Creator/founder of Markup & Validate

About

I work in BIM and digital delivery. For years, I watched AI get better at producing drawings while the checking stayed stuck in markup sessions and spreadsheets. So I built Markup & Validate: a review station where you redline the drawing set, run it against a 15-rule AEC standards profile, and sign off only when every finding has a named reviewer and written evidence behind it. Looks fine gets rejected. My ambition is simple. AI does the first 80 percent and humans own the last 10. The review deserves its own tool, because the review is the work now.

Markup & Validate - The human sign-off layer for AI-generated drawings

AI generates drawing sets in minutes. Nothing checks them. Markup & Validate is the review station for that gap. Redline sheets with familiar markup tools, run a 15-rule AEC standards profile covering title block, sheet numbering, dimensions, schedules, and revision control, then sign off only when the gate is clear. Every finding needs a named reviewer and written evidence. Sign-off stays blocked while anything is open. Export the annotated PDF, review JSON, and CSV record.
