AI-powered QA/QC review for preconstruction drawings and specs
AI platform that reviews construction drawing sets, specifications, and GMP documents across architectural, structural, MEP, and civil disciplines to flag coordination, constructability, and compliance issues before they become RFIs or change orders.
Why This Tool Exists
Manual peer review of architectural, structural, MEP, and civil drawing sets before construction typically takes 3-6 weeks and, per LightTable, catches only about 30% of the design errors that would otherwise trigger a change order — leaving the rest to surface as costly RFIs and rework once construction is underway.
Developers, architects, and general contractors drag and drop drawing sets, specifications, checklists, and GMP documents into LightTable; its AI parses and cross-references them across 35+ construction scopes, surfacing a prioritized, cost-ranked issue list within an average of 24 hours (full review in 3-5 days), with expert human validation layered on top of the AI findings before delivery. LightTable claims to catch roughly 70% of change-order-triggering design errors, versus about 30% for human-only review.
