AI when you want it, Human when it matters.

We believe Artificial Intelligence is best utilized at the point of need. Never replacing, always empowering. You're in control. Our AI features are designed with this in mind:

QuickDraw.

Never type a dimension again
14"ø

In Canaveral, the sheet is the interface. Hold the "Q" key to see AI-generated suggestions for one-click dimension assignment or object type selection. Our computer vision models can read round, rectangular, and oval dimensions in your sheet, even if it's vertical.

Typing dimensions is yesterday's work. Stay in the flow with QuickDraw, saving precious seconds that add up to minutes that compound to hours and beyond.

SymbolSight reads your schedules and finds associated items in your plans, presenting them to you in a simple workflow. Quickly accept or reject the predictions for accelerated takeoff, without increasing your validation overhead. Map to an assembly for accurate takeoff.

No more hunting for scheduled items. We bring them to you.

SheetScan.

Automatic sheet numbers, names, and scales.

Turn your Canaveral project into a digital plan directory with automatically detected sheet numbers and descriptions. Our AI models understand page hierachy and structure to extract sheet labels and intent. Scale is set automatically to get you started quickly.

Less setup. More takeoff.

AutoTab.

Supervised autocomplete for run takeoff

Let the tab key do the work. Start taking off a run, and Canaveral's computer vision models will predict the end point of the current duct or fitting. Accept by hitting tab, or reject by hitting escape. Chain together multiple tabs to take off entire runs in seconds.

You're in the driver's seat, supercharged with AI.

AI for the skeptics and early adopters alike.

With Canaveral, you'll never be sifting through long, inaccurate, and incomplete lists of AI-generated output. Instead, you'll have contextual in-the-moment tools and shortcuts that feel like an extension of you.
