- This is fun to see. Some of my family are Division 10 contractors: their GCs love them because they spot design coordination and code issues early and keep the project from getting derailed. Bringing that to the entire project is a serious lifesaver.

- What kind of system to you have for parsing symbology?
Do you check anything like cross discipline coordination (e.g. online searching specification data for parts on drawings like mechanical units and detecting mismatch with electrical spec), or it wholly within 1 trades code at a time?
edit: there's info that answers this on the website. It seems limited to the common ones (e.g. elec vs arch), which makes sense.

- The bathroom height example in your video is really interesting (checking the bathroom height above the toilet against building code), how does it know when to check drawings against code provisions and how does it know which code to look at?

- Maybe this is saying the quiet part out loud: how do you deal with bogus specs that designers end up not caring about since they're copy pasted? Is it just mission accomplished when you point out a potential difficulty?
- I love this!
Stupid question:
Would BIM solve these issues? I know northern Europe are somewhat advanced in that direction.
What kind of digitalization pace do you see in the US?
- I’m sure commissioning engineers would have a field day with this. Have you considered use cases on the larger owner’s side of things? As an owner’s rep I can definitely see value here at an SD and DD level, especially if the owner has a decently sized Facilities or commissioning team.
- Are you doing code checks for structural issues? If so, how do you deal with licensing on common code orgs, such as ASCE?

- Is the pay as you go model % based or project sized? I've had issues with conflicts of interest of being lean vs not. It's hard to sell on % based revenue.
Also who is this targetted at? Subcontractors, GC, design?
- How does your system do with hand-drawn plans from an old-school architect? Is reliable OCR and line reading dependent on CAD output plans?

- When I upload my drawing set, how often should I expect it to hallucinate? And how much of the real stuff does it flag?
- "an AI “plan checker”"
do you have some public benchmark for how many issues you can find?
how does this work behind the scenes?

- Not shade, and it's a small thing, but why do you list your investors as social proof here?
Isn't the target persona someone who'd be at best indifferent, and at worst distrustful, of a tech product that leads with how many people invested in it? Especially vs the explanation and actual testimonials you're pushing below the fold to show that?
