Review findings. Accept, reject, or edit.
Each finding has a severity rating, exact code citation, confidence level, and suggested resolution. Accept what is right, reject what is not, edit the resolution when the AI missed the nuance. Callout learns from your decisions over time, calibrating to match your judgment. Export to CSV, Excel, or PDF.

Optional: add your firm standards and local codes.
When you are ready, upload jurisdiction amendment PDFs and add firm-specific requirements in plain English. Personal standards stay with your account; organization standards sync across all team members. Callout checks both alongside model codes on every review.

Your firm's standards
and local codes, checked automatically.

Every firm has standards that go beyond what model codes require: minimum equipment access clearances, duct leakage testing protocols, preferred control sequences, commissioning requirements. And every jurisdiction has local amendments that modify the base codes. Callout lets you codify both and enforce them on every review.

Add up to 20 firm-specific standards in plain English
Upload local jurisdiction amendment PDFs (city, county, or state)
Select which jurisdiction applies at review time
AI checks your standards and amendments alongside selected codes
Example Firm Standards
Equipment access clearance
Minimum 36" clearance on service side of all HVAC equipment, 24" on non-service sides.
Duct leakage testing
All supply and return ductwork must be tested to SMACNA Leakage Class 6 or tighter.
Thermostat placement
Thermostats to be located 48" AFF, away from exterior walls, windows, and supply diffusers.
These standards are checked on every review alongside your selected codes.

AI drawing review FAQ.

Does this replace an engineering review?
No. Callout is an AI-assisted first-pass tool. All findings must be verified by a licensed PE before use in construction documents. It catches the obvious issues so your PE can focus on the ones that need engineering judgment. What to look for in an AI plan review tool
What file types are supported?
PDF only. Multi-sheet drawing sets, single sheets, and multi-file uploads all work. Maximum 20 MB and 50 sheets per review session.
Do credits expire?
Never. Buy credits when you have a busy project load and use them whenever you need them. No time limits, no monthly minimums.

What is the Firm Standards Library?
It lets you add your own firm-specific requirements in plain English. Callout checks these automatically on every review alongside the selected codes. You can also upload jurisdiction amendment PDFs for local code checking.
