Can AI compare two drawing revisions?
Yes. Nomic can compare drawing revisions such as 60%, 90%, IFC, and construction sets to identify changed details, added or removed notes, unclouded revisions, and discrepancies that need reviewer attention.
Automated Drawing Review
Catch errors in construction drawings and plans before they become costly rework. Nomic's Drawing Review agent checks every page of a drawing set or plan package against your firm's QA/QC standards and delivers cited PDF markups—catching issues while engineers design and the moment construction teams ingest drawings.
Consistent quality every time
Every sheet gets the same thorough review against the same standards. No more variation between reviewers or checks quietly skipped under deadline pressure.
Catch errors before rework
Find issues during design or at ingestion, when they cost hours to fix—not in the field, where one missed detail turns into weeks of rework, schedule slips, and change orders.
Fits your existing review process
Findings export to Excel, JSON, or PDF markups that drop straight into Bluebeam or your current QA/QC workflow. No new tools to learn, no process to rebuild.
The problem
Why manual drawing and plan review breaks down
Manual drawing review and plan review are slow, inconsistent, and the first things cut when deadlines slip. Design teams spend hours flipping through hundreds of sheets, cross-referencing QA/QC standards, and marking up PDFs by hand. Contractors and estimators reviewing plans face the same bottleneck. Issues that slip past review get caught in the field—where a single missed detail turns into weeks of rework, blown budgets, and frustrated owners.
The solution
Nomic Drawing Review
Nomic's Drawing Review agent checks every page of a drawing set or plan package against your firm's standards and delivers a clear list of cited findings—each one linked to the exact spot on the drawing and the specific standard it breaks. Whether your team calls it drawing review or plan review, Nomic marks up PDFs the same way a senior reviewer would, so engineers catch errors during design and construction teams catch them at ingestion. Issues surface early, when they cost hours to fix—not in the field, where they cost weeks.
How it works
01
01
Connect your drawings and standards
Sync drawing sets and internal QA/QC standards from Autodesk Construction Cloud or Bentley ProjectWise, tag files in SharePoint or Egnyte, or upload PDFs directly. Bring your firm's own standards document—or start fast with Nomic's built-in QA/QC set to see the workflow end-to-end.
Every page, every standard, every time
Nomic reviews every page of the drawing set against every applicable standard—consistently, in parallel, and without the shortcuts that creep in when deadlines get tight. Whether the set is ten sheets or a thousand, every drawing gets the same thorough check.
Cited PDF markups you can trust
Every finding is verified before it lands in your review table, with a link to the exact location on the drawing, a clear summary, the standard section it breaks, a severity, and a discipline tag. Markups drop straight into Bluebeam or export to Excel or JSON to plug into your existing QA/QC process.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about this workflow.
Can AI find cross-sheet inconsistencies?
Yes. Nomic reviews drawing sets across sheets, schedules, details, notes, and references to flag inconsistencies such as mismatched callouts, missing details, conflicting dimensions, and coordination issues between disciplines.
Can Nomic export markups to Bluebeam?
Yes. Nomic can produce PDF markups that fit into Bluebeam review workflows, along with structured exports such as Excel or JSON for QA/QC tracking and issue triage.
Can firms use their own standards?
Yes. Firms can connect internal QA/QC checklists, design standards, drawing production rules, and discipline-specific review guidance so Nomic checks drawings against the same standards your reviewers already use.
How does Nomic avoid missing issues in large drawing sets?
Nomic checks every page in parallel against applicable standards, keeps findings tied to exact drawing locations and source rules, and gives reviewers cited outputs for verification instead of relying on spot checks or memory across hundreds of sheets.
