AI Agent FAQ
The agent can read most common digital blueprint and spec file formats, including PDF and image files. If your files are in a rare or proprietary format, you may need to convert them before uploading.
The agent does not replace your CAD software. It works alongside your existing tools to extract and summarize information from your project files.
The agent provides high accuracy for clear, standard-format blueprints and specs. For complex or handwritten documents, you should review the output for potential errors.
The agent can process multi-sheet projects, but very large files may take longer to analyze. For extremely large projects, consider splitting files into smaller sections.
