Step 3
Search results are generated along with references
- Results are generated within 4 seconds.
- If an answer is found in your documents the document automatically opens at the relevant page and the section used in the answer is highlighted.
Use cases
Access all your specs & drawings whilst on the job site
- Inspections on the job site are a daily occurance and remembering to bring all the correct paperwork can be challenging, given elements on the project can be complex an interlinked.
- Needing to say things like "Let me check when I'm back in the office" or getting an answer wrong can slow down and disrupt key activities on site, or even have impacts on safety.
- With Civils.ai on your phone, simply type in key terms with natural language and find all the necessary paperwork.
- Our AI spins up and finds the answer and document you need.
Instantly verify and clarify questions against building codes
- Building codes can be notoriously hard to navigate with hundreds of interlinked clauses and complex language.
- Upload sets of building codes Civils.ai to help you with navigating the complexity of these documents.
- Simply type key terms to create summaries and instructions of the clause sections you need.
- Automically open the section in the original document for easy cross checking.
AI assisted tender reviews
- Tender specs can be 1000's of pages long and ensuring that tender submissions meet the requirements of the specs is a key part of tender review.
- We help your team get the exact wording of tender requirements at their fingertips.
- Simply type key terms to search through all the tender package instantly.

AI prompts
"We mainly use Civils.ai for retrieving information across multiple of our 400+ page tender specifications helping us check our proposals."
15 minutes
saved per prompt
"As a conservative estimate we saved 15 minutes per prompt, in certain cases like when questions arise during site visits it has saved us significantly more than this."
89%
results accuracy
"Auto checking our plans against tender specs is a game changer, the only improvement in accuracy we would like to see is more data captured from CAD drawings."
10x
return on investment
"You can't put a ROI on promoting project safety, but this is based upon the efficiency time cost saving and not considering any rework savings."
