Ritningstolken will exhibit at Elmässan – bringing their unique AI solution. We had a chat with CEO Fredrik Rikelius.
Ritningstolken brings AI to Elmässan for a true “wow” experience
Ritningstolken is an AI-driven SaaS platform that automates symbol counting and length measurement on electrical drawings. With this technology, estimators can avoid repetitive tasks and instead focus on quality assurance and optimization.
“We are currently in an intense launch phase. We’re running pilots with several leading installation companies, developing features based on user feedback, and preparing for our broad market introduction this fall,” says Fredrik Rikelius, CEO of Ritningstolken.
He sees Elmässan as the obvious event to participate in.
“Elmässan is unique because it brings the entire industry together in one place. For us, it’s a chance to showcase what the future of quantity surveying looks like, but also to listen to customer needs and build long-term relationships.”
At their booth, visitors will get to try Ritningstolken in real time.
“You simply upload a drawing and get automated quantity calculations and reports in just a few minutes. The system identifies symbols, measures cabling, and compiles results instantly. We’ll also showcase new features, like linking lighting fixture schedules directly to the quantity list,” Rikelius explains.
For the electrical industry, AI can be a major game-changer.
“AI can free up huge amounts of time in estimating work, while also increasing precision and reducing the risk of errors. Material orders become more accurate and project planning more efficient. Younger team members can also get up to speed faster, as the system guides and supports them,” says Rikelius.
Looking ahead, he sees a clear trend.
“I’m convinced that AI will soon be a natural part of quantity surveying, estimating, project planning, and procurement. Companies that adopt it early will gain a clear competitive edge—in efficiency and profitability. Ritningstolken is just the beginning of that journey.”
Ritningstolken stands out from many other digital tools.
“Our focus is on being extremely specialized. We build for estimators and project managers, with their daily workflow in mind. We combine advanced computer vision technology with an easy-to-use experience. And because every user correction improves the model through reinforcement learning, the system gets smarter every day,” he explains.
Like many exhibitors, Fredrik is most excited about face-to-face interactions.
“We look forward to meeting the industry in person and seeing reactions when visitors try Ritningstolken. It’s always amazing to see how impressed people are when something that used to take hours now takes just minutes.”
Finally, Fredrik sends a warm invitation:
“Stop by our booth! Bring a PDF drawing and try for yourself how quickly and easily it can be interpreted with AI. We promise a real wow moment.”
Meet Ritningstolken at booth M:15 at Elmässan, October 15–16!
