I love the Blueprint Understanding.

One thing I've been thinking about is if you could use a model like this as the first pass for permitters (Like a GitHub Actions CI/CD) who review blueprints.

Many developers use the regulatory side of various engineering approval processes as a quality control check which costs money and time for the regulator who is tasked with enforcing a standard.

It would also be good to speed up the workflow for developers saying hey, this thing looks weird did you really mean to do this?

And then further on, you could add a way to check it for constructability. My framer friends often get annoyed at whatever engineer because the way the structure is designed is materially inefficient or hard to construct.




Absolutely! That's our end-goal, to remove the painful back-and-forth of permitting. Once you solve blueprint understanding, the possibilities are enormous, from spell-check to material efficiencies, etc.
