Terms of Service
Last Updated: 27 September 2026
1. Agreement to Terms
Praevius (praevius.app and app.praevius.app) is operated by Robert Kowalski, trading as BIM Takeoff (“we”, “us”, “our”). By accessing or using Praevius, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not access the service.
2. Description of Service
Praevius is a cloud-based construction programme and cost platform. It runs in a web browser. The service includes:
- Programme module: create and edit construction programmes (Gantt chart, critical path, calendars, baselines and progress); import Microsoft Project (.mpp, .xml), Asta Powerproject (.pp) and Primavera P6 (.xer) files; and export to Microsoft Project XML, Primavera XER, PDF and Excel. Each import and export shows a report of the items that could not be carried across.
- AI assistant: an assistant that reads and edits your programmes and project data from typed or spoken instructions, and answers questions about them. Ordinary edits apply at once and can be undone. Larger or destructive changes are proposed first and run only when you confirm them.
- Voice input: you can speak instructions to the AI assistant instead of typing them. In the web app, speech is converted to text by your browser’s speech recognition service. In the mobile app, speech is converted to text on your device. The mobile app can also read the assistant’s answers aloud.
- Agent access (MCP): you can connect your own AI agent to Praevius over the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with OAuth sign-in. Read access is available on every plan. Write actions need the Professional or Scale plan and your confirmation.
- Cost control module: budget tracking, variance analysis, change orders, progress claims and AI-generated reports, on the Essential plan and above. Schedule of Values is available on the Scale plan only.
- Integrations with third-party services that you choose to connect.
- Data storage and export, subject to the limits of your plan.
The features, limits and quotas of each plan are shown on our Pricing page.
