Order lists from your BIM model: complete, every project, every time.

No more forgotten accessories, no more items assembled from memory. Koto turns your model into a complete order list, including the parts your model never showed, and runs it automatically on every new project.

Where order lists actually break down

Most order lists still come out of the model by hand. Someone opens the BIM file, counts elements, and retypes them into Excel. The rules for what belongs on the list, and what doesn't, live in that person's head. Skip one accessory or one box of fasteners and nobody notices until the truck is already on site.

Every order list is rebuilt by hand in Excel, project after project.
What belongs on the list, and what doesn't, lives in one person's head, not in a system.
A one-off IFC export is not a complete, repeatable order list built to your rules.

What belongs on a complete order list?

The last items on this list never sit in the model, and that is exactly what gets forgotten.

Framing and board material, counted straight from the model

Fixings: screws, brackets and anchors per connection

Foils and membranes around openings, corners and connections

Sealants and other consumables per element

Accessories per element type, the way your factory uses them

A safety margin, set by your own rules

How a complete order list actually gets built

Connect your BIM model

Koto reads your model through IFC, the open standard, or imports Vertex BD files natively. Revit models come in through IFC. No lock-in to one CAD package.

Set your rules once

Define, per element type, what belongs on the order list, including what the model doesn't show: accessories, fasteners, consumables. These rules live in a pipeline, not in someone's memory.

Koto builds the list

The pipeline turns the model into a complete order list, a bill of quantities, and part and cutting lists as data output, following the exact same rules every time.

It runs automatically from here

Configure once, then it runs automatically on every project. Export to Excel or CSV in your own column format, or push straight into Odoo.

Watch: from BIM model to order list

See it on your own model

Koto runs live at construction companies today. In a demo we take your own model, run it through a pipeline and you watch your own order list come out. Real output, not slides.

Works with what you already have

Koto reads the model you already build. No new CAD, no new ERP, no lock-in.

Output in your own column formats. Your data stays yours: switch CAD or ERP, and your Koto pipelines keep working.

Questions about order lists from BIM

Plenty of what belongs on an order list is never modelled: screws, brackets, sealant, packaging. Koto adds these through rules and recipes configured per element type, so they show up on every list without anyone remembering to add them by hand.

Koto imports Vertex BD files natively and reads any model through IFC, the open standard, which covers Revit and most other BIM software. You keep working in your own tools; nothing about your CAD setup needs to change.

The rules for your order list, what counts, what doesn't, which accessories belong where, are configured once per company. After that, every new project runs the same pipeline automatically. Most of the setup work is describing rules you already apply by hand today.

Order lists, bills of quantities, part lists and cutting lists as data output, in Excel or CSV using your own column layout, or pushed directly into Odoo.

Not by checking harder, but by letting the list get built from the model according to fixed rules. The same rules run on every project, including for items that are not modelled.
