DesignFlow Build
HVAC & MEP Design Software for Contractors and Engineers
AI design narratives, submittal compliance review, and proposal generation built into the same platform that runs your AI takeoff and estimating.
For mechanical and MEP teams, design documentation, takeoff, and estimating usually live in disconnected tools. DesignFlow Build brings them together: AI-generated design narratives and submittal compliance review sit alongside the AI blueprint takeoff that reads your plans and the estimating that prices the work — so design documentation, compliance, and pricing stay connected from proposal through closeout.
AI design narratives
Generate mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design narratives from your project information — a documented basis of design you can review, edit, and issue.
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing narratives
Drafted from your project data
Editable, documented basis of design
Submittal compliance review
Review submittals against your specifications with traceability, so discrepancies surface during review rather than in the field.
Spec-to-submittal compliance review
Traceable findings and status
Catch discrepancies before installation
Proposals and engineering workplans
Build proposals (including SF330) and engineering workplans with deliverable planning, then track job costing and fee realization as the work progresses.

Connected to takeoff and estimating
The AI blueprint takeoff reads your plans and feeds the estimate, so quantities and equipment carry straight into pricing and procurement.

Coming soon: AI room survey with HAP-ready export
In active development: an AI room survey that reads architectural plans and exports a room schedule (CSV/Excel) formatted for import into load calculation tools such as Carrier HAP.

Frequently asked questions
Not today. In active development is an AI room survey that reads architectural plans and exports a HAP-ready room schedule (CSV/Excel), so you can move plan data into your load calculation tool without manual room-by-room entry.
No — it is built for MEP broadly: mechanical/HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and sheet metal, with trade-aware detection and a 200+ term MEP vocabulary.
