AI assistant for architects and drafters

Most often, Alto helps find specific details, check consistency across source materials, prepare open-items overviews, get oriented in an inherited project and draft answers for a client, team or supplier. Instead of manually opening folders and PDFs, the team asks about a concrete issue and gets an answer tied back to source documents.

Technical reports, specifications, bills of quantities, budgets, spreadsheets, text inside drawings, meeting notes and project emails. Alto works across different types of source material, so teams can ask not only about one document, but also about relationships between a report, drawing, budget and communication. The more complete the project context, the better Alto can place the answer in context.

Alto has no fixed limit for project documentation size. It is especially useful on large projects with many technical reports, drawings, budgets, spreadsheets, meeting notes and project emails. On larger projects, documentation can be organized by building, discipline or phase so the team can keep working clearly as new materials are added.

Pricing is determined individually based on company size, number of users and the number of active projects per year. In the discussion, we look at expected document volume, how the team should use Alto and the typical length of projects. For architecture and drafting firms, it also matters whether Alto should support one pilot project or become a regular tool for multiple teams.

You can ask about missing information, differences between a technical report and a bill of quantities, conflicting requirements or items that still need to be verified. Alto can return a review table or a list of points to resolve. It does not replace expert review by the architect or drafter, but it helps prepare the areas the team should focus on before submission.

Yes. For important answers, Alto returns a link to the specific source so the architect or drafter can quickly check the page, document or related material and decide using their own professional judgment. This is especially important for technical values, client requirements, budget items and inconsistencies between multiple sources.

For example: “Where is the roof assembly described?”, “Does the requirement differ between the report and the budget?”, “Which doors require fire resistance?”, “What is missing before submission?” or “Prepare a coordination list for consultants.” Teams also ask about changes between versions, links to client requirements and quick summaries of what needs to be sent onward.
