The drawing becomes the schedule.

Send us your structural drawings. reads every bar mark, section and note, works out cut lengths, laps, hooks and weights, and hands back a bar bending schedule your site can cut from.

01 — How it reads

It reads the drawing the way your engineer does.

Not a template, not a form to fill. It looks at layers, texts, bar marks, section flags and sheet numbers, and works out what belongs to what.

STEP 01

Drop in the drawings you already have.

DWG or DXF, one sheet or the whole set. Plans, elevations, sections, schedules. No redrawing, no special layers.

02-BEAM-DETAILS.dxf · 4.2 MB
STEP 02

Every bar mark, found.

It reads the texts on the sheet and understands them as steel: count, diameter, spacing, location. 3-Φ20 means three 20 mm bars, wherever it's written.

STEP 03

Sheets that find each other.

A section flag on the elevation is linked to its section detail, even when the detail sits on another sheet. Send them in any order.

Flag A → Section A-A
STEP 04

Asks only when it's unsure.

When a note could mean two things, it asks your engineer one clear question, then remembers the answer for the rest of the project.

STEP 05

Out comes the schedule.

Every bar becomes a row: shape, cut length, number, weight. Each row points back to the line on the drawing it came from.

ONE QUICK QUESTION

Is 2-Φ16 EXTRA (T2) an extra top bar at both supports?

Yes, both endsOnly one

02 — The bend

Every millimetre before the cut.

A stirrup is not 2(a + b). Hooks add length, bends take it back. It does the arithmetic for every bar, so the bar that gets cut is the bar that fits.

2 × (a + b) = 2 × (250 + 450)1,400
+ 2 hooks × 10d (d = 8)+160
− 3 bends × 2d−48

03 — It learns

The first sheet asks. The twelfth already knows.

Every consultant draws differently. It learns how your project is drawn as it goes. Each answer your engineer confirms is kept for that project, so the same question never comes up twice.

Read by itself Asked your engineer Illustration of a typical new project
FIRST

It reads by itself

Layers, texts, bar marks, titles, links between sheets. Everything it can work out, it settles on its own.

THEN

It thinks harder

What it can't settle at a glance, it reasons through with AI, looking at the drawing around it.

ONLY IF NEEDED

It asks your engineer

One clear question, shown right on the drawing. Never a wall of rows to check.

ALWAYS

It remembers

Every confirmed answer becomes how it reads that project from then on. Fewer questions every sheet.

04 — The schedule

A schedule your site can cut from.

Shapes to IS 2502, laps, hooks and bend deductions to SP 34, weights from d²/162. In the Excel format your site already uses.

05 — Your engineer, in charge

Built to work with your engineer. Not to replace them.

It does the counting, the arithmetic and the retyping. Your engineer makes the calls and signs off. Nothing goes to site until a person says yes.

OFF YOUR ENGINEER'S DESKHours of it
  • Retyping every bar mark into Excel

When the drawing changes

A revision should never surprise the cutting yard.

Upload Rev C1 over Rev B. It shows what changed in steel, bar by bar, before a single bar is ordered. Your engineer approves the change, not the whole schedule again.

06 — What's next

Steel is the first trade. Not the last.

The same engine that reads a bar mark can read a pipe run, a conduit or a slab. We started with the hardest one, the bar bending schedule. Every trade in the building is next, and then the site itself, from the sky.

ONE BUILDING · REINFORCEMENT

Reinforcement & BBS

Bar bending schedules read straight from structural drawings.

IN PILOT

Plumbing & drainage

Pipe lengths, fittings and fixtures, counted from the plumbing layout.

COMING NEXT

Electrical & MEP

Conduit runs, cable lengths and points, floor by floor.

ON THE ROADMAP

Concrete & formwork

Volumes and shuttering areas from the same drawings you send for steel.

ON THE ROADMAP

Drone site monitoring

Fly the site, compare what's built with what's drawn, and see progress floor by floor.

ON THE ROADMAP
Be first on the next trade.

Early-access teams shape what we build next, and get it before anyone else.

One drawing. Every trade. From the drawing board to the sky.

Get its schedule back.

We're working with a small group of construction teams before we open up. Pick a sheet from a live project and we'll hand back its bar bending schedule, ready to check against yours.

  1. 01

    Send a drawing

    One structural sheet or a full set, in DWG or DXF.

  2. 02

    We read it

    Bar marks, sections and notes, worked out to cut lengths and weights.

  3. 03

    Check it against yours

    Compare with the schedule you have today. Keep what you find.

This opens an email to our team. Attach a sample drawing if you have one ready.

Your drawings stay private. We use them only to prepare your schedule and never share them.
