 Founder price is available only for the first 100 licences. After that, the planned regular price is US$79.

    Yep, I will but before I do that i want to get the app to the point I’m happy with. I use it myself for work and often find little things I think could be improved , so once I’m happy with it I’ll definitely look at a windows build. Register on the website if you want to get notified when it does get a window release

  So is this aimed at Quantity Surveyors or people working in construction? That's not my field, but I did at one point (many years ago) thought about going into surveying. Might switch careers if I get bored of IT one day.

  Could you add some more screenshots to your website? I can't get a grasp of what features the app offers based on the screenshot that's on the page. And I'm not at home to be able to trial this on my Mac just yet.

  It’s mainly aimed at people working in construction, especially QSs, estimators, engineers and contractors, but it can be useful for anyone who works with technical PDFs or drawings.

  I’ll add some more screenshots and feature information to the website by the end of this week. If you can flick me an email at [email protected] i can let you know when I’ve updated the website

  Update: 1.1.2 is out. Save As is fixed, Bluebeam and Acrobat markups now open and can be edited, quantities are more accurate, and there's a free 14-day trial with no card needed. 77 of 100 founder licences left.
