§ 0For architecture firms

Spend your studio’s hours designing, not chasing consultants and permits.

Proposals, consultant coordination, submittals, and permit packets pull your principals away from the work they are best at. A supervised AI Team can assemble and track that information work, while design decisions stay entirely with your architects.

01
§ 1The hidden pain

Today, a person is the glue between every system.

The real work of your firm scatters across inboxes, files, and systems that never agree. Someone holds it together by hand, copying, chasing, and retyping, instead of doing the work you bill for.

  1. RFPs & proposals
  2. Consultant coordination
  3. Submittals
  4. Permit packets
  5. Client presentations
  6. Project status

§ 2The managed role

One supervised role, designed for your workflow.

Principals walk into reviews prepared, with consultant inputs gathered and packets already drafted.

Every sensitive action stops at a human. AI prepares the work. Your professionals decide. Edit rate is the share of AI-prepared work your reviewers change before approving.
§ 3Where AI belongs

Safety draws the line.

  • Assembling proposal and RFP responses from past work and templates
  • Coordinating and chasing consultant inputs and submissions
  • Drafting permit and document packets for review
  • Turning site visits and meetings into structured action items

§ 3.1Where it does not

These stay human. The AI Team never crosses them, no matter how routine the request looks.

  • Any design or aesthetic decision
  • Stamping or issuing drawings
  • Sending client-facing work without a principal’s sign-off

§ 4The outcome

Your people review complete work, instead of assembling it.

Principals walk into reviews prepared, with consultant inputs gathered and packets already drafted.

Before

A person stitches together rfps & proposals, consultant coordination, submittals, and chases the rest by hand.

After

The Studio Coordinator prepares it under permission and review. Your principal architect approves, and the record is logged.
