AI construction document analysis and Q&A

Ask a plain question about the project — what the ceiling height is in the great room, what flooring is scheduled in the primary suite, whether a beam size was ever specified — and get an answer quoted from the sheet it came from.

The set already contains the answer

Most preconstruction questions are not hard questions. They are findable answers buried in a 90-sheet PDF that takes twenty minutes to search. Multiply that by a dozen questions a day across a pipeline and the search time becomes the job.

Intelligence indexes the whole set — drawings, schedules, general notes, specifications — and answers questions against it directly.

Grounded answers only

  • Relevance ranking

    Sheets are ranked for the question so the answer is drawn from the pages that actually address it.

  • Verbatim quotes

    Supporting text is quoted exactly and verified character-for-character against the source sheet before it is shown.

  • Clickable citations

    Every citation jumps to the sheet and highlights the evidence in the viewer.

  • Honest gaps

    If the set does not answer the question, that is the answer — and it is usually an RFI.

What people actually ask it

What is scheduled for the mudroom floor. Whether the structural set shows a header at the rear opening. Which sheets reference the elevator. What the specified window manufacturer is. Whether any note addresses the retaining wall drainage. Where the electrical panel is located.

The value is not novelty — it is that the answer arrives with a page number, so nobody has to trust it blindly and nobody has to re-search the set to confirm it.

Frequently asked

Does it make things up?
Answers are constrained to text found in your uploaded set, and quotes are verified against the source before display. When the set does not contain the answer, it says so.
Can it compare drawings across disciplines?
Yes — the index covers the whole set, so questions that span architectural, structural and MEP sheets are answered from all of them.
