Preconstruction Impact at Scale
Trusted by construction teams worldwide. Powered by our proprietary AI model trained on construction drawings.
Every drawing detail matters
Our proprietary AI, trained specifically on construction drawings, cross-references every page to detect coordination conflicts, code compliance gaps, and design errors with precise page locations and severity ratings.
Purpose-Built Construction AI
Our proprietary model analyzes your drawings across 10+ issue categories
Procore & Autodesk Integration
Pull drawings directly and push detected issues as RFIs with one click
Precise Issue Location
Every issue pinpointed with page coordinates, severity, and category
Got questions?
Everything you need to know about AI-powered drawing analysis.
Upload your PDF drawings and our proprietary AI, trained specifically on construction drawings, analyzes every page for coordination conflicts, code compliance issues, structural concerns, MEP clashes, and 6 other categories. Issues are returned with precise page locations, severity ratings, and detailed descriptions.
Helonic detects 10 categories of issues: coordination conflicts, code compliance violations, missing information, structural concerns, MEP clashes, fire safety gaps, accessibility issues, constructability problems, dimension discrepancies, and QA/QC items. Each issue includes a severity rating (low, medium, high) and exact page coordinates.
Connect your Procore or Autodesk account with one click via OAuth. Pull drawings directly from your projects, no manual uploading needed. Once issues are detected, you can push them as RFIs back to Procore or Autodesk with a single click, complete with issue details and page references.
Our proprietary model, trained specifically on construction drawings, achieves 95%+ accuracy. A quality gate filters out false positives, and each issue includes a confidence score. The model improves continuously as more drawings are analyzed.
Construction rework costs the U.S. industry $31 billion annually. The average RFI costs $1,080 to process and takes 10–15 days to resolve. Our customers estimate $2M+ in savings by catching issues in preconstruction rather than in the field, following the industry 1-10-100 Rule.
Helonic accepts PDF construction drawings, the standard format used across the industry. Simply upload your PDFs directly or pull them from your connected Procore or Autodesk projects. There is no limit on page count or file size.
Drawing-review breakdowns, field lessons, and research for construction teams.
Practical insights from thousands of construction drawings, coordination failures, code changes, and the preconstruction strategies that are actually moving the needle.

What we've been writing
The Preconstruction Meeting Is Too Late to Start Drawing Review
The kickoff meeting should confirm known drawing risks, not discover them for the first time. Better review before kickoff gives the team a cleaner agenda.
Read articleDocument ControlSheet Index Drift Is a Construction Risk, Not a Formatting Problem
When the sheet index, title blocks, addenda, and issued PDFs stop agreeing, teams lose confidence in which drawings actually govern the work.
Read articleRenovationPhased Renovations Fail When Temporary Life Safety Is Treated as Notes
Occupied renovation drawings need temporary egress, alarms, barriers, sprinkler coverage, and shutdown sequencing coordinated as buildable systems.
Read articleSubmittalsMaterial Substitutions Change Drawings Even When No One Updates the Drawings
A substitution can change dimensions, loads, clearances, ratings, installation sequence, and maintenance access long after the drawings looked coordinated.
Read articleTechnologyScan-to-BIM Does Not Eliminate Existing-Condition Risk
Reality capture improves renovation planning, but scans still need drawing review, assumptions tracking, and trade coordination before construction starts.
Read articleQualityInspection Readiness Starts in the Drawings
Failed inspections often trace back to missing access, unclear details, unresolved code notes, and system interfaces that should have been reviewed earlier.
