For architecture & engineering firms

The intelligence layerfor AEC firms.

One system across the whole project. Gridline reads your models, drawings, specifications, and the governing code, then answers questions, runs the reviews, and drafts the documents, with the source attached to everything it tells you.

YouHave we detailed this curtain wall mullion before?
Gridline
Yes, three times. The closest match is The Foundry: a thermally broken 2.5″ × 6″ mullion, anchors at 5′-0″ o.c. It is already in your standards. Want it dropped into the open view?

In the model

Run the check where you are drawing.

Gridline docks in Revit and reads the view you have open. Run a check and the findings come back in context, each one pointing at the element it belongs to, what was measured, and the section that governs it.

Ask Gridline

Ask it, then check its work.

Set the jurisdiction, ask in plain language, and get an answer with its sources attached. Open one and you land on the page it came from, with the passage highlighted where it sits.

The platform

One system, every phase of the job.

Gridline runs from pre-design through construction administration, on the same project evidence the whole way, and shortens time to delivery across the entire process. It carries the constraints, the code, and the precedent for you, and leaves the design work itself to you.

01
Pre-design
  • Code and zoning analysis
  • Precedent search
  • Feasibility checks
02
Schematic design
  • Constraints kept visible
  • Precedent on demand
  • Code questions answered
03
Design development
  • In-model code checks
  • Clearance and egress
  • Specification drafting
04
Construction documentation
  • Sheet set review
  • Compliance audit
  • Deliverable generation
05
Construction administration
  • RFI drafting
  • Submittal review
  • Client decisions
Everything that runs on it
Ask Gridline

Ask across the model, the sheet set, the specifications, and the governing code. Every answer comes back with its evidence attached.

Gridline for Revit

A native panel docked in Revit 2025 and 2026 that reads the view you have open and writes to the model only on your command.

Code and plan review

Audit the model and the set against IBC, ADA, and your jurisdiction. Every finding names the section that governs it.

The review queue

Findings, proposals, and open questions in one place: assign them, explain them, resolve them, and keep the trail of who decided what.

Specifications

Draft and review spec sections and clauses, kept aligned with the drawings and documents they are supposed to match.

RFIs and submittals

Draft RFI responses from project evidence, and compare submittals against the specification with the disposition on the record.

Documents and deliverables

Generate project documents from your templates and the project's own evidence, then route them through approval.

Firm knowledge

The details, products, and precedent from everything you have built, reusable on the next job with their provenance intact.

Workflows and approvals

Put recurring reviews on a schedule, and keep a human decision in front of anything consequential the system wants to do.

Client decisions

Share a scoped, read-only view of the evidence with a client or consultant and collect their decision on the record.

Issue readiness

Track what is blocking an issue, what changed since the last one, and whether the set is actually ready to go out.

Where your team already works

Reach Gridline from Slack and Microsoft Teams, or connect your own tools to it over MCP.

Reviews

Caught before the reviewer sees it.

01 Workflows

Write the check once, run it anywhere

The checks your firm actually runs are not generic. Write one as a named workflow, scope it, and it joins the firm library: your wording, your standards, saved. Anyone can run it from the browser or from inside Revit and get the same answer.

  • Save a prompt as a named, scoped workflow
  • Run it from the browser or from inside Revit
  • Shared with the firm, not stuck on one desk

02 Before the reviewer

Code and accessibility checks, before review

Egress widths, door clearances, turning radii, running slopes. Gridline audits the model against the governing section and puts the failing number next to the required one, while the fix is still a drag instead of a resubmittal.

  • Code, egress, and accessibility checks
  • Every finding cites the governing section
  • Runs on the live model, not an export

Principles

Cited, gated, and yours.

Cited.

Every answer carries its sources: the sheet, the section, the spec, the page. Open any one of them in a click and check the work yourself.

Gated.

Gridline proposes, you approve. No write reaches a model or a document without your sign-off, and every run keeps the trail of what it read and what it wants to change.

Yours.

Your models, documents, and standards stay your firm's. Nothing has to leave the tools you already work in for Gridline to answer.

Control

You stay in control.

You are the one who seals the drawings. Every answer can be traced, every change is yours to approve, and your work stays inside your firm.

  • Approval before any write

    Model edits, document drafts, and submittal dispositions all queue for review. The approval gate is in the product, not a setting you have to remember to switch on.

  • A source on every claim

    Findings cite the governing section. Answers cite the sheet, document version, and page they came from, and the original page opens next to the answer.

  • Single sign-on for the practice

    Your firm's identity provider governs who gets in, and access to a project follows the team on that project.

  • Your standards stay yours

    Details, specifications, and precedent stay your firm's material. They are used to answer your questions, on your projects.

Getting started

How a pilot starts.

No data migration project, no twelve-week onboarding. The first run happens on the call.

01
We run it on your set

Bring one model and a sample sheet set to the call. We run the checks live, on your project, not a demo file.

02
Pilot on one live project

Gridline docks into Revit for the team on that job, indexes the set, and starts answering and checking in context.

03
Roll it out to the practice

Your standards, precedent, and jurisdiction map carry across. What Gridline learns on the first project is there for the next.

See what it finds in your set.

Book a demo and we will run Gridline on one of your own projects: a model and a sample set, live. Most firms see their first real finding within the hour.
