Today, Geom is coming out of stealth## Your plans, understood.Your drafting, automated.
Geom automates the manual work of architectural drafting. Inside the tools, workflows, and file formats you use today.

BUILDING IN COLLABORATION WITH THE NATION’S LARGEST PRODUCTION HOMEBUILDERS
“We are excited to partner with Geom as they build expertise in homebuilding. By taking a collaborative approach to our product development and architectural workflows, we believe this partnership has strong potential to streamline plan preparation and improve efficiency.”

A-2Platform
One of construction’s biggest bottlenecks is architectural production
Geom automates the tedious, manual work of turning a design into a fully documented, permit-ready set.

Intelligent plans, built on a semantic layer
Geom uses AI to understand what your drawings mean—not just what they look like. Walls, rooms, dimensions, options, references, and constraints become connected information that Geom can reason across and automate.
It delivers the intelligence BIM promised, without rebuilding your models, migrating platforms, or changing the tools and files your team already uses.

Geometry becomes meaningGeom turns lines, blocks, and annotations into real building elements—walls, rooms, openings, dimensions, and options—with properties and context. Relationships stay connectedGeom understands how elements relate across the plan set, so changes can carry through dependent dimensions, callouts, schedules, options, and sheets. Intelligence without migrationThe semantic layer works with the CAD workflows and file formats you already have. No model rebuilds, new authoring environment, or re-created plan library required.
A-4How it works
From plans to intelligence to results
- 01#### We ingest your existing plan sets DWG, DXF, PDF, and DWF — the formats you operate with today. No adaptation, no new authoring platform.
- 02#### Geom reads them semantically The semantic layer understands the meaning of and relationships within your drawings to enable automation in your workflows.
- 03#### Results are delivered Final PDFs and DWGs are produced per your workflow, ready for your team to review and submit for permit.
A-5Option solving example
Lot-level option solving
Geom creates a lot-level construction document with your options, without requiring specialized setup or weeks of complex option design. Draw your floor plans, elevations, and options, and let Geom take it the rest of the way through to permit-ready construction documents.
- No specialized setup per option or plan family
- Customer order maps straight to option semantics
- Geometry, dimensions, labels, layout resolved automatically

A-6Workflow integration
Fits inside the tools and workflows you use today
Whether your drafting is handled internally or outsourced, Geom fits into your existing process without requiring a new platform or workflow.
You keep your tools, your standards, and your process. Geom works the way you work today.
A-7Company
We’re building Geom for real-world homebuilding complexity
Geom brings together architects, homebuilding operators, and AI engineers. We believe architects and designers should spend their time solving complex problems and shaping the buildings of the future. They should not spend it on repetitive work computers can complete in a fraction of the time. We started Geom to make that possible.
