ComparisonRevailo vs STACK
A fair, side-by-side look at how Revailo’s purpose-built masonry estimating compares with STACK—and where each one fits.
The short version. Revailo is the better choice when masonry is your business, not just one of many trades you bid. If you need automatic wall and opening detection, masonry-specific assemblies like grout cells, vertical rebar schedules, bond beams, and corner assemblies, plus 3D visualization to catch errors before they hit the field, Revailo is purpose-built for that work. STACK is the stronger pick if you bid across multiple trades and want one mature, general-purpose platform.

Why masonry teams choose Revailo
Purpose-built for masonry
Revailo speaks the language of masonry out of the box: CMU and brick assemblies, grout cells, vertical rebar schedules, bond beams, and corner assemblies are first-class, not something you rebuild from generic templates every project.
AI wall and opening detection
Revailo's deep-learning takeoffs detect walls and openings from your drawings, cutting manual tracing on the repetitive masonry work that drives most of a wall takeoff.
3D visualization to catch errors early
Seeing the structure in 3D helps you verify courses, openings, and quantities before the bid goes out, instead of finding problems on site.
IFC export for masonry workflows
Alongside PDF and Excel, Revailo exports IFC so your masonry takeoff data can move into BIM and downstream construction tools.
Where STACK fits
STACK is a genuinely strong, mature platform, and for many contractors it's the right call. If you're a general contractor or a multi-trade shop bidding concrete, roofing, interiors, sitework, and more, STACK gives you one well-supported cloud tool with flexible measurement types, aerial imagery for sitework, broad assemblies, regional pricing, solid collaboration and markup features, and AI assistance like auto-count and STACK Assist. It has years of refinement, a large user base, and integrations that a broad estimating operation will value. For teams whose work spans far beyond masonry, that breadth is a real advantage that a masonry-specific tool isn't trying to match.
