About

Built by AEC for AEC

QSKing was built by quantity surveying and BIM professionals who experienced firsthand the gap between what Revit models contain and what practising QS professionals need to produce a bill of quantities.

The traditional QTO workflow — scaling drawings, entering dimensions, deducting openings manually, reconciling revisions — has not fundamentally changed since Ivor H. Seeley described it in Building Quantities Explained in 1965. The fifth edition, published in 1988, was the last. The profession moved on. The tools did not keep pace.

Autodesk Revit changed what was possible. Every element in a Revit model carries its geometry — length, area, volume, material composition, structural function. The information needed to produce a compliant bill of quantities is already there. The question was how to extract it correctly, apply measurement rules automatically, and give the QS the authoring control they need to produce a professional document.

QSKing answers that question. It is not a model viewer. It is not a geometry browser. It is a quantity surveying tool — built on AIQS Standard Method of Measurement rules, designed for the practising QS, and integrated directly into Revit so the QS never loses contact with the source of truth.

Our principles

The QS is in control

Every extraction decision can be overridden. Set External Finish, Set Paint, Set Formwork Type, Pick & Choose — the QS’s professional judgement takes precedence over the model.

SMM rules, not just geometry

Raw geometry is not a bill of quantities. QSKing applies AIQS SMM measurement rules automatically — opening thresholds, excavation staging, formwork classification — so the output is ready for the BQ.

Revisions without pain

Design changes are where QS time is lost. The delta engine identifies every change, updates linked quantities, and flags deletions — so the QS can turn around a revision in hours, not days.

Accessible to every QS

Enterprise BIM tools are priced for large organisations. QSKing is priced for the individual practitioner and small QS firm — the people who do most of the quantity surveying work.
