Private beta opening 2027.
BuildCompass reviews architectural plan sets for measurable code, accessibility, egress, and QA/QC issues before submission. The next version is built around scale-based drawing measurement, sheet-linked findings, and visual overlays for conditions like door clearances, restroom clearances, corridor widths, accessible routes, and egress geometry.
Built for DD/CD and pre-submittal QA/QC workflows.
A measured condition is flagged for project-team confirmation against the selected review rule.
What it checks
Measurement-backed review for architectural PDFs, focused on the conditions that are expensive to miss late in DD/CD and pre-submittal QA/QC.
Designed to review door conditions with measured drawing evidence and sheet-linked context.
Built around scale-based restroom geometry checks where plans provide enough evidence.
Focused on measurable route width conditions, obstructions, and evidence overlays.
Designed to connect egress geometry to review logic before permit submission.
Reviews drawing, tag, and schedule evidence for coordination issues that need attention.
Supports firm-specific review workflows alongside code, accessibility, and egress checks.
Built for plan-review contexts where accessibility, egress, and technical QA/QC carry high risk.
Why measurement matters
Most AI review tools can read notes, schedules, and code tables. BuildCompass is being built to go further: using user-confirmed scale, drawing geometry, and rule-specific review logic to verify measurable plan conditions directly from architectural PDFs.
A measured condition is flagged for project-team confirmation against the selected review rule.
Evidence-first review
Every finding is designed to connect back to the drawing sheet, source note, schedule, dimension, or measured overlay used to support it. BuildCompass is not a black-box code opinion tool - it is built to show where each review item came from.
A finding has enough drawing, schedule, note, dimension, or measured overlay evidence to support it.
The drawings indicate a condition that should be reviewed by the project team.
The sheet set does not provide enough usable evidence for a supported determination.
Built for firms
BuildCompass is designed for architects, technical directors, QA/QC leads, project managers, and firms working through DD/CD and pre-submittal review. It is not a municipal permitting portal, estimator, or generic PDF chatbot.
Pre-submittal review
Internal QA/QC support
Healthcare/accessibility/egress-sensitive projects
Review before senior technical review or permit submission
Private beta waitlist
Request early access for your firm and tell us which plan-review conditions matter most in your workflow. Pilot conversations will focus on measurement-backed architectural PDFs, sheet-linked evidence, and visual overlays for pre-submittal QA/QC.
Trust and data handling
Files are not used to train AI
NDA available for pilot firms
Private project review
Drawing evidence linked to outputs
Human professional judgment remains final
Built for pre-submittal QA/QC, not AHJ replacement
