Built for architects, engineers & designers

Building code, working inside your project.

You know the building code. What costs you is the legwork: chasing an article through four others, confirming it still applies at this occupancy, and showing later that you did. BlinKode carries that legwork and shows its sources.

Your workflow

What each stage costs you, and what BlinKode carries

Four stages, all of them yours. The legwork below is real work you are doing today; every one of them has something running against it.

What it costs you today

Occupancy, construction type and area limits set the envelope, and which requirements even apply is still an open question.

Every decision needs a requirement confirmed, and confirming it means chasing an article through the ones it depends on.

Details multiply across sheets and disciplines. Checking is manual, one item at a time, and nothing you resolved is written down.

Completeness gets assembled and checked by hand, under a deadline, and anything missed earlier surfaces now, when fixing it means going back into the drawings.

A description of where each product runs, not a measured result. BlinKode does not decide. The people who do this work do.

The fit

What BlinKode brings to your project

CodeEase advises, here now. Codiag reviews and reports, coming soon.

CodeEaseHere now
Advises

An expert Code Assistant that knows the code in depth answers any building code question from the code itself, with the citation one click away. A skilled Project Assistant with a full grasp of your project works inside it: it brings the right articles onto the board, answers from them, and asks before it assumes.

CodiagFlowComing soon
On a sheet while you design

Codiag will read the sheet in front of you against the code and name each requirement not met: where it sits on the sheet and the sentence it does not meet.

CodiagProComing soon
On the whole package before you submit

The same review across the drawings and documents of a permit package, with a report that goes with the submission.

The handoff

When both are at your side

Codiag, coming soon, will work from the same project CodeEase keeps.
