Pain Points (Public)

Property owners and remodelers frequently lack access to original design source files because previous architects retain proprietary rights, leaving clients with only static PDF prints or raster drawings that cannot be edited, scaled, or submitted for new building permits without dimensional inaccuracies.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Manually reverse-engineer and draft layered, scale-calibrated DWG or DXF CAD drawings from static PDF floor plans and elevations, ensuring all dimensional measurements, wall thicknesses, and structural annotations match real-world building specifications.
