Getting Started

Framework is an AI-powered document intelligence platform built for construction professionals. It lets you upload your project documents — specifications, drawings, RFIs, submittals — and instantly search them using plain English questions. Every answer comes with citations you can click to jump directly to the source page.

Think of it as a project brain: instead of hunting through hundreds of PDFs to find a specific concrete strength requirement or verify an RFI response, you simply ask and get an accurate, cited answer in seconds.

Who is Framework for?

Framework is designed for the people who spend their days working with construction documents:

  • Project Managers — Track decisions, verify compliance, and manage documentation across the project lifecycle.
  • Project Engineers — Quickly find specification requirements, manage RFI responses, and coordinate between design and field teams.
  • Superintendents — Get field-ready answers on construction methods, materials, and installation requirements without leaving the job site.
  • Estimators — Cross-reference specifications and drawings to build accurate takeoffs and verify scope.

Core Features

Ask questions in plain English and get precise answers pulled directly from your project documents. Framework reads and understands your specs, drawings, and other PDFs so you don’t have to dig through them manually.

Cited Answers You Can Trust

Every response includes citations — click any citation to jump directly to the exact page in the source document. No guessing, no hallucinations. You can always verify the answer yourself.

Transparent AI Process

Framework shows you exactly what it’s doing: which documents it’s searching, which sections it’s reading, and how it arrived at its answer. You’re never left wondering where information came from.

Document Management

Upload PDFs and Framework automatically categorizes them — specifications, drawings, submittals, RFIs, and more. Browse your documents in an organized tree view and open any document in the built-in PDF viewer.

AI Memory

Framework remembers context about your project across conversations. You can view and edit what it remembers, giving you control over the AI’s understanding of your project.

Notes

Create and organize project notes with a rich text editor. Keep your thoughts, meeting notes, and project decisions alongside your documents.

How It Works

The core workflow is simple:

  1. Upload — Drag and drop your project PDFs into Framework.
  2. Ask — Type a question in plain English, like “What’s the concrete strength for foundations?”
  3. Get Answers — Framework searches your documents, finds the relevant information, and gives you a cited answer.
  4. Verify — Click any citation to jump to the exact page in the source document.
