# Plan Monster

> AI-powered construction takeoff and project intelligence platform for subcontractors and construction professionals.

Plan Monster provides AI-assisted analysis of construction documents, including architectural plans, blueprints, and project communications, to generate takeoffs, extract project insights, and answer domain-specific questions.

## Core Capabilities

- Document analysis: Parses construction plans, drawings, and project files
- Quantity takeoffs: Generates estimated material and scope quantities from plans
- Retrieval and citation: Surfaces attributable references from public and proprietary sources
- AI question answering: Responds to user queries about construction documents and project context
- Communication intelligence: Extracts insights from connected data sources such as email (when enabled)
- Multi-channel delivery: Outputs results via web interface, SMS, iMessage, and WhatsApp

## Intended Use

Plan Monster is designed for professional and commercial use in construction workflows, including estimating, bidding, and project review.

It is not a substitute for licensed architectural, engineering, or code compliance review. Outputs must be independently verified against official documents, site conditions, and applicable regulations.

## Limitations

- AI-generated outputs may be incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated
- Quantity takeoffs are estimates and may be affected by plan quality or scaling issues
- Citations reflect available source data and may not be exhaustive or current
- The system does not provide legal, engineering, or safety-critical determinations
