Custom QA Standards Checking

Your firm has internal QA guidelines, drafting standards, and checklists built from years of experience. AI plan review can check every project against your standards— ensuring consistency across all projects and all team members.

How Custom Standards Checking Works

Upload Your Standards Document

Upload your firm's QA manual, drafting standards PDF, or checklist. This goes into your organization's library for use across all projects.

AI Learns Your Requirements

AI reads your standards and understands requirements like: north arrow required on every plan, 1:50 scale for interior elevations, specific title block format, etc.

Every Project Gets Checked

When you run an AI check, it reviews against both building codes AND your internal standards. Issues from your standards are flagged just like code violations.

What Custom Standards Can Include

Firms have uploaded standards documents covering requirements like:

  • Drafting standards: North arrow and scale on every plan, specific line weights, layer naming conventions
  • Title block requirements: Project number format, required signatures, revision tracking
  • Keynote standards: Consistent keynote numbering, required keynote tags, formatting
  • Scale requirements: 1:50 for interior elevations, 1:100 for site plans
  • QA checklists: Items to verify before each submittal phase
  • Common mistakes: Issues the firm has caught on past projects

One firm has a 200-page best practices manual that AI now checks against every project.
