What can Construction AI do for AEC teams?
| Task | How it helps, and the check |
|---|---|
| Questions on drawings | Answers questions about a drawing set, such as door counts or room areas. It reads the legend first and says when it can't read something; check answers against the sheets. |
| Takeoff on Mac and iPad | Counts, measures and prices directly on PDF plans in a Mac and iPad app, now in public beta. |
| Survey conversion | Converts vector survey PDFs into 3D point clouds, DXF, XLS and CSV for use in design software. |
Strengths and limitations
Strengths
- Says when it can't read something instead of guessing.
- The Mac and iPad app keeps drawings on your device.
- Free during the public beta.
Limitations
- Several features are in beta, including the Mac and iPad app and the Procore integration.
- Pricing for its web apps isn't published.

What happens to your data?
- For the Mac and iPad app, Construction AI says drawings stay on your device; chat questions and item names are processed by Amazon Bedrock, which it says does not train on this content.
- For its Procore service, plan data is sent to OpenAI's API, which it says does not use API data for training; plan data is kept for 90 days.
- Core infrastructure is in Canada, with some processing in the United States, according to its privacy policy.
CloudBrain’s view
An interesting, careful tool for estimators and site teams who live in PDF drawings, especially the on-device Mac and iPad app. Treat it as beta software: pilot it, and check every count and area against the drawings.
