About Articulate
Summary
Articulate builds an AI platform that reads 2D PDF construction plan sets and automatically flags coordination conflicts, missing information, and cross-discipline mismatches before construction begins. General contractors, architects, and engineers use it to replace slow manual drawing reviews and multi-day page-turn meetings. The platform drafts RFIs from detected issues and pushes them directly into Procore or Autodesk, cutting rework and keeping projects on schedule.
Go-to-market
Construction teams at the preconstruction stage adopt the platform by uploading PDF plan sets or connecting existing Procore and Autodesk projects, making the entry point self-serve with integrations into tools teams already use.

Automatic Construction Drawing Clash Detection
We help construction teams eliminate rework, delays, and drawing confusion before construction starts. We analyze PDF plans, detect clashes and inconsistencies across disciplines, and create draft RFIs so teams can resolve issues early. What we do: - Automatically detect clashes, missing information, and drawing mismatches - Align architectural, structural, and MEP plans so everything matches across sheets - Generate draft RFIs from issues we find - Replace long page-turn meetings with instant drawing analysis - Reduce rework and prevent schedule delays before boots hit the ground We integrate with: Procore, Autodesk, email, and the tools teams already use Teams use us to: - Save hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars per project - Catch design and coordination issues early - Reduce RFIs and prevent field fixes - Keep projects on schedule with fewer surprises Contact us at founders@usearticulate.com
