Blueprints AI is AI that generates code-compliant construction documents from plain-language descriptions, sketches, or existing design files. Architects, developers, and design-build firms use it to compress drafting timelines from months to hours while keeping licensed professionals in control of final review and sealing. ### How do I start a project with Blueprints AI? You begin by setting up your Knowledge Base. Upload your firm's standards and past projects so the agent can tailor outputs to your style. Once your firm profile is set up, starting a new project takes minutes, describe it in plain language and upload any inputs you have, whether sketches, site photos, PDFs, or existing drawings. ### How long does onboarding take? Onboarding takes about two weeks. We fine-tune the model to your firm during that time, learning from your past projects, the project types you work on, your local jurisdiction comments, and your company standards, so the documents it generates match how your team actually works before you rely on it in production. ### Can Blueprints AI follow my firm's drawing standards? Yes. Every firm starts with uploading your standards and past work: title blocks, sheet layouts, detail libraries, naming conventions, and drawing preferences. From that point on, documents the agent generates match your firm's established style. Output looks like your firm's work, not generic AI drafting. ### Do I need CAD or BIM experience to use Blueprints AI? No, and that's the point. You communicate your design vision through conversation, sketches, or files you already have. The AI handles all technical drafting, building code compliance, and construction document formatting automatically. ### Who is Blueprints AI built for? Blueprints AI is designed for developers, architecture firms, and design-build firms who want to generate code-compliant construction documents faster and focus more on business development, creativity and project delivery. ### Is our project data secure? Yes. All project files are encrypted at rest and in transit. Your project data is used only for your company and is never shared with other users. Enterprise engagements include on-premise deployment options for firms with strict data governance requirements. ### What types of projects does Blueprints AI handle? Residential (single-family, multi-family, ADUs), commercial (data centers, mixed-use, retail, offices, preschools), and light industrial projects. Our AI is trained on building codes for all 50 US states and major municipalities. Repeatable project types, template-based work, and projects similar to your past builds benefit most, since the agent applies what it has already learned from your Knowledge Base. ### What can I upload to start a project? - Images: hand sketches, site photos, reference images - PDFs: existing drawings, zoning documents, style references - Point cloud data from laser scans - Plain text: just describe the project No file conversion needed. Upload what you have and the agent works from it. ### Which disciplines does Blueprints AI cover? Architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, Title 24 energy compliance, fire and life safety, and interior sheets, coordinated in one set. Civil and landscape generation is available on Enterprise plans, and you can draft any sheet manually on every plan. ### Does Blueprints AI understand building codes? Yes. Blueprints AI is trained on the International Building Code (IBC), the International Fire Code (IFC) and NFPA standards, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and a growing list of U.S. municipal codes, and automatically applies them to generated documents. Because planning and zoning codes vary widely and change often, we recommend finalizing those decisions during your design phase. You can upload your local jurisdiction's code for the agent to cross-check outputs against your specific regional requirements. ### How complete are the AI-generated blueprints? On average, 92% of components in a generated document set require no revision. The remaining components typically need minor adjustments, not full rework. A licensed architect or engineer should always review final documents before submission, both for liability protection and to ensure design intent is preserved. ### Can I use AI-generated blueprints for permit submission? Yes, with a licensed architect or engineer's review and seal. Blueprints AI accelerates drafting but doesn't replace professional responsibility. ### Who owns the intellectual property for AI-generated outputs? You do. You or your firm retain ownership of your project outputs. Blueprints AI serves as a tool and does not claim ownership of your generated work. ### Can Blueprints AI handle revisions? Yes. You have two options. Export to CAD or BIM format and edit the files directly in your existing tools, or redline and mark up the drawings, upload them back into the chat, and let the agent handle the revisions for you. You can also simply tell the agent what to change in plain language ("move the kitchen to the south wall," "add a second bathroom," "increase ceiling height to 12 feet"). The agent maintains project context and updates the entire construction document set automatically. ### Does Blueprints AI replace my architects? No. Blueprints AI eliminates repetitive documentation work, the 70% of architecture hours spent on CD drafting (AIA 2023 Firm Survey). Your team shifts from drafting to design, client relationships, and licensed review before submission. ### Who reviews and stamps the output? A licensed architect or engineer must review all documents and take professional responsibility before permit submission. Stamping is required only where the jurisdiction or project type calls for it. Simple projects in relaxed jurisdictions often don't need one. Blueprints AI produces the drafting; a licensed professional certifies compliance. Enterprise engagements include review and certification by partner architects and engineers. ### How does Blueprints AI subscription pricing work? Plans are billed monthly or yearly; yearly saves up to 20%. Contact our team for pricing. Eligible firms on a yearly plan also receive Even G2 smart glasses and the Even R1 ring. ### Can I try Blueprints AI before subscribing? We currently don't offer a free trial. Sign up to contact our team for a live walkthrough. ### Do you offer enterprise or custom solutions? Yes. We work with firms that need white-label deployments, dedicated infrastructure, custom integrations, or tailored workflows built around how your team already operates. If you're generating high project volume or have specific requirements that go beyond our standard plans, we're open to a conversation. Sign up here and mention "Enterprise" or "Custom solutions" in the form. ### What's your refund or cancellation policy? You can cancel your subscription anytime. Access remains until the end of your billing period. ### How long does generation take? Timing varies by project complexity and current server load. During peak hours, your request may enter a queue. Compare this to weeks and months for traditional manual drafting, Blueprints AI delivers your projects up to 10x faster. Times are illustrative, not guaranteed, and depend on model and software version, plan, and project type and complexity. ### Do I need training to use it? No formal training required. Our goal is to make the agent as easy to use as possible, without the hundreds of buttons, menus, and shortcuts that come with traditional design tools. Most customers can easily start their first session, because the interface is a conversation, the format most people already know. ### What if the AI doesn't understand my design intent? It happens. You can refine your instructions conversationally ("No, I meant the north wall, not south"), upload additional reference images. Our AI learns from feedback, so unclear cases help improve future performance. ### What support is included? All plans include tutorials, documentation, and in-app issue reporting and feature requests. Optional workshops are available for Pro+ customers and larger teams. ### Do I need special liability insurance? Most professional liability policies cover AI-assisted work when a licensed architect or engineer seals the drawings. Confirm specifics with your carrier. ### How is Blueprints AI different from ChatGPT or Midjourney? General-purpose AI tools aren't trained on building codes, zoning regulations, or construction standards. They can't generate code-compliant construction documents ready for permit submission. Blueprints AI is purpose-built, trained on millions of domain specific datasets. ### Why not just use a CAD or BIM plugin? Because a plugin only repaints the walls. Behind them, CAD and BIM are decades-old software, and the plugin still needs a trained drafter to walk it through every step. Blueprints AI was built from scratch around the experience instead: quick, collaborative, and easy to use, so the software gets out of your way. Behind that sits an AI engine that does the drafting itself. You describe the project, the agent delivers the documents. --- # Features: AI Construction Document Agent https://www.blueprints-ai.com/features Blueprints AI generates code-compliant construction documents in minutes: architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, Title 24 energy compliance, fire and life safety, and interior sheets.

Professionals engage the way each client needs: design help from the start, in-app consulting and markup with the full project history in one place, or serving as architect or engineer of record. Engagements that involve a seal as AOR or EOR are structured to meet state licensing board requirements for responsible charge (engineers) and responsible control (architects). Applying is free; listing stays free until the first project won through the network, then an annual fee applies. Professionals set their own hourly rate and clients engage them directly. ## How it works 1. Apply and get verified: submit license details (number, state, and expiration per licensed state); every application is checked against state licensing board records. 2. Get listed in the directory: verified professionals get a profile with discipline, location, license number, and project focus that customers contact directly. 3. Engage the way the client needs: design help, in-app consulting and markup, or serving as AOR or EOR, structured to meet state licensing board requirements. ## Who can join AOR (Architect of Record): - Registered Architects (RA) EOR (Engineer of Record): - Structural Engineers (PE, SE) - Mechanical Engineers (PE) - Electrical Engineers (PE) - Plumbing Engineers (PE) Apply at https://www.blueprints-ai.com/pro-network#apply ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is the Blueprints AI Pro Network? A network of US-licensed architects and engineers working with Blueprints AI customers. Developers and contractors using Blueprints AI engage network professionals for design help, in-app consulting and markup, and to serve as the architect or engineer of record when the project needs one. Verified professionals get a directory profile that customers contact directly. ### Who can apply to the Pro Network? Architects and engineers holding an active US license in any of the 50 states who can serve as AOR (Architect of Record) or EOR (Engineer of Record). Engineering disciplines include structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing. Individual practitioners and firms can both apply. ### How does license verification work? You provide your license number and expiration date for each state where you hold a license. There is nothing to scan or upload: we check the application against the issuing state licensing boards' public records before your profile is listed. ### When do professionals join a project? Whenever the client needs you. Some clients want design help from the start, others bring you in to consult and mark up as the agent drafts, and others need review at defined points. Engagements that involve your seal are structured to meet state licensing board requirements. ### Am I the architect or engineer of record? When the project needs one, yes. Those engagements are structured to meet state licensing board requirements for responsible charge (engineers) and responsible control (architects). Other engagements are consulting, markup, or design help only, with no seal involved. ### Is it free to join? Yes. Applying is free, and your listing stays free until you win your first project through the network. After your first project, an annual fee applies to keep your listing active. --- # About Blueprints AI https://www.blueprints-ai.com/about Blueprints AI builds AI that turns architectural designs into code-compliant construction documents in hours, not weeks.
