Code Compliance Review of Drawings
Check drawings against 380+ building codes and standards anywhere you work in Nomic: Nomic agent chat, workflows, the workflow builder, and the API. Get cited answers with specific code references. No more digging through PDFs and standards manuals.
80% faster code checks
What used to take hours of manual research now takes minutes. Get cited answers instantly instead of digging through PDFs.
Catch issues before submittals
Find code violations during design, not during permit review. Avoid costly redesigns and approval delays.
Compliance in every workflow
Stop treating code checks as a separate step. Bring the same cited compliance capability into chat, reviews, custom workflows, and API-driven automation.
The hidden cost of manual code checks
Code compliance is a hidden time sink. Architects spend 15-20% of design time cross-referencing codes across IBC, ADA, NFPA, and local amendments. A single missed requirement can trigger redesigns worth weeks of work. Junior staff lack the experience to catch nuanced violations, while senior architects are stuck doing tedious manual checks instead of high-value design work.
Nomic Compliance Intelligence
Nomic turns code compliance into a capability you bring to any task, not a separate research step. Ask natural language questions like "Does this egress path meet IBC requirements?" to the Nomic agent, enable codes and standards inside a drawing-review or custom workflow, configure jurisdiction in the workflow builder, or call the same capability through the API. Nomic analyzes your design against 380+ codes and standards and returns specific citations, section numbers, and actionable recommendations grounded in the actual code text.

Codes and standards everywhere you work
Turn on codes and standards in the Nomic agent chat bar, inside workflows and the workflow builder, or through the API. Select the relevant jurisdiction once and bring compliance checking to drawing review, research, or any custom task, without leaving the work already in progress.
Check individual sheets or entire drawing sets
Sync drawings from Autodesk Forma or Bentley ProjectWise, tag files in SharePoint or Egnyte, or upload directly. Analyze a specific detail, an entire floor plan, or a complete drawing package. Every response includes the exact code citation, section reference, and clear explanation of requirements.
